Not having Tilmon the last 2 games has hurt. If they had him, they probably win the last 2. (Definitely the Arky game) The Ole Miss game was just an abortion all the way around. And let’s not forget that ugly second half against Bama, even though they held on for the win.
The truth is, Mizzou has looked a bit listless since the second half of that Bama game. Not sure what happened, but damn they just fell off a fucking cliff. They’ve gone from a potential Top 3 or 4 seed in the NCAA tourney to potentially being on the bubble if they drop a couple more. An epic collapse that only Mizzou can pull off. :-)
They’ve tried everything it seems like, coaching wise. Just burn the entire basketball program to the fucking ground. They haven’t been relevant since they left the Big 12. SEC has worked out good for the football program and for baseball, but has absolutely destroyed basketball. And it’s not even like the SEC is that great of a basketball conference. :-)
Like I said, just burn it to the fucking ground and be done with it . . . . . . [Reply]

They haven't tried EVERYTHING. They've made 3 "cute" hires in a row.
They haven't worked out. Because they were low-percentage plays.
Haith, they were banked on him being able to turn it up at a school that better supported basketball.
Anderson, they were banking on nostalgia and being tough and pithy to resurrect the Norm years (because a bunch of dumb old boosters forgot what Norm's tenure was like after 94).
Martin, they were betting he would suddenly elevate his recruiting and lovk down st. louis. it looked good for the first 9 months or so.
Dude's recruiting is below average. Just isn't good enough. And he's not a good in-game coach, and he thinks basketball is still played the way it was in 1998.
Make a good hire and it comes back quick. Make bad hires and it stays where it is. [Reply]
