I hope he gets his game back, because those games he played showed he had a ways to go. He honestly hurt us more than he helped. Martin probably should have left him on the bench. [Reply]

We had 6 scholarship players. We had 0 depth
MPjr HAD to play. It wasn't a "luxury." Playing Porter Jr was a necessity [Reply]
Porter didn't have to play. Mizzou fans should be forever thankful that he cared enough to try when he wasn't close to 100%. In the era of AAU and NBA mercenaries, that's a pretty rare trait.
As far as his play when he came back, I can't say I'm too surprised. He had no legs. Do you guys remember what Jordan looked like in the spring of 1995 when he came back? He was healthy and rested, and he still didn't have any lift compared to the next fall.
Wherever MPJ goes, I'll root for him. Hell, I'll buy NBA 2K19 and start a franchise with the team that drafts him. [Reply]

You can't be serious. After CVL (yes, CVL) went down and Barnett decided to do other things, we needed warm bodies. MPJ HAD to play. [Reply]

Yep...I'll be buying his jersey too. Hoping for a huge success. His commitment to Mizzou changed everything. [Reply]
