Hes what, $3million a year? will they up that? [Reply]

It really just seems likes it the same recycled product (polished turd) rolled out ever year. Same but different.
It’s a shame because I LOVED Missouri basketball growing up in Mid Mo, but the lack of success and imop the move the the SEC have made it hard to watch.

The difference is that this turd is far shinier than any of those from the past several years. I've watched more Mizzou BB this year than the last 5 combined. I don't expect them to do anything and figure they'll be a one and done in the tournament, but at least they've kept my interest this year. [Reply]

Size second.
Then one of athletic ability, basketball skill (ball handling, passing).
Then, a distant last place, ability to shoot.
And the fucking moron still hasn't learned that his way is trash and doesn't translate to any success, outside of a one and done tourney appearance every few years. [Reply]

Yeah I can't lie I'm not as huge of a Mizzou basketball fan as I used to be. The last decade has been rough.
2011-2012 season was great but ended terribly and then we moved to the SEC and haven't been good since. 1 one and done tournament appearance since then.
And not alot of hope going forward right now. I like Cuonzo but we'll always be mediocre at best with him. Atleast he's better than Kim.
The move to the SEC was still the right move financially but I really really miss the Big 12 rivalries. Like alot. I miss them in football but especially basketball. Conference play just isn't the same anymore.
Football and basketball have both been below average since 2014. 7 years of not much to cheer for or look forward to. [Reply]
Yep, they'll never get anywhere with Martin. They've been OK but inconsistent this year. I look for them to make the tourney and be one and done. [Reply]
