If you had told me 20 years ago that Mizzou would lose 68 games in three seasons and go 2-16 in the mediocre SEC I would have never believed you. Spend some money on a real Div. 1 recruiter/coach.
I've been following the team for 43 years. I've paid my dues. Losing 68 games in three years is a travesty at any level of basketball. So chill out bro.
Yes. And that is irrelevant. I watched Kim play and loved the guy as a player. But he hasn't improved the results on the court. Stop it.
What are you 13? Give him a trophy for losing 68 games???? This is big boy sports. Bruh.
No I am 54 with a long pedrigee of Coaching for a living. Coached in 4 Final Fours and have dealt with wannabe Coach's like you that sit behind a fake name and judge others
Every time my most talented players left my program because they weren't willing to follow team rules and the players I had left were less talented They played hard but couldn't compete.
This is my real name. Lots of people on this board know me.
Are you really suggesting that the only way you can judge coaching success is if you've actually coached?
Obviously the only people who can comment on whether the band sucks are those who went to band camp.
Gotcha.
Gotcha.
What do you do to pay your bills? I would like to critique your performance. Doesn't matter if I have any experience in your area. I will give it a go. So wcowherd who are you?
A lot of Missouri State people wanted Steve Forbes in recent weeks thinking the administration would have the balls to get rid of Lusk. I think Mizzou should look at him. He'd win and recruit quite well in Columbia.
I'm a nuclear engineer. Feel free to criticize my performance. That has little to do with whether I can accurately assess the job Anderson did at Mizzou.
That's a little creepy. Just make sure you don't vote in the next election. Because if you have never been a mayor, senator or president you can't possibly evaluate their performance, right?
have an idea- the nature of sports teams is that they are going to have fans. In fact, those fans attending games, watching on tv, and buying apparel are the people that make the program profitable. And the nature of those fans is that they are going to have various opinions on the teams, players, and coaches. Many of those fans will not have even played at the NCAA level, not to mention coached. They're still going to have an opinion. Strange but true.

My orthopedic surgeon replaced my knee with a Fisher Price® See 'n' Say (at least it was the Farmer Eddie version), but I didn't criticize him because the only medical expertise I possess is from watching "Bones".
His name has come up a little. I am impressed with what he has done at ETSU and obviously his time with Gregg Marshall. I doubt he is high on the list at the moment because it seems pretty apparent that they want a guy that will energize the fanbase and get people to go back to Mizzou Arena. But that being said, he kind of reminds me of Brad Underwood a couple years ago, it seems like he will get a P5 job soon and although he isn't the sexiest hire, he could be a good one.
Anybody would have lost this many games with the violations and the bare cabinet Frank Haith left. So....
Whoever Mizzou hires it's going to take at least 3 years to be a competitor for the NIT. The on campus things have lower attendance and gave a black eye for incoming recruits.
Disagree with this. The turnaround time in basketball is shorter. The roster isn't great right now, but if the new coach can keep Barnett, Puryear, Phillips, and Walton those guys can be solid pieces if you surround them with an impact freshman or two, maybe a JUCO kid or a grad transfer.
The big black eye for incoming recruits is the lack of success the last three years. Mizzou has been a bottom barrel SEC program since Kim took over. That is the black eye. Of course, the flip side of the coin, is that a new coach could sell playing time to potential recruits. You'll have the chance to get big minutes from day one.
Frank Haith won 23 games his last year. He left Kim with two top 100-150 recruits in Namon Wright and Jakeenan Gant. He also left a sophomore who was a top 50 recruit (J3) who is a huge piece on a team that could win the NCAA Tournament this year. Oh and he also left a top 100 recruit who was also a sophomore in Wes Clark and a solid transfer from Notre Dame in Cam Beidscheid.
The NCAA stuff absolutely hindered things for Kim. It wasn't a perfect situation by any means but there are a lot of coaches who would have done better. I like KA and feel bad for him, but this notion that he inherited something awful like what Tom Crean faced his first year at IU or what Scott Drew inherited at Baylor is just not accurate.
There are not many opinions at the arena so those would not matter! I believe KA was set to fail in the first place with all the investigations etc going on. He did it the right way, but was not good enough. He does not even argue that. The new guy will have it easier because the program is back on a solid foundation to build on. It is a shame for KA, but a bigger shame for Coach Loos. Hopefully he gets to stay on
