Logan has a 7'3" kid, Jamarian Sharp, and Mizzou transfer Mario McKinney. The 7'3" kid had 20 points, 9 rebounds and 6 blocks, he has committed to Western Kentucky. McKinney played 47 of the possible 50 minutes and scored 50 points for Logan. Anybody know what happened with him at Mizzou?
 
Hey Terry, just not a fit. Don’t think there were any external issues. Maybe expected more PT. I did not follow MiZOU much last year. Turned today’s game off at half. Missed a good second half I guess.

I haven't kept up with them much in the last few years myself but since I don't do crowded places these day I've been watching more games on TV. They pulled out the OT victory today after playing horrible against Aurburn. I think they had about 40 turnovers, one kid for Auburn blocked 13 shots in that game and Mizzou couldn't hit FT's while Auburn shot about 90% at the line.
Raiders and Lady Raiders are both averaging a hundred or more to start the season. Raiders travelled to #21 NEO today and after nearly an hour delay because of a tornado warning they beat them by about 10 and scored over 100 again. Next up is a game in St.Louis Wed. The Ladies won at Ark. Baptist by about 40 today and put up over 100 again. Different looking stuff goin on here these days.

False. He got in a fight, called his buddies from StL, they rolled in guns heavy for retribution. He was told to leave. It wasn’t the only physical altercation he was involved in. Cuonzo gave him no options. He was told to leave.
 
MAC beat John A Logan there yesterday by double digits. MAC is pretty salty again.
Sounds like Region 16 could be interesting this year, I figure Moberly is pretty good again but I haven't heard anything about them yet.
I've seen nothing about the teams, rosters or schedules on the Region website, I wonder if anybody is going to get that going again.

Is everybody in the region playing each other 3 times? I'm sure that Moberly will be good again. I miss the good ole' days of the Region 16 Board and everybody talking about their teams. I miss Herb's website too.
They are according to the 3R schedule I have. Willie at 3Rivers ran it last year but there's nothing on it so far this season. I'm sure he has plenty to do managing the new facility here that also has other events besides basketball. Maybe somebody with a some tech skills will pick it up even we don't have the message board thang we had a few years ago. It was nice to get all the scores and region standings easily from that site.

Have heard basically the same version of this. You watch him play, it takes you about 5 seconds to see he's an absolute turd. He wouldn't be at Logan scoring 50 if he weren't a serious problem.

That's what I thought when I saw him at Jeffco in the HS playoffs. Only time I've actually seen play. Can't imagine the Mizzou staff didn't see him enough to know that. I reckon he don't get a chance to play 47 minutes every night.

Zo had to know this. You think he took him just because of the push to get the StL players? It probably wouldn't help Zo's efforts to pass. Not sure what it does to take him and then send him packing.

I think between it being his first real shot an STL kid and needing to balance the classes, he probably felt the need to reach a bit. Get lucky and turn the kid around. Obviously didn't work. Sometimes those types of kids figure it out, most of the time they don't. And my guess is, he wasn't good enough to deal with the baggage and attitude.
