I have been amazed at how bad Mizzou is at branding and creating a cultural identity tie to the entire state. Using other Midwestern states as an example,...

[quote]too skilled[/quote]
Or just a massive change in the rules. Most NBA euro steps are actually 3 step travels nowadays. No handchecking/any form of physical defense.
It doesn't take any skill to draw foul calls when they blow the whistle at first touch of contact for any star.
Better lo...

[quote]Snyder was just too early in his career[/quote]
For sure, but he's arguably the the best since Norm. 4 Tournament appearances in his first 4 years with an Elite 8 run, 2 1st round wins, and only 1 first round exit. Followed by 2 NIT bids, and a bad start and a really young team (fired). That...

[quote]least athletic in the SEC[/quote]
Athleticism is not the problem. SEC basketball has historically been low on skill, high on athleticism, and that is why it sucked for decades.
Our team is low on skill. We have plenty of athleticism.
People use Wisconsin as an example. As an alum o...
re: Sweet Sixteen or bust?
Posted by TigerAndBadger on 2/10/21 at 1:11 pm
As much as I'd love to see this team make a run, I don't think they have the consistency in creating and scoring that it takes to win more than 2 games in the tourney.
We only have 1 guy who can consistently create opportunities, Pinson. He is hot/cold. Tilmon's effectiveness is dictated by how ...

Way overvalued IMO. 25 would be more appropriate. I don't like the Conference Wins/Losses metric. Some conferences smash others. ...

It is crazy to me how the South has not adopted wrestling. Without a doubt, it is the best technique builder for linemen and defensive players outside of football, and perhaps even better. Wrestling teaches body control and lea...

Don't know if y'all are just realizing this, but there are old heads in league office who don't think we belong here, and try to screw us at every turn. Some specific refs certainly do.

Running almost directly in front of Mckennie on that break up the left side. Have to either book it and make a move past the RB along the touchline or drift inside and make the RB choose. What happened is the RB stayed with both until he got help and then couldn't make the pass/intercepted. ...

Looks and plays young. Can tell technical aspects are being developed, but not quite there with positioning and understanding the game. Doesn't look bad, but just in comparison to guys playing at top tier clubs; the quality difference shows. ...

Not bad, but just not connecting the way the rest of the players have. Llanez looks like a YNT player out there. Can tell talent, but not quite putting it together. Cannon hasn't had much to do, but doesn't create much going forward. Probably has someth...
