I feel next year we can be just as good as we were this year.  We already have a top 100 recruit in Michael Dixon(point gaurd), and a skilled big man in Keith Dewitt.  We are also pursuing a 6'10" center from New York that goes by the name of Jarrid Famous.  He is suspected to make his decision in the next 10 days, and is leaning heavily toward Mizzou.  W ...(more)

This is the reruit I was holding out for, and now I've read on a Gonzaga blog that he's heading to South Florida.  Does anyone know if this is simply rumors and speculation, or is it a sure thing?  He's supposed to be announcing officially tonight at his jersey retirement ceremony, but I just wanted to know if anyone really knows anything.

   Mizzou Head Coach Mike Anderson has been mentioned on ESPN and FSN as a candidate for coach of the year.  Looking around the league, it seems that he is not only an option for the honor, but possibly the most deserving.  If you look at the Tigers and their performance compared to even last season, you'll see that Coach Anderson has his kids playing very smart, very effici ...(more)

Who do you think will win the Big 12 in 2010?

 OK, now im not gonna say that Mike Anderson should have been the coach of the year, i dont know enough about all the coaches.

But Anderson was far more deserving than Bill Self, Anderson took a team that was suppose to finish Seventh in the Big 12, and had a more successful season than the Jayhawks, who were predicted to finish third.  We won the big 12 tournament w ...(more)

As much as it pains me to say it, Congratulations on a great season.  (Man that hurt more than I thought it would.)  Hopefully you guys can keep up the progress of this year, although I believe it might be with a different coach.  It would be nice to see the KU/MU rivalry renew in hoops.

UCONN is tough, I have them taking it all this year.  I enjoyed the ga ...(more)

 I don't know if anyone has noticed this or not, but ESPN is reporting that Georgia is offering Mike Anderson their head coaching job.  As Tiger fans and alums, we CAN'T let this happen.  Mizzou is a much better place for Anderson that Georgia.  He will always be overshadowed by the football team at UGA; at Mizzou, basketball has historically always been the number one prior ...(more)

 Hey everybody.  I just wanted to say thanks on behalf of all Mizzou fans for not comin around here talkin smack after your teams were knocked out of the tourney. Most of the games this year have been great!  As for Memphis i thought it was a great game and like the poster on another thread said "if Mizzou would have let up at all we would have gotten beat"&nb ...(more)

This is great!  I was nervous there when Calipari took the job at Kentucky, I didn't think Anderson would stay at Mizzou with the offers from Memphis and Georgia!  But, 7 years is perfect!  He took Mizzou to the Elite 8 in 3, I can't wait to see what is in store for the next 7!  Anderson had average seasons his first 2 at Columbia, but he was in the building process and reco ...(more)

It sucks to see it end like that.  I mean I'm so happy they went far and I hope they pull out all stops to keep Anderson in Columbia, but it sucked to go down like that.  They hung in with UConn pretty well.  UConn gave them a lot of time to come back in that game.  But, blown points off turnovers, bad 3 point attempts, and the fear of even entering the paint, killed them. & ...(more)

In order of my preference: 

1.Tom Izzo (Mich St) - I love this coach. he is the real deal... he is just a great all around coach and consistently has good teams. he is about family, school pride and winning traditions. He would embrace the fans and school history and I think would fit in good with us.

2. Billy Donovon (Florida) - I know he keeps rejecting us - but if h ...(more)
