Fans have short memories. 5 years ago Mizzou ended the season ranked in the top 10 nationally, had its 4th straight NCAA appearance.
Spent a good portion of the next season ranked, before injuries and Dixons dismissal. Still made the NCAA tournament.
Yet somehow the Mizzou job is now considered a bad job. A good hire and it will be back in the top 3-4 in the SEC.
A good hire means committing money not just to the head coach. Also to the assistants as well as recruiting.
Also means Sterk fixing the compliance office.

rank these programs.
Indiana
Purdue
Notre Dame
Michigan
Arizona
Washington
Cal
Ucla
Iowa
Villinova
Syracuse
Louisville
Virginia
Missouri
you could argue all day bout who is the 'bigger' program, but if I were to use the metrics you guys are using Mizzou would finish in the bottom fourth of that list. Imagine if someone described Missouri as a lateral move on a Virginia or Arizona or Michigan board. They would lose their shite. Cause fans are gonna fan. Sports boards are not where intellects go to expand. And yet all of those would basically be lateral moves, as would most major state schools in most of the P5 plus big east. So throw in tOSU, Oklahoma, Tejas, Tenner, SC, and about 30 more and they are all in roughly the same position, all trying to win. The only thing separating them being how good their coach is, and how good their last coach was.
And BTW the top blue chip programs are only one mediocre coaching hire away from being just like the rest of us. See Indiana and UCLA for examples
You may now return to losing what's left of your collective minds over the word 'lateral'
and anonymous downvotes are for gaping vag's

Problem is is these two programs are going in different directions. The problem with MU is not just the basketball program but all the other things going on our campus. And lets face it if we are as great a BB program as we would like to think we are we would have been able to get some one better to coach us then the last four coaches we have had.
