If 2 of Sexton, Goodwin, Tillmon, Stewart, Bailey or comparable recruits commit would be a great start


0 of those will commit.

I also said or comparable. If none do commit then what I see on the Italy trip and during the season. Will have to show me that the team with everyone scheduled to return the following year will be able to compete for an NCAA bid in the 2017-2018 season.

Also no.
This staff can't recruit. We have plenty of data.

Probably true, but actually winning some recruiting battles would go a long ways.

I hear ya but I am done personally with the soft expectations. Being in the tourney is the expectation and then compete in it. Competing to just make it is not the expectation.

Finishing top 4 in a horrible SEC is expected now. Not fighting to make top 1/2. We are not a UK or UNC but it's almost as if we have forgotten who we are and the type of program we have historically.

The days of finishing at or under .500 but talking about how the team showed us some things are over. It's time for results. Hopefully KA can produce but this is year 3. That's plenty of time in hoops that has high turnover and fewer numbers needed to be replaced.

.500 might get ya to it, but regardless of record, better make NIT or NCAA this year.


Looks like KA is gone next year by your standards!

He should have been fired this year. He can't hold a team together to even begin the rebuilding process. He can't recruit, keep control of his team, or fricking coach for that matter.

I think Fulford has done a decent job on this front. Opened a lot of doors. The rest of the staff can't close apparently.

Fulford is the one bright spot on the staff.

Best case scenario is that the team improves enough next year that KA is worthy of a 4th year. To me that would indicate that in you 4 Mizzou would be a tournament level team. Otherwise Mizzou is at least 2-3 more years away.

I ain't lowering my expectations just because KA has sucked donkey dicks the first two years.


Have you ever actually seen this particular act performed? First, donkey genitalia is massive, which requires unique oral flexibility and manual dexterity to hold the thing in place.

All very difficult even IF the donkey stands still. But multiple trips to Thailand and countless hours in video rabbit holes suggests that you'd have an easier time juggling chainsaws than trying to keep an equine motionless during oral copulation.

Let's not forget that these beasts kick like, well, a donkey. So there's a level of anticipatory head-bobbing (no pun intended) necessary to avoid a rigorous concussing.

If you're trying to assert that KA didn't do something applause-worthy, find another analogy.
