Her kid is supposed to play for Cuonzo ...

Zero chance she fires him.

They'll both get their walking papers in 2023 or 2024.

She will not do anything before the expiry date of his employment contract.

My guess: She will meet with CM on Monday to "discuss the future." An announcement of some kind will be made on Tuesday.

I think he's gone, but does he go gracefully, or make it ugly. (IE, play the race card) And if he threatens to get ugly, will DRF have the stomach to go thru with it?

That's the dumbest fricking reason ever for keeping a coach. Seriously, you're buying that bs that a coach will be retained because of a walk-on?

How long have you been a Mizzou fan? We do stuff different here.

Who is available that would be a good fit here besides Kim English?

I strongly feel like we should go take someone’s “proven” coach.

What do you mean by “fit”?

I would have a conversation with the following:

Jamie Dixon
Gregg Marshall
Chris Mack

Dennis Gates - Cleveland State
Grant McCasland - North Texas
Jeff Lindner - Wyoming
Jerome Tang - Asst from Baylor

Bonus:
Wes Miller - UNC Greensboro
Chris Steele - Xavier

Uh, Wes Miller is at Cincinnati, and Travis Steele may get fired at XU. That's okay, you got bad info off the net, right? MU isn't firing CCM anyway!

Jamie Dixon - MEH
Gregg Marshall - ABSOLUTELY. Though his Bobby Knight approach may not work with the woke administration.
Chris Mack - MEH

Dennis Gates - HARD PASS
Grant McCasland - MEH
Jeff Linder - Intriguing.
Jerome Tang - MEH
Wes Miller - HARD PASS
Chris Steele - MEH
Kim English - ABSOLUTELY F***** NOT YET


Additional (to supplement the MEH and HARD PASS):

Niko Medved (Colo St)
Matt McMahon (Murray)

Yeah. I hope (without rationality) that if Mizzou is ready to move on from Martin, that they’re ready to go after someone who has proven they can win at a Power 5 level.

I would prefer Marshall if we are choosing from that list.

Maybe we can become a place of second chances

Good fit, who gives a frick? Hire someone that can win basketball games. There is no such thing as a good fit. You pay a coach money to win games, if they get a better offer and feel like it's a better deal, they leave. End of story.

"Good fit" is just another way to spell "cheap".

This. All of this.

Go pay Gregg Marshall 3 MIL /year with incentives to 5 MIL for making the Final 4.

I have my nut cup on for

"Well, if we wanted to keep Coach Martin we couldn't have him recruiting players with only 2 years left on his contract. It was obvious we had to extend his current contract."
