We should do more dribble hand offs.

Gates buyout is $20 million.

Dude is taking a $4-5 million salary from the university for another 2 years ...

Our program is effectively under an NCAA death penalty until then.

I'm not sure anyone on this team can shoot. So instead, hold the ball - let the shot clock run down, drive, flail and fling.

Crews can shoot.

Reason he draws doubles and best off ball defender.

Also why he jacks wild shots sometimes ... he's half their offense (Mitchell bully ball is the other)

Fair, but as you say that can cause him to try to much. When he is on a streak look out.

Heard it drops to 9 million after NEXT spring ...

Worst basketball coach contract in Mizzou history.

I get Suitcase created this situation ... but 25 million for a .500 coach from a mid major ...

Laird has his work cut out for him to get the program trajectory back on track

If he goes, one class probably goes.

Can’t do it.

You never keep a coach based on players.
