I just can't blame Haith really. I mean how many coaches could take so many new and different parts, put them together and still have a decent season in only thier second year with the program.

Mizzou's shooting just went cold in the end. They stopped attacking the rim with the big guys. Bowers needed to just drive the basket ball instead of settling for outside shots too. The defense also failed in the end.

But I'll give credit to Henderson. Thier team will be in trouble when he's gone. I don't like the guy as a person but respect him as a player. He's good when he's on and he was on last night.

I'll watch the ncaa tourny whether they lose or not, they have some time to correct their weaknesses.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of some of his in-game strategy, but that happens with pretty much any coach. I think Haith has done a solid job of cleaning up the recruiting mess; he managed to find us enough depth that losing Dixon didn't cripple us. I think next year will be very telling of how he's going to fare.

I'm by no way suggesting Haith has to go jafo, but I really don't think it was a well coached game. And yes, overall, it has to be kept in mind that this is a patchwork team because of MA's refusal to recruit. However, the things talked about don't have much to do with who is actually on the court. Haith will obviously get his chance and we should know more next year when we have more of his own players.
