re: Namon Wright recommits to Mizzou

Agree with everything you said. Most people wanted the big splash hire, and I was one of them. I wanted Howland more than Marshall because of Howlands past success, age, and motivation. I think he is motivated to start over and do it right, and at his age, I doubt he would of used us as a stepping stone like Marshall would of.

More than anything, this program needed some consistency in the HC dept. If Kim does well, that problem is solved, as we know he won't look elsewhere, hopefully won't be caught up in embarrassing scandals, and I'm sure he wants to prove his critics wrong by winning.

Whether he can recruit consistently at the D1 level is still a legit concern and totally understandable. We couldn't ask for a better start though with keeping this class together, and adding a few (especially if Mitchell commits).

I'm sure we all would like this hire to be an overwhelming success, not only for the program, but yes, because he is a True Son.
