It's no slight to Mizzou. Arkansas is home.


It's not that he left. It's the fact that he stopped recruiting for 12 months before he left. One could argue that MA is as much responsible for the current state of Mizzou's program as anyone else. His not bringing in a single recruit forced Haith to do nothing but transfers. Relying on transfers is a house of cards and Haith was smart enough to leave before it crumbled, leaving KA to pick up the pieces.

Let's be fair. He did guarantee that Otto Porter wouldn't come to Mizzou by sitting in his living room and lying to him the day before he took the Arkansas job.

Not just recruiting, but coaching too. Mizzou got snowbound in KC on their way to Stillwater his last season, so my dad and I made the trek to watch them practice while they were in town......it was the most unstructured and nonconstructive "practice" I've seen in any sport.

Needless to say, Oklahoma State shredded us the following day.
