The time for "I told you so's" is over. KA should never have been hired, many pointed it out before the hire and after. The guy who did it rode off into the sunset so he can't be held accountable.
What needs to occur now is discussion of what happens next. Program damage control. Should he get that third year or not? Sadly, this has less to do with Kim in my opinion than it does with what will harm the program the least. A third dreadful year will do more damage as will making the job less desirable by firing somebody too quickly so that qualified candidates are nervous about taking it. We're essentially screwed either way, the only question is which will cause the least rectal bleeding?

Yeah, the "I told ya so" serves no purpose now other than rubbing it in. For the record, I was a Howland supporter, but once that ship sailed and we settled for KA, I was willing to give him a chance. Especially after that press conference he had and his general philosophy on hard nosed basketball. I think as fans we owe him this year to turn things around. I just don't see it happening and Rhoades needs to start looking and revising that list we know he has.

I don't buy this at all. If KA has two or three shite years in a row without showing signs of progression, most coaches that would be on the list will understand the firing. A competent coach with good recruiting can turn this around pretty quickly. Alot easier than a football program for all the obvious reasons.
I was really hoping that KA would be a pleasantly good hire with his Mizzou history, I just don't think it's meant to be.
