Sure, he's a great guy and all, but I haven't given a shite about MU basketball since 2012.

That's just fricking sad.

Something's got to give here. I get that he was a bridge hire, but when do we declare the bridge completed?

Fire him now, get the coaching carousel started early. This guy isn't getting us anywhere, not now, not ever.

Enjoy your retirement Kim, thanks for everything.

If it was still a mix of his and Haith's guys, maybe.

But it's not.

First year with a full roster of guys that he made relationships with. Unlike football with so many recruits and recruiters, KA made personal relationships with each kid and their families.

The one primary objective for KA was to clean up the culture and give the next guy a clean slate to build on.

You remove him now and you risk the culture spinning out of control and losing the one thing that he's been able to succeed at, cleaning house.

That should be enough to justify keeping him till the end of the season.

But the guy should get a crack at conference play with a full roster of his guys.

There's no benefit during a coach less than a third of the way into the season.
Sterk can contact agents and gage interest with a sitting coach.
If this type of play continues Mizzou's season will end day 1 of SEC tournament, then move to fire him.

So since you don't give a shite about BB then we should fire him? Well OK then.

Why?

To avoid looking as clueless as LSU.

Firing KA mid season would be tough on what little recruiting he is able to do.

I think Mizzou should go after Scott Drew from Baylor. He makes less than $2 million and is a good coach and Recruiter.

He was born in Missouri and his brother coaches in the SEC. If we can pay $3 to $5 million a year we may be able to lure him away from Baylor.

Now struggling to Miami Ohio. At least no one has to endure the torture of having to watch on TV.

I know it's apples and oranges, but the Rams just fired Fisher mid season.

Which makes me happy.

Now for KA...
