Deep ties in St Louis. Proven track record.

I never liked his style of play or thought he was a great gameday coach, but legitimately believed he’d get enough talent to at least have us relevant. That hasn’t/isn’t happening.

If he can’t recruit...Can anyone tell me what he does well?

I'm a big Cuonzo fan, but his recruiting has been a significant disappointment.

I can't even defend 2 consecutive losing seasons plus this current recruiting "class"

Its really frustrating.

He should be doing better with these classes.

I dont even know what to think at this point.

In his defense if Tilmon and smith don’t miss as much time as they did, mizzou would have finished over .500, but continue

They played better without Tilmon and Smith.

Over .500 is defensible now? If you said that if Tilmon and Smith hadn’t been hurt, we would’ve gone to the tournament, then we’ve got something. Not .500.

Nope, just answering to what KCMO said.

i warned at the time of hire he was a mediocre recruiter. I thought maybe Mizzou gave him some advantages his previous stops didn't give him that could help him become a high level recruiter.

I was wrong.

He has a couple but those don't make teams. You have to recruit talent with every kid that comes in to build a quality team. He has never done that.

Quinn Snyder was the last coach to bring talent to Mizzou and coaches since have had a hard time convincing studs to come to Mizzou especially from the state.(High School recruits)
