How long would it take the new coach to turn around Hoops program?

Assuming a quality hire of course. In theory, it shouldn't take as long as football. 2-3 years reasonable with the current roster?

MSU is in year 2. The next Mizzou coach if he can recruit well should be able to do the same.

Why Alden? Why???

Go back further and add Self and Cal.
Neither would still be here but the hoops program would be in a better place.
Can add Painter to that as well.

Typically, I think you're right. I think KA has soooooo buried this program though that it may take even longer. This class coming in is shot so year 1 you can forget about. Year 2, legit recruits will be true freshmen. We never recruited 1 and done talent, so a new coach won't be able to bring that in given where the program now is. Year 3 is probably, realistically, the earliest I would expect .500 or better.

It's going to be awhile. This program is on life support.

Roberts looks really good assuming the new coach could hang onto him.

I think by year 2 we could see real progress.
I am assuming that after the season 1-2 players transfer. That would leave Roberts and 3-4 open scholarships. 1 or 2 should be grad transfers. The other 1-2 probably need to be 4 year transfers.
That will open up 2018 where there is s lot of regional talent.
By year 2 the players here now would be upperclassmen, the transfers would help, as well as the 2018 recruits.

I see a slow climb even with a good coach. Decent recruits will have to see some winning to want to come to Mizzou. 4-5 years before the team is "Pretty good."
Unfortunately, that's about the time the "good coach" will move on.

No way look at how SLU is recruiting. It's not taking Ford 4-5 years for good recruits to pay attention.
If Mizzou hires a good coach, he will be able to recruit. Good players will be available immediately.

What does "turn around" mean?
You need about 4-5 years to know whether a football coach is going to succeed (even if it hasn't actually happened yet). Basketball takes half as long.
After two years you should know if you've got a good or bad basketball coach.

quote:yep. If it means going to the dance it could be awhile. You have to get a good class and that's not happening until next year if you are being very optimistic. Then they have to show up on campus and adapt to college and learn how to play. Then the next year they could be ok. So 2020 if things go VERRRRRY well. Unless we get a 6'11" one and done.

It took Martin 4 years to get to the NIT at SC, he's now in year 5 and may make the dance

If the coach can recruit Missouri, could be back in the NCAA tournament as early as 3 or 4 seasons.
2018 and 2019 have really good talent in Missouri. Pair players like Ramey, Watson, Bishop, Leech, & Mckinney together with a veteran or 2. That's a good team.

You forgot hellems. He is blowing up faster than any other recruit in the state. Scored 47 the other night for Chaminade, something Tatum never did.

Yea you can add Hellems, Davis, Thatch, Lathon, and Gordon in those classes.
All are P5 level of players.
None are 1 and done, so could build for a fun run together.

For Mizzou, Thatch, Gordon, and Ramey will be almost impossible. Especially Thatch and Gordon.
But the rest are all up in the air, and have a fair shot at.

1.5, assuming current roster...which isn't a good assumption at this point.
But Phillips and Puryear senior year, I could see NCAA tournament with a good coach.

A good coach that can recruit?
Two years.
Combination of the average talent we have now and decent talent that is recruited, it wouldn't take long.
Anderson should be fired ASAP though. We're 5-14, I mean are you fricking kidding, 5-14?!
