On the eve of the annual Braggin Right game, I reflect by  FIJITiger
Is there an archive or a Tigerboard Vault - DevilsAdvocate KC - 3/24/25 20:48:44
     Prior to that is archived offline(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 3/24/25 23:21:02

Most Entertaining Season since? - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/24/25 19:46:02
     2023 was more entertaining.(nm) - Harvey Specter MU - 3/25/25 08:16:31
          along with a dozen other seasons since Norm retired (nm) - zounami MU - 3/25/25 13:18:50
     Most fun have been - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/24/25 23:24:39
          Good List(nm) - Genco98 MU - 3/25/25 06:45:04
               agreed, although some of them were before my time as a - zounami MU - 3/25/25 15:05:06
     Since 2012 - FIJItiger MU - 3/24/25 23:18:20
          I think 2 years ago was more fun(nm) - TheWildcat MU - 3/25/25 08:50:48
          And 2009 beats both of them but the problem with that.... - BandG MU - 3/25/25 08:21:28
     The one before zounami existed - alwaysright MU - 3/24/25 21:51:28
     While the end was disappointing, overall it was very - go tigers MU - 3/24/25 21:39:27

          Elite 8 Mike Anderson - Genco98 MU - 3/25/25 07:00:24
               2012 flamed out in the tourney but it was a better regular - TheWildcat MU - 3/25/25 08:51:26
          Seems close to right. - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/24/25 21:01:11
          22-12 ... were you in a coma during the 2000s and 2010s - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:59:30
     It's entertaining because of the wide open style but the - alstl MU - 3/24/25 20:25:10
          It was more frustrating than entertaining. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:28:26
     I miss the early Quin years(nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 3/24/25 20:05:05
          He did well with Norm's guards - Gilbert, Dooling and Rush - alstl MU - 3/24/25 20:48:21
               Rush was not a Norm recruit. Rush publicly stated that - alwaysright MU - 3/25/25 10:23:58
               Wasn't Rush - o'lineydisciple MU - 3/25/25 06:17:23
                    Rush commited to Missouri before Norm left(nm) - alstl MU - 3/25/25 06:28:22
                         No he didn’t. - alwaysright MU - 3/25/25 10:24:15
          Norm, Quin, MA... when we hired good coaches we had - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:11:33
               Keep in mind you said you would have fired Norm(nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 3/24/25 20:19:41
                    He was a good coach, just not a Final Four-caliber coach. (nm) - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:23:19
     lol, so 22-12 was more entertaining than 30-5 or 31-7 ??... - zounami MU - 3/24/25 19:49:30
          3 top 10 wins - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/24/25 20:03:36
               This SEC was also demonstratively the best conference - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/24/25 20:21:40
                    Absolutely the best conference, but we got worse down the - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:24:27
               No kidding especially the one over KU to me priceless(nm) - oldtgr MU - 3/24/25 20:19:20
                    While KU didn't end high - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/24/25 20:46:18
                    The loss to Illinois sucked... we shouldn't even be playing - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:20:19
                         they opened the season at number 1 with a massive - tman MU - 3/24/25 20:37:30
               so 3 games out of 34, in a 22-12 season... and KU was - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:09:50
                    yes (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 3/24/25 20:14:07
                         Haith's worst season was 23 wins, and he was ran out of town - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:17:42
                              Haith was not run out of town. He left on his own accord - MizzouAstro MU - 3/25/25 07:40:58
                                   wrong... that's revisionist history (nm) - zounami MU - 3/25/25 13:17:34
                              I think you’ve got your groups confused - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/24/25 20:19:32
                                   I supported Haith (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 3/24/25 20:34:23
                                        yes you did, I remember that (nm) - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:35:56
                                   "There was a lot of support for Haith"– you can't be serious - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:22:45
                                        none of that happened(nm) - MizzouAstro MU - 3/25/25 07:41:18

                                        perhaps I don’t remember it accurately - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/24/25 20:29:13
                                             he's making sh*t up(nm) - MizzouAstro MU - 3/25/25 07:41:32
                                                  wrong, clown... - zounami MU - 3/25/25 13:16:54
                                             I didn't want neither haith nor cuonzo fired - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/24/25 20:37:46
                                                  yes, I think that one was quite unanimous - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/24/25 20:41:13
                                                       I could have lived with one more season - Gavin Citrus MU - 3/24/25 20:45:13
                                             btw, Fiji was also a Haith supporter... and he's a fairly - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:32:16
                                                  Fiji is pretty rational when it comes to basketball - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/24/25 20:33:56
                                                       exactly... Trump broke him, unfortunately (nm) - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:34:38
                                             yeah, but you're one of the few rational fans on TB (nm) - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:30:10
                                                  what’s wild is Haith, Cuonzo, and Gates - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/24/25 20:35:07
                    yes - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 3/24/25 20:11:55

                         he said it was more entertaining than our 30-5 and 31-7 ... - zounami MU - 3/24/25 20:13:19

                                        it's been made and all you do is dismiss points, repeatedly - 90Tiger STL - 3/24/25 20:36:19
What kind of roster will it take for a coach like Gates to - zounami MU - 3/24/25 19:21:50
     Like the one this season (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 3/24/25 23:19:26

               There’s a reason most teams that make the final 4 - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 19:37:00
                    by March, Gates couldn't even beat a team full of D2 players - zounami MU - 3/24/25 19:41:44

          – with that said, defense is where coaching has the greatest - zounami MU - 3/24/25 18:57:05
     It was the same story both years. - alwaysright MU - 3/24/25 17:35:17

                         It's not about whether it worked of not, it's what - alwaysright MU - 3/25/25 16:17:18
     When you have no rim protectors inside… - Outsider MU - 3/24/25 15:29:54
          if only we still had vanover - phrejd STL - 3/24/25 15:34:31
               We do he’s called Trent Burns - ferret mcmarmot MU - 3/24/25 18:08:12
               Vanover might have worked out great if stayed close to rim (nm) - oldtgr MU - 3/24/25 16:02:57
                    unpossible. we needed him out near mid court setting - phrejd STL - 3/24/25 16:26:45
                         True his 21 3’s were devastating (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 16:31:56
                              yeah those won us a lot of games - phrejd STL - 3/24/25 16:47:53
                                   True those 21 3’s are so much worse than the - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 16:56:22
                                        you think so (nm) - phrejd STL - 3/24/25 17:04:00
                                             Yes it’s terrible that he wasn’t used - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 17:16:59
                                                  yeah his 3s won us a lot of games - phrejd STL - 3/24/25 17:22:01
                                                       More like cost Mizzou 24 games all because - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 17:32:47
                                                            you think so (nm) - phrejd STL - 3/24/25 17:45:27

                                                                           He’s definitely the reason Mizzou was terrible (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 17:58:53

          basically (nm) - zounami MU - 3/24/25 19:44:45
     what's amazing about the 69 - o'lineydisciple MU - 3/24/25 15:11:45
     Only team still alive that fits Mizzou’s profile is BYU - hou4mu MU - 3/24/25 15:08:56
          I think St. John's was more done in by their own offense - Eggs MU - 3/24/25 15:13:53
               Guess I wasn’t clear. The No. 64 offense was St. John’s - hou4mu MU - 3/24/25 15:29:40
               Their second team AA guard was so bad - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 15:15:25
     Hard to believe they were 69th this year, i assume it's - playhard KC - 3/24/25 14:59:44
          Mizzou went a month playing at a top 15 level defense - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 15:03:30
               Is any of that schedule driven? I do get part of the reason - playhard KC - 3/24/25 15:06:40
                    Despite the score, we actually did not play bad defense - alwaysright MU - 3/24/25 17:44:43
                    They did seem to get entitled - hou4mu MU - 3/24/25 15:16:55
                    I don’t think so. - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/24/25 15:12:23
