He also rebuilt our program from (outside of a 2 year period in the 1960's) by FAR its lowest point to a program that we can't really envision not making the NCAA tourney every year at this point. He restored respectability when the program was a punchline and on probation. The kids he brought in were almost across the board ideal representatives for the program, and they all graduated.

I'm not saying everyone has to be a big Mike Anderson fan. But its rather silly to pretend like he didn't have a big impact on the season we just had.

That's not mine, but I thank thanks and credit - MIZtigerZOU MU - 4/20 16:37:33

He left you 6 seniors and a top 15 team. - tjwheeler UI - 4/20 16:16:22

The key question is how long you have to give thanks - MIZtigerZOU MU - 4/20 16:12:48

Until his players leave, imo. - tjwheeler UI - 4/20 16:17:08

So you have no problem giving weber 3 more yrs of credit - MIZtigerZOU MU - 4/20 16:30:16
