He had lots of hoops related questions.

http://sports.live.stltoday.com/Event/Mizzou_chat_with_Dave_Matter_64f42dc13e33/mobile?Page=1&ThemeId=4123

He spent a day with them earlier this week.
Summary of his comments
Team should be better this year. Potential to approach mid teens in wins
Starting 5 that he saw TP, CVL, KJ, KP, RW
Geist, Jackson, Kemp role as energy
Kemp & Smith have higher ceilings than Woods, but are physically immature at this point.
Hughes has a hand/wrist injury, playing with a cast.

     it would be hard for them to be worse - Doc Stone MU - 7/21 17:45:56
     So is Jackson just going to be Allen reincarnated? - StaleyTiger MU - 7/21 16:23:51
          That would be a worst case scenario - MUIntensity USA - 7/21 16:28:07
               I always thought he was one of the few players who cared - StaleyTiger MU - 7/21 16:34:28
                    the biggest difference is that in 2 years of college - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 16:41:40
     Sorry to single a player out - cal MU - 7/21 16:04:14
          He is a D1 player. Just not a high-major D1 player.(nm) - tgr MU - 7/21 16:05:57
               yes, he's great against the mid-majors. Useless against P5 - MUIntensity USA - 7/21 16:07:34
     That isn't good news - FIJItiger MU - 7/21 14:56:47
          Van Leer is starting? - MakeShift MU - 7/21 16:35:02
               Matter didn't actually think he would start - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 16:39:31
          That's good news re Jackson - MUIntensity USA - 7/21 16:03:45
               I like Justin Gage, and to some degree I agree this team - FIJItiger MU - 7/21 16:08:30
                    And Jackson is much much better than Gage - Mr. Orange SU - 7/21 16:21:00
          I'm not expecting anything they are freshmen. I also - SabertoothTiger MU - 7/21 15:43:47
               Basically our entire team is either freshman or sophomores - FIJItiger MU - 7/21 15:51:36
                    so that expected. We've known this for months. We've - SabertoothTiger MU - 7/21 15:55:16
                         My expectations, assuming we are good - FIJItiger MU - 7/21 15:59:18
                              Dixon was a great 6th man - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 16:05:42
                              ha ha ha. You are just setting yourself up for failure - SabertoothTiger MU - 7/21 16:02:03
                                   RE: ha ha ha. You are just setting yourself up for failure - FIJItiger MU - 7/21 16:04:39
          Who is expecting freshmen to come in and - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:13:59
               This team won't be successful without at least one - tgr MU - 7/21 15:21:21
                    What's your definition of significant? - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:26:42
                         6 or 7 a game is what I consider significant for a freshman. - tgr MU - 7/21 15:32:28
                              The defense was worse than the offense last year - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:37:09
                                   Freshmen usually aren't very good defensively so to expect - tgr MU - 7/21 15:46:03
                                        experience usually helps with defense - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:54:15
                                             That still leaves probably half of the minutes to be played - tgr MU - 7/21 15:58:50
                                                  Mediocre would be an improvement from last year - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 16:11:29
                                                  It will be impossible, we have no frontcourt and we have - FIJItiger MU - 7/21 16:01:47
                                        this is true especially freshman bigs. They'll be hacking - SabertoothTiger MU - 7/21 15:52:12
                                             I doubt that's a concern - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:56:08
                                                  I don't think it is either. Its the way it is for freshman - SabertoothTiger MU - 7/21 15:59:04
               Being Pitino was even interested proves the kid can play. I - Uncle John MU - 7/21 15:20:35
                    And the fact that Rick let him out of his LOI without a - StaleyTiger MU - 7/21 15:22:30
                         That's fine, we are no where close to Louisville so he will - Uncle John MU - 7/21 15:24:25
                              I'd bet money that he won't contribute anywhere near what - StaleyTiger MU - 7/21 15:25:47
                                   Wright was a worthless piece of crap.(nm) - Uncle John MU - 7/21 15:30:49
                                   Hughes has better fundamentals on his shot than - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:29:16
                                        They said Wright had a pure shot when he came in too. - StaleyTiger MU - 7/21 15:32:29
                                             Who said he would, hopefully he's not a thug.(nm) - Uncle John MU - 7/21 15:36:08
                                             Wright was never known on the recruiting - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:35:04
          RE: Good stuff from matter - Bangin3s MU - 7/21 15:06:52
               Hopefully they don't get frustrated/discouraged when faced - FIJItiger MU - 7/21 15:15:21
                    RE: Hopefully they don't get frustrated/discouraged when faced - Tigerfem MU - 7/21 21:12:16
               The problem is that we are once again going to be relying - tgr MU - 7/21 15:10:19
                    No, its how you slowly build back a program - MUIntensity USA - 7/21 15:59:45
                         This whole made up narrative about how the players we have - StaleyTiger MU - 7/21 16:10:32
                              No, i'm basing it on what I've seen from TP, KP, KJ and CVL - MUIntensity USA - 7/21 16:17:21
                                   What have you witnessed that tells you about their attitude? - StaleyTiger MU - 7/21 16:27:18
                                        Matter pointed out the vibe and leadership - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 16:43:23
          Even if he was/is our best player, I predicted early that - Evenflow MU - 7/21 15:00:12
               45 points a game is still a possibility with this group I am - catbirdseat MU - 7/21 15:03:44
                    They will average 70+ a game - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:16:54
                         The returning players shot 41% from the field last year. - tgr MU - 7/21 15:43:43
                              Gant and Rosburg are big losses - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/21 15:50:37
                                   RE: Gant and Rosburg are big losses - Tgrweir MU - 7/22 07:05:32
                         So where do you get 70? - catbirdseat MU - 7/21 15:40:49
