wasn't going to get better, and with alternative options MU made a good decision for its long term future. I think alot of ku fans would characterize that as not being able to handle adversity, and they sound nearly as intelligent as those who characterize our outgoing transfers as doing so out of an inability to handle adversity.

When most of these guys committed MU was a national level program with considerable success and a track record of putting players into the professional ranks including the NBA. We are basically a D2 program now, that while we get to play in the SEC get our brains beat in while doing so and have completely de-emphasized the sport and have overwhelming fan apathy.
