18 wins to me would be an astounding success. Depending on when they come that might make us a bubble team.
Maybe its because I'm removed from MO where my only intake of all things Mizzou is boards like this and watching the games. But, from a distant perspective I just want to see these guys compete. I want to see dudes get ****ed when they get dunked on. Get in someones face, make a statement. Do SOMETHING. I'm tired of seeing guys play like a bunch of pussies on the defensive end. I'm not saying play dirty, but play tough. Play with some passion.
Too me, that's why KA was hired. Was to instill some toughness. That it hasn't happened is the biggest indictment of his coaching in my eyes. I saw glimpses of toughness from the FR last year. I believe teams take on their coaches personality. But, I DON'T think that is who KA is or how he played.
Thankfully all of the Soph's didn't become JR's with us because they were all garbage.
