Team is better now than at any time in his three years here. With the right pickup in the paint, they will probably have a winning record next year.
Mizzou has the short term expectations of a top 10 program, and therefore the track record of a nobody.
Personally, we probably needed to go with a big recruiter when we hired KA, but Alden thought that Fuller would offset this. KA was probably the right man for the job when Haith was hired. He would have excelled with the "head start" of a talented, experienced roster.
But regardless, once we decided to go with KA, he should have been given 5 years, no questions asked.
