as Big Eight freshman of the year in '87 and starting lots of games in '88. As you mention his fall in the '89 rotation was due in large part to an absurdly deep frontcourt, probably deepest we've had - and also a penchant for using a Coward/Irvin/Peeler monster three guard lineup at times as well. Buntin didn't have issues with foul trouble or overall development like Tilmon has.

Don't get me wrong Tilmon has the talent for a bust out senior year and there have been plenty of scenarios like that. I would expect him to have a much better season because he should. But you know better than most where I'm going with the above when I suggest that '89 Buntin probably would have been a 20 and 10 starter for this last year's Mizzou team...still would not have been a good team but he'd have been the go to guy

We desperately needed a big. Need another. - Nookam UK - 5/6 11:41:48
     Too much drama(nm) - alstl MU - 5/7 07:47:17
     You're aware this is a Mizzou board right? (nm) - Cosmo MU - 5/6 12:58:36
          Yaya Keita - namres MU - 5/6 14:17:54
     Bet he goes to Europe - Calca STL - 5/6 12:50:19
     speaking of which, Tilmon is the most athletically talented - Ace AU - 5/6 12:30:30
          Agreed. However Nathan Buntin - FIJItiger MU - 5/6 13:23:53
               Buntin should have started over Sandbothe - Genco98 MU - 5/7 08:07:57
               highly doubt he will have the type of year Buntin did - Jeff85 MU - 5/6 15:50:37
                    He won’t be the focus of the offense - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/6 16:03:17
                         since we insist on throwing it to him on the block - Jeff85 MU - 5/6 18:27:31
                              they didn’t throw it to him as much - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/6 18:33:43
               Yeah I mean Buntin had displayed scoring/overall prowess - McMuffin MU - 5/6 13:46:56
                    Buntin was probably our second best player as a freshman - FIJItiger MU - 5/6 13:51:27
                         Curious what ways was Tilmon more valuable that season? - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/6 17:28:21
          RE: speaking of which, Tilmon is the most athletically talented - Legendary50 UT - 5/6 12:49:29
               Wilmore. Are you aware of the 7.4 recruit? - Sigma MU - 5/6 13:00:42
                    Sigma I know he's 7'4 - Legendary50 UT - 5/6 13:05:27
                         Wilmore is dramatically better than Axel. That might mean - alwaysright MU - 5/6 17:19:09
                         Recruiting bodies vs players . Not good. Tilmon's - Sigma MU - 5/6 13:22:56
                              Braun had the most P5 offers of that group - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/6 13:24:16
                                   From what little he played it appeared to me Braun might - sprintcar STL - 5/6 13:33:37
                                        Boy I thought you were going to go a different direction - alwaysright MU - 5/6 17:20:29
                                        Braun has the athleticism - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/6 13:47:27
                                        I've never seen Wilmore play - FIJItiger MU - 5/6 13:36:23
                                             I don't expect Braun to be a major force but I think he can - sprintcar STL - 5/6 13:38:33
                                                  If he could improve his conditioning I think he could - FIJItiger MU - 5/6 13:52:58
                         Mitch would be first up. - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/6 13:12:13
                              I assume "run" is one of the newfangled terms that young - sprintcar STL - 5/6 13:36:26
                                   Sprintcar you're coming across as a hearse!....LOL! - Sigma MU - 5/6 13:40:02
                                        Lol. I feel like one at times.(nm) - sprintcar STL - 5/6 13:44:03
                                             Lets say Tilmon doesnt come back and the new Buggs info - Legendary50 UT - 5/6 13:47:39
                                                  If he doesn't both come back and improve considerably - FIJItiger MU - 5/6 14:13:25
                                                  Just a guess - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/6 13:51:18
                                                       That"s a below 500 SEC lineup and skids greased for - Sigma MU - 5/6 14:06:12
                                                            Probably so (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/6 14:35:21
