That would make sense, given to most of the country MU basketball is no longer relevant for consideration. What fun is being a fan if there is a 100% certainty of failure and irrelevance.

SEC preview - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 07:05:13
     The big outrage...no. 3 in bb recruiting is ALABAMA. I - GA Tiger MU - 8/17 09:21:30
          They hired a good coach and made being competitive - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:25:50
               Have you seen their budget? - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 09:34:19
                    how much did they invest? link? (nm) - phrejd MU - 8/17 09:40:12
                         Start with total overall spending - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 10:01:39
                              that doesn't clarify anything. what are they spending on - phrejd MU - 8/17 10:07:55
                                   You have a category they spend more on it - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 10:11:33
                                        yeah. severance. - phrejd MU - 8/17 10:14:59
                                             They did that also - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 10:20:33
                                                  right. so we should pay the buyout asap if - phrejd MU - 8/17 10:30:28
                                                       No Mizzou isn’t. Both are still spending - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 10:33:39
                                                            i guess that's the disconnect. both paid big buyouts and - phrejd MU - 8/17 11:28:56
                                                                 It’s millions between them and Mizzou - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 11:32:19
                                                                      no it isn't. do you even read your own posts? (nm) - phrejd MU - 8/17 11:56:41
                                                                           Yes it is. Even if you exclude the buyout numbers - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 12:04:13
                                                                                See, that is a crazy and illogical assumption - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 12:40:47
                                                                                     So you think the AD is incompetent? - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 12:56:34
                                                                                          Do you think the AD can name his program's record and conf - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 13:20:17
                                                                                               That’s exactly how it works - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 13:39:47
                                                                                                    No, that is patently and completely false (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 14:02:34
                                                                                                    no they don't - phrejd MU - 8/17 13:44:36
                                                                                                         Not sure you understand what that is saying - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 13:50:09
                                                                                                              "Recruiting rankings and recruiting budgets go hand in hand" - phrejd MU - 8/17 13:52:10
                                                                                                                   That article said they did - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 14:00:09
                                                                                                                        no. try again (nm) - phrejd MU - 8/17 14:26:07
                                                                                          ^^ there's the illogical leap to a new topic (nm) - phrejd MU - 8/17 12:59:30
                                                                                               That was Fij thinking more spending - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 13:06:27
                                                                                     it's what he does. somehow alabama paying a $5.5M buyout - phrejd MU - 8/17 12:54:14
                                                                                why don't you list all SEC schools basketball expenses - phrejd MU - 8/17 12:13:36
                                                                                     I have posted links to that a few times already - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 12:19:44
                                                                                          link? (nm) - phrejd MU - 8/17 12:24:42
                                                                                               Yea I have posted the link multiple - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 12:32:00
                                                                                                    cool. can you point me to that link? - phrejd MU - 8/17 12:48:21
                                                                                                         Here it is again. There’s been some other links as well - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 13:05:18
                                                                                                              those numbers don't match up. you posted earlier in this - phrejd MU - 8/17 13:43:57
                                                                                                                   Different years (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 13:50:30
                                                                                                                        so $1M increase in budget was the difference between - phrejd MU - 8/17 14:31:20
                                                                                                                             Are you spending it on the right things? - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 14:50:58
                    No, I don't care about budgets. That isn't part of the fan - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:36:17
                         Look it up. If Mizzou was willing - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 09:38:47
                              Pass. That isn't interesting or relevant to me (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:39:36
                                   So you want Mizzou to prioritize being competitive but don't - tgr MU - 8/17 09:42:35
                                        I'm not an AD fan. I know that isn't a major driver in - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:45:47
                                        he said he didn't care about budgets, not that he doesn't - phrejd MU - 8/17 09:45:36
     MU hasn't been relative since they joined the SEC. nm - BandG MU - 8/17 08:34:50
          We were the first season, 2012-13.And there were a few weeks - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 08:41:09
     We make men out of boys - Diamond Dave MU - 8/17 08:26:58
          Do we though? - phrejd MU - 8/17 08:29:13
               It was sarcastic. There's really nothing overly positive - Diamond Dave MU - 8/17 08:45:28
                    Wow already calling for the AD to be fired - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 09:03:21
                         Fine with both. However if she extends CM and the - Diamond Dave MU - 8/17 11:16:39
                              The only coach that really matters for the AD is football - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 12:06:23
               and Pinson quit on his team the last 5 games of the - NWMizzouFan NWMSU - 8/17 08:31:34
     And year 5 of Cuonzo is underway… - Lerxst MU - 8/17 07:31:51
          Yeah, seeing something like that really shows how his - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/17 07:59:39
               Here is my angle at potential optimism - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 08:12:40
                    Not sure about the PG and center part, but - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/17 09:00:46
                         Agree, its completely improbable but at least plausible - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:14:12
                    PG and center struggled last season? - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 08:23:38
                         oh I forgot: JT was "one of best bigs in country" - LamarFrazier MU - 8/17 09:30:03
                         Yes, but its all relative. Like I said I don't think those - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 08:29:03
                              The real weaknesses of his teams have been the - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 08:43:34
                                   But that is neither valid or a reason for optimism - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 08:46:59
                                        If you want optimism it has to be around those positions - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 09:00:40
                                             The specific players don't really matter to me - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:10:07
                                                  Only Mizzou fans do that (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 09:13:09
                                                       Do what, hold out hope for optimism? - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:15:55

                                                                 Disagree, many fanbases do that - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:23:52
                                                                      He hasn’t spent the last 20 years coaching either - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 09:28:58
                                                                           Kim absolutely failed because he was a bad coach (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 8/17 09:35:06
                                             I tend to agree, but I think it has everything to do with - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/17 09:03:32
                                                  I think it’s both positions - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/17 09:08:33
                                                       Fair point. Last year, when we were productive at - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/17 09:29:48
