3 of the 4 years before coming to Mizzou he had top 20 defenses. This isn’t even top 100. It is more in line with how the defense was playing the last half of last season.

Lol. X had a very good game vs Illinois. Anton looked - Sigma MU - 12/16 10:43:21

he has also been a horrible defender so far - NWMizzouFan NWMSU - 12/16 10:31:13

I think you are looking at Brookshire through rose colored - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 10:28:19

He will always be the closest thing this roster has to a pg - FIJItiger MU

- 12/16 10:17:39

Kaleb is a better pt but needs work on conditioning. - Sigma MU - 12/16 10:44:50

Fvcking hilarious. - alwaysright MU - 12/16 12:37:30

I agree and he is bigger and stronger(nm) - oldtgr MU - 12/16 10:49:39

I guess, need to see more of him - FIJItiger MU

- 12/16 10:46:33

In CM half court game he can play, buy will be exposed - Sigma MU - 12/16 11:22:37

Very true. When you are the only PG on the roster you are - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 10:29:08

I think it is too soon to be patting yourself on the back - OGT MU - 12/16 09:08:32

We are a third of the way through the season, the easy third - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 09:12:20

Coleman/Davis/Gordon - FIJItiger MU

- 12/16 09:44:28

How about Gordon ,Drurogordon together for back door cuts?(nm) - oldtgr MU - 12/16 10:03:36

Ideally we would take the ball out of Coleman's hands and - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 09:52:49

We saw it vs ku's scrubs with Brazile feeding Drurogordon(nm) - oldtgr MU - 12/16 10:05:15

Those were not ku's scrubs, those were ku's walkons. - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 10:38:07

Excuse me.Walk ons then it is(nm) - oldtgr MU - 12/16 10:46:28

Agree, if we had a pg and a structured offense this would - FIJItiger MU

- 12/16 09:57:31

Gordon would contribute a lot more if he could handle ball(nm) - oldtgr MU - 12/16 10:08:04

He is a finisher not an initiator. CM doesn't know this? - Sigma MU - 12/16 10:20:38

Agree but if he had a better handle could penetrate better(nm) - oldtgr MU - 12/16 10:48:03

line ups and rotations are still in flux - OGT MU - 12/16 09:16:04

There is a lot of very bad basketball to be played. To this - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 09:21:26

And you assume that I don't know a sport that I coached for - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 14:57:30

It’s not the narrative, it’s the volume and complete - Jeff85 MU - 12/16 15:48:11

So your irritated because what I have been saying since last - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 16:06:56

Because I know that he has a background in basketball - Jeff85 MU - 12/16 16:23:01

You didn't answer the question. Instead you attacked - Sigma MU - 12/16 10:36:58

I have coached at the high school level for over a decade. - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 09:46:42

Has Missouri recruited your school players? - OGT MU - 12/16 10:00:45

How is that in any way relevant? You asked if I coached, - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 10:09:44

just wondering how successful a high school coach you are - OGT MU - 12/16 10:21:37

We’re going streaking !! - alwaysright MU - 12/16 09:11:33

when I said that we would win 10 games - NWMizzouFan NWMSU - 12/16 08:43:09

So... you were wrong?(nm) - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 09:03:17

The more important aspect is that a .500 team - FIJItiger MU

I don't believe our defense is horrendous this season. - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 08:31:04

This isn’t the type of defense we were sold on - wu-tangtiger MU - 12/16 08:44:49

It will get eaten alive by better coached and more talented - Eggs MU - 12/16 08:35:56

I think it illustrates how it isn't easy to - OGT MU - 12/16 10:23:48

I cannot argue that.(nm) - DHighlander NWMSU - 12/16 08:41:56
