Unsurprisingly all 4 points are easily observablely false

Fundamentally what the low information Kim fans fail to grasp (beyond how college bb works) is that in the efforts to incorrectly slander MU to justify the overwhelming failures of Kim and cast blame elsewhere, they do so at the expense of good MU teams and good MU student athletes who represented MU well. There were a lot of extremely good players who played for Haith who all hold MU degrees and were not involved in any of the fake impropriety that your ilk vaguely try to smear that era with. The actual reality is that MU was a very good national caliber program during that era that was fundamentally limited by how clean they were forced to be by our AD and lost an entire crucial freshman class because of it, which is what set the staff on a path of using transfers. In reality there has probably never been a cleaner and by the books 3 year period in MU history dating back to at least the 60s than the 3 years Haith coached here, certainly more so than the 3 years that followed when Kim took over and everything became a total **** show.
There is an obvious change in program direction when we hired Kim, and yes that was a long time ago but the obvious effects are still visible today and MU bb will never recover back to a normal state from the impact of his tenure. It’s not fair to put that on Cuonzo or Gates. They inherited a ruined program. It’s too late, it can’t be fixed. There are some mistakes that simply can’t be overcome. But it is infuriating to those of us who cared about MU bb that watched it get ruined in such a stupid experiment to listen to the inane excuse making and scapegoating. It’s not a difficult to determine riddle what is the root cause of what befell MU bb and it would have only been a surprising outcome if miraculously Kim 3 year tenure has turned out less detrimental.
