really killed his confidence and put him into a tough place mentally.

I believe Pierce and Butler should have played more, but there is a limit to how much more is a good thing.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

This makes me think Pierce is gone Too bad, he had talent. - Macgrantt MU - 4/3 14:37:07

We have to understand that players are going to - Tiger_1995 MU - 4/3 20:55:29

That's good news especially if it means Gates is changing - alstl MU - 4/3 17:29:43

Did you watch any Cleveland State games - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 17:45:33

I"m a huge Cleveland State fan - I have the record for most - alstl MU - 4/3 17:50:35

You would see how they used their bigs - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 17:52:28

The question then becomes whether he will change(nm) - alstl MU - 4/3 21:40:41

The change has to be - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 21:42:34

Like others are saying Pierce isn't a post. - longtimereader MU - 4/3 16:07:56

Let’s keep piling on…..Pierce isn’t a post. - alwaysright MU - 4/3 14:57:05

Pierce isn't a post player(nm) - MizzouAstro MU

Gates decided to ride with Jesus and Carter - NWMOTiger MU - 4/3 14:44:11

Jesus was 9th on the team in minutes (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 14:48:44

And Pierce was 15th with half the MPG - NWMOTiger MU - 4/3 14:58:56

His minutes were normal for a freshman - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 15:16:33

So you supported playing Jesus double his minutes? - NWMOTiger MU - 4/3 15:20:46

If Pierce would've played more conference minutes - longtimereader MU - 4/3 15:56:55

I know a lot here want to see freshmen play a lot - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 15:27:49

Boateng better be able to play 15, everybody else - alwaysright MU - 4/3 15:47:22

Honestly looking at who is maybe coming back and who Mizzou - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 15:50:44

sure, roster will matter in what he actually gets, but I'm - alwaysright MU - 4/3 15:53:36

Yeah the team was well served playing Jesus - NWMOTiger MU - 4/3 15:33:59

Freshmen develop despite not playing major minutes - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 15:41:49

Lol.. You can't be serious. (nm) - Sigma MU - 4/3 17:47:08

It prevented them from playing more game minutes - NWMOTiger MU - 4/3 15:43:13

Game minutes aren’t the only way to develop - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 15:49:25

Game minutes & performance is how you measure development.(nm) - Sigma MU - 4/3 17:48:16

For you as a fan maybe. - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 17:55:07

You expose your lack of knowledge. Coaches want - Sigma MU - 4/3 18:36:18

Development takes time. - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 18:44:15

Development is situational and averages are irrelevant. Some - Sigma MU - 4/3 19:19:00

Shocking that 5 star freshmen usually play - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 19:21:49

Iowa St had a 5 star that saw 7 minutes a game. You are - Sigma MU - 4/3 19:25:01

That happens occasionally - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 19:28:58

That's totally not true - longtimereader MU - 4/3 19:01:04

I have posted information about freshmen in P5 - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 19:06:56

He exposes his propensity to promote the company line - longtimereader MU - 4/3 18:40:48

Hey at one time the " Company Man" was admired. That was - Sigma MU - 4/3 19:27:01

This isn’t even defending the coaches - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 18:57:30

Were the guys who played ahead of them as bad - NWMOTiger MU - 4/3 15:53:38

Most freshmen need an offseason in the weight room - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 15:57:54

Game minutes aren’t as important as practice minutes - haeffb MU - 4/3 15:56:04

An additional 15 mpg might have been a number that - alwaysright MU - 4/3 15:27:30

While I can agree with that I thought both - longtimereader MU - 4/3 16:04:19

I thought Butler played too much - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 16:55:57

Based on what you described his time was right - longtimereader MU - 4/3 17:27:53

Butler just physically wasn’t ready - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 17:37:41

Butler was exactly as ready as I thought he would be - longtimereader MU - 4/3 18:35:34

I wrote Pierce was stunted by just staying on 3 pt line in - Sigma MU - 4/3 19:22:21

He wasn’t stunted. He played and produced exactly - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 19:26:08

He did not improve from just hanging on perimeter at prep - Sigma MU - 4/3 19:30:50

He will get stronger. Then once stronger will be able - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 19:33:25

I agree he was as ready as I thought he would be. - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 19:00:02

Actually that is the criticism - longtimereader MU - 4/3 19:03:58

In the future when players are on multi year - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 19:32:07

Or it might have been a number to really help his developmen - NWMOTiger MU - 4/3 15:35:11

that puts him at a lot of mpg for a frosh - alwaysright MU - 4/3 15:44:24

it's the tribune. they def could've just f'd up(nm) - TigerA MU - 4/3 14:43:15

Pierce is more of a jumbo wing - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/3 14:43:10
