Think about it...

Gates won 1 game in the tournament and got blown out by a 15 seed – and Mizzou gave him a $25 million contract.

Keatts took NC State to the FINAL FOUR last year – and NC State just fired his ass.

Imagine if Keatts had taken Mizzou to a Final Four – he would have a statue and a lifetime contract. But instead, he's out of a job and the 0-19 coach is making $4M+ per year through 2029.

Mizzou's embarrassingly low expectations make it the #1 basketball job in the country. Winning in football has always been an uphill battle at MU due to the massive resources it takes, but in basketball, Mizzou is an easy place to win – yet we reward and celebrate mediocrity.

As recently as a week ago, there were clowns here saying that Gates should get ANOTHER raise & extension – less than a year after going 0-19!

Poor Keatts... should've taken the Mizzou job.

                         Pretending what u think is real doesn't faciltate discussion - Macgrantt MU - 3/9 17:48:53
     Keatts got an extension after last season (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/9 14:22:26
          all that matters is the BUYOUT (how much $ is GUARANTEED)... - zounami MU - 3/9 14:33:57
               From reading this it sounds like the final 4 run initiated - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 3/9 14:44:33
                    so NCST did NOT *elect* to give him an extension, even - zounami MU - 3/9 14:49:59
                         It wasn't a smart negotiating move on NC State's part at all - hou4mu MU - 3/9 16:47:54
                              Keatts' buyout after taking NCST to a Final Four is only $8m - zounami MU - 3/9 17:01:53
                         They “elected” to give him a contract with auto-extension (nm) - haeffb MU - 3/9 15:53:41
                              you missed the point (nm) - zounami MU - 3/9 16:42:13
                                   I did not. They didn’t NOT “elect” to give him an extension. - haeffb MU - 3/9 17:31:29
                                        you still miss the point (nm) - zounami MU - 3/9 18:00:32
                         Not in a year where he was lucky to make the NCAA Tournament - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/9 15:01:44
                              They had a Kenpom of #45 that year. By comparison... - zounami MU - 3/9 16:41:57
                                   His extension seems to have hurt you (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/9 16:44:54
                                        no, the $25M buyout is what made that contract so ridiculous - zounami MU - 3/9 17:22:22
                                             Keatts spent 8 years at NCState - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/9 19:56:27
                                                  Norm was at MU 32 seasons and never achieved what Keatts - zounami MU - 3/9 19:59:11
                                                       Keatts: 1 F4 in 8 seasons, FIRED.. Norm: 0 F4s in 32 seasons - zounami MU - 3/9 20:12:30
                                                            3 tournaments in 8 years - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/9 21:29:42
     Not sure Keatts was offered the MU job? - UMR85 MU - 3/9 14:05:53
