2017-18 College Basketball (Mizzou) thread

[Farewell Friends]

Frank Martin plays murderball, but the silver lining is that they're less about pressing and forcing turnovers than they are about hitting you over the head with a folding chair every time you step inside the 3 point line.

LOL. It's been so long since I watched a team coached by Frank Martin I couldn't remember if it was Murderball or Bullyball.

I wasn't able to watch, but it sounds like they went off from 3. I wish they had a Plan B, but when your 5-star 6-10 forward is out for the season it's hard and I don't think they have the guys to get good looks for Tilmon. Too bad Porter didn't bring Trae Young with him.

Good game last night. I wish they'd find more balance and utilize their size better, but hard to argue when the shots are falling.

Blake Harris is transferring. What is happening?

[cardsfantx]

i'm cool with it, as long as we get courtney ramsey

It seems impossible to win without an experienced point guard so Harris' departure sets them back for 2019 and 2020, which is the most disappointing part. Then again, who knows if Harris sticks around after MPJ leaves anyway. All Geist and Phillips need to do is not screw up. Mizzou gets enough spacing without leaning on a star point guard.

Feels like a big game for Mizzou today. Line at a pick’em.

Meanwhile the Hogs are on the road in auburn. Was hoping for a split this week with two road games, but after auburn won in Knoxville, I’m not expecting it

[Farewell Friends]

I would be surprised if Mizzou wins.

Exceptional defense in the first four minutes.

Geist is playing some great defense.

Frustrating to be down one after playing so well
