Kolek planning to go pro
He's still thinking about 51 years of futility, sometimes things get lost. I love ya Blackheart....I'm teasing
According to resident moron Ners, JJJ's problems are a result of bad coaching. I see a very overrated HS player who struggles at the high major level college level.
Wojo inherited this mess he did not create it. He gets a hall pass. He can hardly game plan with the rosters with which he is forced to compete. I don't know how that gets misconstrued.
It is. That and the fact that he has higher FG% and 3-pt%, a better A/TO ratio and is a better rebounder and defender than a certain 4-star guard who has been getting 25+ mpg consistently....Plenty of guys to criticize lately, but Derrick isn't one of them.
You really still think this team is better than that Dukiet team with Tony Smith, Pop Sims, Powell, et al? On track for the first 20 loss season since...51 years ago. Only the second 20 loss season in MU's history if the losses continue...let's hope you win this one.
Wojo has Trophies for everybody !!!! Taylor is not D1 talent so he is invited to move on. Worse than Juan. Cohen and Luke questionable. Hope we have better players to support the Ellensons. That's the facts. This team sucks ! Diener was my favorite player of all time. He must be embarrassed.
I think the schedules were not comparable, IMO.
Why is he beyond criticism? He's terrible period. Next year will be addition by subtraction.
Kinda of like when you decide not to post.
JJJ and Cohen couldn't have been much worse. I still think both will contribute in the future.
Aww you're hurting my feelings Scoop Stalker.
Taylor was offered by Iowa, DePaul, Xavier, Missouri, Northwestern, and others. He is most certainly a DI talent, but unfortunately injuries have hurt him.
That 1987 team played (in today's conferences): three B1G teams, one SEC, five ACC games, one Big 12, two A10, and four Big East games.
That 1987 team played (in today's conferences): three B1G teams, one SEC, five ACC games, one Big 12, two A10, and four Big East games. And the cupcakes were fewer and better (Horizon, MVC, MAC). Those Loyola Marmount teams under Westhead were very, very good as well. So, the SOS would be very close if you consider the cupcakes MU played this season.Yet, this team has lost more in a row in total and at home, something not seen since 1963-64, which is clearly MU's worst season in its history. Losing 20 is horrible in an era, more games or not. You cannot explain that away especially as the margins of the losses are increasing at the end here. Both teams had attrition but the 1987 team was deeper with a full roster, granted the makeup was skewed to seniors and freshmen. http://wiki.muscoop.com/doku.php/men_s_basketball/1963
So, the SOS would be very close if you consider the cupcakes MU played this season.According to both Pomeroy and Sagarin we have played the 12th most difficult schedule in the country this season....I doubt you could say the Dukiet teamed played something close to that.
But back then, many of our opponents were still mid-majors. Pointing out that they're in major conferences today is irrelevant to where they were in '87.Kinda doubt you'd find our SOS was 12 that season....
