Quote from: hawk on January 14, 2026, 09:16:54 PMMU has a Good class coming in next year and I expect that Smart will pick up a senior or graduate center to solidify the post.  Smart has used the portal before.  I think his issue is with agents not the portal per se.  I'm not a big Shaka fan in so far as I don't like the offense he favors but there really can't be any doubt that he can coach.  There are no graounds to think that the MU program is in a slide into a basketball abyss.  Relax and try to enjoy the becoming of the next good run for MU.

What is the offense he favors?

Might have to once were done boxing.

Thank you Stanford.

In back-to-back games, Texas went from upsetting #13 Alabama on the road to just now beating #10 Vanderbilt by double-digits (highest lead was 20), handing them their first loss of the season. Looks like things are going well for Sean Miller.

I have 2 seats a few rows behind MU bench for sale.

We go to @DeP every year. Was excited for Friday night game in Chicago. We went to Oklahoma game. I'll continue to go the games at Fiserv....but no longer crossing state lines to watch this team.

I understand how angry MU fans are right now.  Include me in that contingent.  As I've stated many times we need an immediate hard pivot and a slew of bona fide ballers that can change this disaster immediately.

All that said, I believe the rest of the year is important, and getting wins/experience is important. And I'm not gonna stop supporting or watching our guys because we're a terrible team.  I have little confidence we'll get to even 4-16 in the mediocre BEast, but we will see whether or not we have players grow and could be pieces in the future.

Anyways, if you think coaches from other programs are just going to forget Nigel James is on this planet if Shaka "hides" him by sitting him the rest of the year, and that James would be on board with just not playing for half the season so he won't be offered portal money, your golf buddies are even dumber than they seemed before today.

People are also asking the question if the Bucks should send Giannis to live with his family in Greece for the next year and a half. Then nobody would be interested in trading for him or signing him as a free agent and he could come back and sign the max extension with the Bucks, assuming they don't also forget who he is.

It's not completely different but whatever helps you feel like the most important person in your own head
