I've played a lot of guys that don't look like they can play at all and then just rain 3s and finish everything at the rim lol

the state of Missouri is a miserable, meth-ridden nightmare. There is a reason why "Ozark" was set where it was. I will make my stand on this hill.

It's like this in most states though in certain rural areas. Ever driven through Central Florida? I'm talking like the Lake Ochobee area?

Missouri isn't unique in its poverty level and poor rural areas.

Nick Honor is their PG. Short and stocky guy

That guy is back for a 6th year. You're right. As funny looking as he is, he did fine in his role.

Grill, Bates, and Tonje is a nice transfer haul but they don't return much. They were sort of similar to KState in that their top 2 players were extremely critical to their success. Noah Carter should have a bigger role. Will be curious to see how Mizzou does. They should be ok I think.

Southern Alabama gets a bit interesting in the rural area gas stations even. Went into one on the way to FL for spring break a long time ago and there was fake hair/wigs on the wall (maybe horse hair?) and the bathrooms were disgusting.

That's more offensive than anything I've read/seen in the Cave!

No one has said he got it sorted out.

This might not be very good for him, but if he wants to keep playing basketball, he can't afford to step away.

Actually he could step away.

I'm sure the NCAA would grant him an additional year if he was stepping away due to mental illness. They're pretty generous these days in granting additional medical redshirts, etc.

I just didn't expect him to be in the portal so soon and plastering his image in a WV uniform on the web only a few weeks removed from what seemed like a really serious crisis for him. But again, good luck to him.

Been to Columbia once for this past year’s game and there was a drive by shooting near the college bars we were at.

Not surprised. What's the story on this player who transferred. I understand he was in trouble?
 
ISUChippewa said:
I wish him nothing but the best from this point forward, and I hope he conquers his demons.

That being written, living in a sh!thole, a$$ backwards, white trash filled state like Missouri would be very harmful for my own personal mental health, but to each their own...

Missouri has those parts for sure but Columbia is not one of them. I’ve stayed there for a couple weekends and with their campus off of downtown it’s a bigger, nicer and more scenic version of Iowa City.

It’s all about perspective. And bias of course.
 
Taking defense out of the equation. Only because we don't know how the new guys will do in our system until they hit the floor.

How much do you think we improved offensively in the backcourt? Seems like the replacements correlate as follows.

Paveletzke for Grill
Gilbert for Kalscheur
Jones for Holmes

As far as the other three positions and depth I think we upgraded across the board.

Lipsey So. & Williams v. Lipsey Fr. Holmes

Biliew & Momcilovic v. Kunc & King

King, Jones Gr. Ward Gr. V. Ossuniyi, Jones Sr. Ward Sr.

Watson So. Fish, Hamilton v. Watson Fr. Eli
