When Romar was fired at UW, I think MPJ Sr ends up at MU - Doc James USA - 3/24 13:10:57

Nope. The opposite is true. They left CoMo because of KA and - JoplinTiger07 MU - 3/24 14:57:37

**** Kim Anderson. Why do you still try to defend him? - BigSlickTiger MU - 3/24 13:56:35

Playing for Kim was never a legitimate option for Porter Jr. - cefoo MU - 3/24 13:42:42

sr had a job for his SIL. Why did he bolt? For highest - Doc James USA - 3/24 13:49:41

I would venture to say, it may have gone down this way - MU-TULSA MU - 3/24 13:58:02

To improve his career and jump into men's coaching. - cefoo MU - 3/24 13:52:24

His resume doesn't scream success. He can't recruit. They - Doc James USA - 3/24 13:58:38

I've met him and he's very personable and a good guy. - cefoo MU - 3/24 14:05:49

so why was Romar fired? Was Sr worth a 300K salary - Doc James USA - 3/24 14:08:17

$300k for the #1 player is a great deal. - cefoo MU - 3/24 14:26:23

So he wasn't hired because of his coaching or recruiting - Doc James USA - 3/24 14:31:55

How many players has Romar put in the NBA versus Kim? - StaleyTiger MU - 3/24 13:51:24

A top 5 pick was on UW this year (nm) - TheWildcat STL - 3/24 13:34:24
