efforts. That block late by Tilmon?? That's talent. Game on the line. Geist with ball pressure to force the shot clock violation? Give the guys some credit... along with coach. As Kash said, "help, and help the helper." But it takes talent to do that.

     Yes, he's rebuilt the program in 1 year.(nm) - Mizzmi27 MU - 2/14 11:19:20
     And yet you still give him strike 1. (nm) - Bucky Larson MU - 2/14 10:50:07
     I see him more as a 5th level cleric. - GoldenTiger MU - 2/14 10:34:01
     Lost 4 of the top 6 players? - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 09:54:58
          Productivity does not matter to Fiji. And not - alwaysright MU - 2/14 11:04:19
          It's got a top 10 team - kmawv8 MU - 2/14 10:03:06
          He is totally clueless. (nm) - go tigers MU - 2/14 10:02:00
               And proves it on a daily basis (nm) - hou4mu MU - 2/14 10:53:57
          Fiji has an irrational hatred of Kim - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 2/14 09:59:59
          Top 6 players last year for MU - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 09:56:14
               Russell Woods was better than Puryear - hou4mu MU - 2/14 10:51:47
                    FYI, they are both on that 6 player list (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 10:56:02
               Well, assuming you can just make an ignorant list, yes(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 09:58:49
                    People who subjected themselves to watching MU play last - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 10:01:31
                         I went to every home game last year and watched the rest - go tigers MU - 2/14 10:04:15
                              While I believe you watch all of our games - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 10:05:48
                         My subjective opinion is you didn't watch closely(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:03:25
               Geist did far more than Hughes ever did. But you - TheWildcat STL - 2/14 09:58:01
                    I was talking about ability, not production - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 09:59:58
                         I think Kemp, Rau, Glassman, Wolf had the most ability - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:01:18
                              They did not. Leads me to question the validity of your - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 10:02:24
                                   You weren't watching closely enough. My subjective opinion - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:02:55
                                        You are entitled to that incorrect opinion - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 10:04:26
                                             My subjective opinion says you are objectively wrong(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:05:38

               There will always be a course correction - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 09:59:57
     Toughest conferenec? - Hoosier Daddy1 IU - 2/14 09:40:32
          It could be debated. Just not effectively (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 09:41:37
               Where are your facts to prove it? - Hoosier Daddy1 IU - 2/14 09:42:47
                    Take conference games out of the two schedules and look - kmawv8 MU - 2/14 09:47:31
                         What was the final count in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge?(nm) - TheWildcat STL - 2/14 09:48:17
                              SEC - 6 Big 12 -4 - Hoosier Daddy1 IU - 2/14 09:51:13
                                   How did the SEC decide which programs wouldn't participate?(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 09:57:55
                                        You keep bringing this up. While that may be an advantage - kmawv8 MU - 2/14 10:01:39
                                             I brought it up once since B12-SEC challenge day. - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:05:05
                                                  according to your post below, that would be the 11th time - kmawv8 MU - 2/14 10:08:09
                                                       I discussed on day of challenge and then again today. - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:09:56
                                                            I'm not twisting facts. - kmawv8 MU - 2/14 10:14:42
                                                                 "advantage was non-existent" - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:19:43
                                                                      Yes, it is very unlikely that it happens, but it DID happen - kmawv8 MU - 2/14 10:22:04
                                                                      3 of the 4 b12 wins came against our 11, 12, 13 teams. - bornoncampus MU - 2/14 10:21:50
                                                                           Home teams? - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:28:16
                                                                                TJ, your point is that the SEC gets to choose who plays. ok. - bornoncampus MU - 2/14 10:54:05
                                                                                     I understand the meta here. - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 11:22:24
                                                                      In theory, our 10th best team should be as bad/good - TheWildcat STL - 2/14 10:21:33
                                                                           Not if you take out the 4 programs with the worst - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 10:24:32
                                                                                Here it is in cold truth. Played 59 - 67. Didn't play 29-21. - bornoncampus MU - 2/14 10:34:52
                                                                                     Thanks(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 11:25:46
                                                                                okay, but this year 75% of the b12 wins came against our - bornoncampus MU - 2/14 10:27:06
                                                                                We are in 3rd place in the conference and didn't even - TheWildcat STL - 2/14 10:25:45

                                                                                          Doesn't really matter. We aren't talking historically. - TheWildcat STL - 2/14 10:31:43
                                                                                               Yeah, I'm still not convinced SEC is better. - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 11:32:12
                                                                                          we're talking about one year, not the norm. - kmawv8 MU - 2/14 10:31:21
                                                                 I really do think the SEC is stronger than the Big 12 this - TheWildcat STL - 2/14 10:15:44
                                                                      I agree (nm) - kmawv8 MU - 2/14 10:19:50
                                        Based on records the previous year - Hoosier Daddy1 IU - 2/14 09:58:40

                                                  Yes (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 2/14 09:57:59

                                                                 I repeat they are not a strong program - Hoosier Daddy1 IU - 2/14 10:06:32
                                                  And Rick Barnes and Bruce Pearl are strong coaches. - tjwheeler UI - 2/14 09:57:16
