It makes me think that some of our fans haven't competed in sports in their own life. They are sitting there trying to crunch the numbers and do mental gymnastics about why we shouldn't play Mo State/SLU. I think it comes down to being scared to lose, which is exactly the type of mentality that holds a program back from being successful. Right now Dana Ford can make the case to recruits like Isaac Haney that Mizzou isn't better than Mo State. If we were playing them annually and beating them, he'd have no argument. This is college sports, let's have some damn fun and play the local schools.

                              Ask the AD. I wouldn't offer any of those schools a - zounami MU - 7/11 12:12:06
                                   That’s sounds like being scared - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/11 12:14:43
                                        Nope. I'd like a home-and-home with Duke and UNC every year - zounami MU - 7/11 12:18:26
                                             Mizzou would routinely get killed playing those schools - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/11 12:23:52
                                                  LOL, talk about being "scared". And by the way, what planet - zounami MU - 7/11 12:40:55

          Some of our fans are scared - Lavon MU - 7/10 14:14:53
               "Duke won't schedule us. They must be SCARED." - zounami MU - 7/11 10:23:25

               Probably - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 15:12:21
                    Typical. Talk the talk but afraid to walk the walk. It's - sprintcar STL - 7/10 15:31:10
                         That is silly, but whatever (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 15:39:59
               Agreed HOWEVER - tiger4real MU - 7/10 14:38:17
                    Cuonzo basically had the game scheduled in Springfield - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 14:41:33
                         I did not know that. Weakness all around there.(nm) - tiger4real MU - 7/10 14:51:50
               what a great post ^^^(nm) - tmcats KSU - 7/10 14:31:19
               There’s not really a case to be made that Mizzou isn’t - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 14:19:30
                    I agree 100% - Lavon MU - 7/10 15:29:29
                         Haney and Brookshire were on the same AAU team - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 15:31:09
                              RE: Haney and Brookshire were on the same AAU team - Lavon MU - 7/10 15:32:39
                                   The SWMO guys here have said it’s true - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 16:16:40
                                        RE: The SWMO guys here have said it’s true - Lavon MU - 7/10 16:59:35
          We don't want to prove we're better than them - Jeff85 MU - 7/10 12:34:08
          I never cease to be amazed that people want to destroy our - Cole Thornton MU - 7/10 12:02:35
               you and MU come off as scared pussies - Jeff85 MU - 7/10 12:36:57
                    We lost at home to Charleston Southern last year - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 13:00:18
                         scared pussy seems to describe you perfectly - Jeff85 MU - 7/11 11:05:12
                         SLU and Missouri State wouldn’t replace those games - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 13:04:48
                              Sounds great, as long as similarly they agree to - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 13:07:12
                                   Why be afraid of a return game? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 13:11:20
                                        Mischaracterizing it based on fear is misleading - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 13:16:33
                                             Why? Michigan State does. - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 13:21:14
                                                  Well they shouldn't. Those are just examples of - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 13:23:57
                                                       Why is that an example of bad scheduling? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 13:32:07
                                                            Those schools are playing noncon road games in - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 13:54:23
                                                                 Why is that bad? - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 14:01:24
                                                                      Noncon is for preparing for conference play - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 14:03:55
                                                                           That’s why you have games like - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 14:08:26
                                                                                Those aren't road games, those are neutral site games - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 14:11:02
                                                                                     Only 2 of the 6 kU games are neutral site - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 14:17:22
                                                                                          well I am opposed to it, for the reasons given (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 15:07:05
                    I endorse this (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 12:40:49
               So Mizzou can’t play these in state teams but several - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 12:08:39
                    exactly - Jeff85 MU - 7/10 12:40:58
          We don't want anything to do with NWMSU at this juncture(nm) - Diamond Dave MU - 7/10 11:21:12
               Why be afraid to play anyone? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 11:22:37
                    Although they're a fantastic D2 program, losing to them - Diamond Dave MU - 7/10 11:34:19
                         Can’t be worse than averaging 9 wins over 3 years. (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 11:35:30
                              Well we're trying to erase those embarrassing years right? - Diamond Dave MU - 7/10 11:38:36
                                   No exhibition game win or loss really matters. (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 11:52:07
                                        To a lot of the fans, it sure would. Majority are probably - Diamond Dave MU - 7/10 11:53:37
                                             most fans do not give two fvcks about MU basketball - Jeff85 MU - 7/11 11:09:44
                                             Seems unlikely that fans will be at games next season - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 11:57:08
                                   If I remember right they only lost to Duke at Cameron by - NWMizzouFan MU - 7/10 11:47:21
                                        50% shot anywhere. Mizzou Arena has ceased being - Diamond Dave MU - 7/10 11:54:10
                    We have avged 12.8 wins over last 6 yrs, 5 in SEC play - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 11:27:57
                         If you are afraid of playing a D2 team in an exhibition - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 11:34:33
                              RE: If you are afraid of playing a D2 team in an exhibition - oldtgr MU - 7/10 12:21:59
                              Last sentence is correct, save for a burdensome contract - Diamond Dave MU - 7/10 11:41:35
                                   The contract was earned. - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 11:55:37
                                        If Pinson is indeed staying and the team is 100% healthy - Diamond Dave MU - 7/10 11:56:58
                                             I don’t see many coaching changes coming across college hoop - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 11:59:01
                                                  True. 21-22 might be very ugly. That'll do it for him(nm) - Diamond Dave MU - 7/10 12:00:33
                                                       For Cuonzo to be here long term he probably needs - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/10 12:18:24
                              That wasn't my reason, it is just a reason - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 11:37:31
          SLU and Memphis just set up a home and home (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 7/10 11:09:20
