and then Melvin Watkins aside I think Mike Anderson's group of assistants was rather poor (although you can't really exclude Melvin like he wasn't there). Outside of those two instances though I think without question Cuonzo has the worst group of assistants supporting him at MU at any other point since at least the 1970's.

               except I don't see drink going off the rails. He seems - SabertoothTiger MU - 6/14 11:52:48
                    To be fair, it was 1999 when Quin was hired - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 11:57:24
                         I went to a Coach K seminar about the same time - SabertoothTiger MU - 6/14 12:15:50
                              Certainly the opposite approach would be making - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 12:24:03

               Agreed, he was a good example of MU taking that approach(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 11:14:28
          A smart, high-energy coach who excels at recruiting. (nm) - zounami MU - 6/14 11:01:02
               Smart is an important distinction - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 11:13:16
                    This. Its why Drink has a chance to rise to the top. Many - SabertoothTiger MU - 6/14 11:59:49
                    Yep. Cuonzo allegedly scored a 17 on his ACT, which is - zounami MU - 6/14 11:21:01
                         Oh come on. Where do you come up with this stuff? (nm) - Lerxst MU - 6/14 19:20:30
                         To make this less currently personal, Mike Anderson is to - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 11:26:13
                         I do think that early on in CM's career, before he was rich - zounami MU - 6/14 11:25:17
                              To continue on this path, its the whole work smarter not - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 11:32:09
          McCollum would fit that then - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/14 10:18:13
               English wasn't smart enough to keep his mouth - SabertoothTiger MU - 6/14 12:25:31
                    He used to post on this board - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 12:29:33
               No on English - Diamond Dave MU - 6/14 10:30:11
                    Why? We haven’t even seen what he can do - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/14 10:34:55
                         No doubt but we cannot afford to eff up another hire - Diamond Dave MU - 6/14 10:47:34
                              While it could work out, I don't think that is the route to - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 11:36:20

                                             His overall record was pretty meh. Can't compare the - Diamond Dave MU - 6/14 13:07:41
                                                  Because he didn't stay in D2 (nm) - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 15:29:46
                                             Seems the most likely way for Mizzou - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/14 13:03:14
                                                  That is a recent trend/concern - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 15:28:53
                                                       When Mizzou hired Mike Anderson - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/14 15:36:35
                                                            Hmmm, I don't recall it that way. Beilein was a candidate, - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 16:02:26

                                                                           At the time he was the guy Mizzou should have prioritized - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/14 16:26:14
                                                                                He wasn't hired that offseason. He returned to coach at - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 16:33:49
                                                                                     So we got beat out by West Virginia - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/14 17:04:01
                                                                                          I think Mike Anderson was our preference. We landed the - FIJItiger MU - 6/14 17:50:21
                                                                                               And Mizzou landed a good coach - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/14 18:06:58
                              McCollum is an excellent coach, no doubt. But he has never - DHighlander NWMSU - 6/14 10:58:15
                                   He already recruits D1 players - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/14 11:22:00
