Dru was all defensive team so he was fine. But with X not caring the 3 which was Mark needed to be a better defensive position. It wasn’t.

Tilmon also wasn’t great when pulled away from the rim.

JT made some of the dumbest fouls in MU history...nm - tigertix MU - 6/16 17:44:54

Except almost everyone improved - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/16 16:34:22

You could say that his first 2-3 seasons - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/16 15:04:06

Or perhaps he just progressed to that point as a player - KC rules MU - 6/16 16:05:06

I don't get the SEC network. A couple games were - alstl MU - 6/16 15:26:07

I'm not a Cuonzo basher but I do believe his salary - alstl MU - 6/16 16:52:58

that collapse resulted in an above-average win % for MU (nm) - zoomer 99 - 6/16 13:39:19

And a disappointing, underachieving season (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 6/16 13:42:56

Every MU season is pretty disappointing - zoomer 99 - 6/16 14:04:27

No... 2002, 2009, even 2012 (despite its ending) were all - zounami MU - 6/16 23:23:59

some of us are a little more ambitious than that - zoomer 99 - 6/17 09:40:09

reaching the Elite 8 isn't a disappointment for MU fans... - zounami MU - 6/18 17:31:14

yep. even with the struggles they did better than - TigerA MU - 6/16 14:06:10

Defense is where they lost those games. - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/16 13:24:13

why do u think the "defense fell apart" late in the season? - zounami MU - 6/16 13:53:52

Mizzou wasn’t athletic enough. Film got out - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/16 13:57:54

ok, so other coaches adjusted, but Cuonzo didn't (nm) - zounami MU - 6/16 21:44:16

Incorrect - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/16 21:53:16

adjust to the adjustments. We just kept doing the - SabertoothTiger MU - 6/16 14:08:00

Mizzou changed, or at least tried making changes - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/16 14:17:32

so Cuonzo's poor recruiting was the problem? (nm) - zounami MU - 6/16 22:40:01

Yep. Mizzou really needed either - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/16 23:07:42

he's gotta get off the couch and recruit (nm) - zounami MU - 6/16 23:21:50

Mizzou has to be better at evaluating players - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/16 23:39:50

if your coach is CM and he's "got enough money to retire"... - zounami MU - 6/17 00:53:49

The pandemic-effect of less practice, which benefitted us... - zounami MU - 6/16 13:44:14

LOL(nm) - TigerA MU - 6/16 13:48:25

ok, what's your theory for why the team regressed so much? (nm) - zounami MU - 6/16 13:51:47

we stopped playing above ourselves. we were a very flawed - TigerA MU - 6/16 14:00:25
