As the usual five trillion colleges came hustling after Stipanovich, Notre Dame's Digger Phelps, perhaps figuring that Stipo couldn't resist being coached by an undertaker's son, hinted that he had Stipanovich "locked up." But Missouri Coach Norm Stewart persuaded Stipo that he should be "united" with his state university. Phelps still is searching for a center at South Bend.

Stipanovich provided instant credibility to Missouri basketball. Attendance at Hearnes Center increased by 2,836 a game in his freshman season, the largest rise in the country.

               He played when Jr was here and the year after, then gone, nm - MU-TULSA MU - 9/21 16:01:03
                    Otherwise, I'd say your assessment is fairly accurate. (nm) - zounami MU - 9/21 16:03:03
                         Crap you are right, I guess the year he played w/o Jr - MU-TULSA MU - 9/21 16:04:18

               Agree, he was a very strong recruiter at MU - FIJItiger MU - 9/21 15:10:46
                    He's also a smart, charismatic individual who turned out to - zounami MU - 9/21 15:14:17
                         True. But without a doubt he also - FIJItiger MU - 9/21 15:19:09
                              That Elite 8 run was a clear sign that he had potential... - zounami MU - 9/21 15:22:01
                                   Eh, maybe. I think that team kind of won in spite of - FIJItiger MU - 9/21 15:24:28
          Absolutely, but fan support & enthusiasm depend on either... - zounami MU - 9/21 13:57:56
               Most of the winning coaches don’t fit either - wu-tangtiger MU - 9/21 14:05:22
                    Bennett and Wright are 2 of 350 coaches - LamarFrazier MU - 9/21 14:11:47
                         Those are just a couple of examples - wu-tangtiger MU - 9/21 14:16:13
                              You use 2 HOF coaches to justify a genearlization - LamarFrazier MU - 9/21 14:18:42
                                   That's true, but people often cite well-known examples... - zounami MU - 9/21 14:31:10
                                        HOF coaches are usually the ones that regularly - wu-tangtiger MU - 9/21 14:36:47

                                                       They both are, but do you think that they have - FIJItiger MU - 9/21 14:47:39
                                                            To me, Indiana BB is like Nebraska FB – a thing of the past. - zounami MU - 9/21 14:53:10
                                                                 And in a way that's fitting, since the Big10 as a conference - zounami MU - 9/21 15:08:05
                                                                 That is what a blue blood is though, a program with - FIJItiger MU - 9/21 14:59:48
                                                                      Not necessarily. "Blue blood" is a colloquial term but there - zounami MU - 9/21 15:02:45

                                                                           "it's not really a recruiting advantage"... are you serious? - zounami MU - 9/21 15:27:50
                                                                                Are all of those coaching incompetent? - wu-tangtiger MU - 9/21 15:29:21

                                                       so the words of a 17 yr old disproves criticism of CM? - LamarFrazier MU - 9/21 15:01:41

                                             It’s not flawed. But you have decided that shouldn’t - wu-tangtiger MU - 9/21 14:25:14
                                                  you cited 2 HOF coaches out of 350 - LamarFrazier MU - 9/21 15:03:49

                    Exactly. He seems driven. That's part of the "it factor". (nm) - zounami MU - 9/21 14:26:42
