a big man who can score and rebound, and a capable point guard. You HAVE to get those pieces, then if you can add someone else who can take a spot away from someone on the current roster, that's gravy.

If you added just those two pieces to the current roster, this is a much, much more competitive team.

Agree or not? I think we have to patch together a decent - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 11:15:16
     We aren't doing anything - warren7 MU - 3/11 17:38:18
          That’s the type of year with a new AD - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 17:44:34
     Doesn't MU have the 4th-ranked recruiting class next year? - ERB KC - 3/11 14:50:00
          You think freshmen and the current bunch are going to be - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:08:45
               Getting Honor and Carter off the floor - Nazfan MU - 3/12 11:51:52
                    Only if the roster is upgraded. - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/12 11:55:05
     if you Tonje and Grill come back, this team needs 1 or 2 - HissingPrigs77 MU - 3/11 14:14:31
          LOL! We were not good this year at all. I am tired of - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:09:47
          Assuming Bates, Grill, and Tonje return, this team needs - tsutiger57 MU - 3/11 15:10:20
               We can't count on Bates, Grill, and Tonje coming back. And, - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:12:02
          I would go after 3 players if both of them return - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 14:19:26
               If Bates, Grill, and Tonje are our best 3 players next year, - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:13:09
                    No one is saying they will be the 3 best players. - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:18:45
                         We need at least 3 new players better than we have now(nm) - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:27:45
                              I doubt you see Mizzou add 3 better - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:44:08
                                   Again... we should aim higher. Tamar Bates is not going to - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:49:22
                                        What team added 2 NBA players in the portal - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:51:55
                                             I don't know but that is what we need if we want to win like - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:54:07
                                                  I think you are going to have to accept - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 19:16:02
                                                       We need serious NIL money. We need to pretend that MU wants - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 19:37:38
                                                            That’s well and good. It just might take more - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 19:43:06
               Sure, but what will truly move the needle is - HissingPrigs77 MU - 3/11 16:38:43
                    I get your point but we should be aiming for much - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:15:16
                         Mizzou has never been a NCAA tournament team - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:19:40
                              They did not let as many in during Norm's years. Now they - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:26:49
                                   Norm made it 66% of the time under the expanded - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:29:40
                                        Norm was a good coach. That is why there is a statue of him - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:31:48
                                             Your minimum expectation for the program - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:42:16
                                                  Yes! As it should be. Why have the program and sink all of - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:44:23
                                                       Mizzou hasn’t sunk much money into the program - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:50:49
                                                            I agree 100%.(nm) - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:54:41
     Gates never missed a jump shot or a rebound - samclemens MU - 3/11 12:50:56
          Did you see his offensive strategy and subsitutions?(nm) - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 13:28:22
               Mizzou had an elite offense last year - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 14:03:08
                    You have to adapt to the players you have. PPG this year was - Tiger_1995 MU - 3/11 18:33:52
                    Maybe not if coaches and teams you play make smart - gaber c. MU - 3/11 14:59:09
                         The things last years team was good at - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 15:01:39
                              And so if we have weaknesses at any point in the future - gaber c. MU - 3/11 15:09:01
                                   He’s going to have to recruit better - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 15:20:35
                                        I think all last year proved was that Mizzou had 2 - gaber c. MU - 3/11 15:26:15
                                             Crews couldn’t recruit - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 15:32:18
                                                  He never recruited and coached so poorly that his - gaber c. MU - 3/11 15:34:33
                                                       If Gates keeps his recruiting up - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 15:45:20
                                                            Gates proving himself to you is like Jim Jones - gaber c. MU - 3/11 15:51:15
                                                                 Being angry doesn’t help you. - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 15:57:03
                                                                      You should honestly examine the reason Dennis Gates - gaber c. MU - 3/11 16:15:20
                                                                           We know why he was hired. - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 16:45:56
                                                                                Hiring a guy like McCollum who's won what 3 or 4 - gaber c. MU - 3/11 17:13:22
                                                                                     My stance on McCollum is well known here - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 17:24:01
                                                                                          Thanks at last for an honest, reasonable response. - gaber c. MU - 3/11 17:30:18
                                                                                               They have all been honest - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 17:33:16
                                                                                                    If Mizzou had won a national championship last year - gaber c. MU - 3/11 18:11:43
                                                                                                         It’s exactly a good season and a bad season - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:17:10
                                                                                                              So the top 6 players would have been guards and one - gaber c. MU - 3/11 18:38:59
                                                                                                                   Now you are coming around to the roster construction - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:41:09

                                                                                                                             This team wasn’t in position to overcome - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 18:53:43
                                                                                                                                  No team Gates coaches where he overplays guards - gaber c. MU - 3/11 19:03:07
                                                                                                                                       You keep circling back to the known roster issues - wu-tangtiger MU - 3/11 19:19:04
