2022 - 30.3 RPG and 2.7 blocks/gm 2023 - 34.0 RPG and 6.6 blocks/gm We haven't hit conference play, so I'm guessing those numbers will go down. Last edited by dlphg9; 12-03-2023 at 08:32 PM.. |

I want to congratulate Mizzou on winning the game. Your pep band was lit.

Gates passes a big test. Keeping a top in-state recruit in Missouri.

Missouri has enough basketball talent that if you could close the borders, you're a perennial top 25 team. Maybe not a Final 4 squad with just in-state talent, but a team that should be in consideration for the Sweet 16 most years.
Then again, we've been saying that for...what...30 years? Nobody's managed the trick yet... |

Are we entering a golden age for Mizzou sports?
I don't ever remember both the FB and men's BB programs on the verge of this much success at the same time. If we keep all these hoops recruits, that team could be a force in a couple years. |

One thing that seems to help is that these kids seem to love Gates and Eli. Maybe that'll keep kids from transferring out.

I didn't expect anything out of them this season. Everyone who follows even slightly thought this season would be a transition season. They lost 2 guys to the NBA and lost some solid role players. In the post you quoted, all I talked about was the recruiting class next year and how they could be really good "in a couple years". So it wasn't quite the "gotcha" moment you thought it was. Better luck next time. |

Gates is building a roster and it takes time. He over achieved last year. The fact that Mizzou is probably going to be .500 or slightly above when the season ends doesn't change what Gates is doing and how bright the future is. Cuonzo couldn't recruit for shit and ran an archaic offense. Kim Anderson is a clown. Gates is none of that and is killing it on the recruiting trail. If not next season, I'd expect 2025-2026 for Mizzou to take off. |

I know it's not what Chief fans tend to do, but sometimes one needs to take a bit of a longer-term view of the program. It would be difficult to not love what Gates is doing and how he's doing it. |
