What Really happened to Mizzou Bball?

1) Mike Alden cannot hire a basketball coach to save his life
2) Because Alden ****ed up so colossally and embarrassingly with the Snyder hire, he turned into a micromanager, which made no coaches want to work for him.
3)Dumb **** blue hair alumni thought that the Norm years were something to aspire to rather than long stretches of mediocrity interspersed with some nice regular season records and a horrendous tournament record. Thus, they think that Norm's last lead assistant, who couldn't recruit a straight man to dive on a naked Kate Upton, would somehow be able to recruit to players despite not having been at this level since his Freshmen were wearing Pull-Ups.
Long story short--Norm had problems with a lot of black players. His "True Son" can't relate to them worth a damn either, and rather than try to bridge a gap in age and culture he continually utters offensively ignorant and out of touch platitudes while being wholly unable to actually do the one thing he was praised for--draw up an intelligible offensive or defensive scheme.
Because the vast majority of Mizzou fans are mouth-breathing idiots who yearn for the nostalgia of mediocrity, they applaud this pathetic and transparent act of "discipline" (which is really closer to unintentional racism), acting like it is going to accomplish anything other than a mass exodus of talent and make sure that nothing beyond MIAA to OVC talent comes here in the future.
Basically, Kim Anderson is the neutron bomb that the True Son set detonated over Columbia. Yeah, you don't see any physical damage to the facilities, but the program will shortly be depopulated of anything resembling a DI basketball player.
Given the relative level of talent on this team (they have more 4 star players than they have since 2002-3), Anderson should and likely will go down as the worst coach in the history of both revenue sports at Mizzou, even though none of the aforementioned mouth breathers will ever admit it.
He will never win more than 18 games in any season here.
From a Kansas perspective: imagine if you took the personal skills of Mark Mangino along with the tactical and recruiting incompetence of Turner Gill (along with the wholly misguided disciplinary priorities). Now, imagine that the hire was also driven by affiliations with an overrated prior regime (like say the Chiefs hiring Kurt Schottenheimer).
That's Kim Anderson. The mere thought of him makes me want to vomit.
