Honestly, I'm not sure. People were upset with Norm. Mizzou wanted one of those young promising assistants you always hear about. The "sexy" pick, instead of a good old fashioned basketball coach. I guess after so many years with Norm, they were tired of "old fashioned".
It was obviously a huge mistake. We're still trying to dig out of that hole.
