Robinson will give every team in the country fits.
The big man for most teams is closer to Whithey than Robinson, and MU didn't exactly have a problem with Jeff.
Yeah, anytime you have a slightly smaller, slightly more skilled version of Dwight Howard on your team, you're going to be a tough matchup. I don't exactly see our inability to contain that freak as being demonstrative of a complete inability to deal with interior size.
Talk to me after the 2nd Baylor game and I might change my mind, and if we lose to KSU again but are actually hitting our jumpshots, I'll also reconsider, but dealing with size through drawing charges and daring the big men to put the ball on the floor has worked out well for us thus far. We haven't lost a game this year because of a size disadvantage; OSU was white-hot from the floor and MU couldn't find the bucket if they had a map against KSU.
