I'd probably take the over, but just barely. With the way they schedule in the non-con, it would be hard to not win 17-18.

Maybe it would be comforting to look at this from the point of view of quantum mechanics. I believe the chances of anything happening in some world line are 1, so on one of these world lines, we made the best possible head coaching hire.

They will be lucky to win 6 games in conference.

I just can't ****ing believe that the board of curators of a major research institution is so ****ing stupid that they believe that this guy is the best possible fit for a head basketball coach.

I have to say, they don't care at all about winning. He will run a clean program and as long as there is no NCAA funny business he will be able to lose 15-18 games a season and it won't matter.

I think they're a bunch of old farts who care more about improving the program's image instead of their results.

It's Alden's decision, and there would have to be extreme circumstances for the Board to question it.
What's amazing is that the University used a search firm. I mean that is truly, truly unfathomable. A coach with multiple Final Fours is out there, waiting to be hired, and Alden finds an old dude in the D2 ranks who counters concerns about his age with a lack of meaningful experience. I mean, what could go wrong? |

Given how tightly the successes and failures of Mizzou and the Chiefs seem to align, I can assume only that Dorsey is currently hard at work to make Alex Smith the highest paid player in the NFL.

"Hopefully we can win some games and graduate some players."
I now know how KSU fans felt when Huggins took over. The ticket office at Mizzou Arena must have been ****ing overwhelmed. |

Hours later and I'm still in shock and denial...JFC I can't believe this is true.
