Seems like this deserves its own thread. The news will start coming fast over the next week or two, IMO. Recruiting is a 365-day event and we can't afford to be rudderless for long.

My vote - Cuonzo Martin.

Discuss.

Search committee thoughts are that Martin would be a BIG settle, not a win.

Where do you get this info?

The only names that have been leaked publicly are Painter and Martin.

I'd easily take Martin over Smart, Jacobsen, and Mooney.

The more I get away from it, the happier I am to be rid of 40 Minutes of Bull****. I still want Anderson to die, though.

DeArmond is reporting Mizzou has permission to speak w/ Painter.

Fritz88 · 03-26-2011, 03:39 PM

I don't blame him for leaving. Good luck in finding a coach who can get you 20+ ones every other year.

Yep and yep.

This is a great opportunity for MU to take a big step forward. Alden better not **** up this hire.

Anyone here subscribe at Power Mizzou?

I love the Painter talk, but I will not believe it's actually a possibility until it happens. Why would a guy leave his alma mater and a job he was groomed for? You know Purdue will up his pay or at least meet in the middle of what Mizzou is offering.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Painter and Martin use both Mizzou and Purdue to negotiate off each other. Painter will tell Purdue and Martin what Mizzou is offering him, helping him get a raise at Purdue and Martin negotiate with better info against Mizzou.

You can sign up for a free 7-day trial. This might be the right 7 days to do it.

It's a "free" 7 day trial that requires your CC info. And after 7 days if you don't CX the script, they continue to charge you. And in many cases they charge you anyway during the free trial.

It's a Rivals.com site. They all operate under that premise.

Sure-Oz · 03-26-2011, 03:55 PM

The news will get out for free anyway...

Ha, well, that's good to know. Obviously, I hadn't even investigated it that far.

To answer your previous question, I know a few guys here and there and hear off-the-record stuff occasionally.

What I hear is that the interest did NOT originate with Mizzou reaching out to Painter, but that it was the other way around. And that it was expressed BEFORE Anderson to Arkie really heated up.

If Painter reached out personally, this isn't the agent fishing for money.

If Missouri replaces Mike ANderson with Matt Painter, it's a MAJOR upgrade. No two ways about it.

That's just ... mind-boggling.
