All those scenarios available for conf tourney seeding and you got the worst possible outcome.
I watched the entire game and saw what Pressey did in that last 30 seconds. Haith was right to lose it. |

Phil must be taking money from some bigwhig in the SEC office that didn't want Mizzou to win the conference the first year in.
Well done, Phil. Well done. Meanwhile, Mike Dixon is sitting around in his basement beating off, thinking about playing for Suitcase Mike in Fayetteville next year. |

Pressey from three point stripe this season: 5 for 36. That's around 14%. So why is he chucking up three's ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS on the road trying to tie or win games? Same thing over and over and over again. I put a lot of this on Haith. Pressey should be on the bench in the last minute of a tight game. Let Bell run the point. He's a better clutch player, much better free throw shooter too.

Crunch time five should pretty obviously be Oriakhi, Bowers, Brown, Ross, Bell. Only one absolute liability in a clutch situation (Brown).

Listen, this stuff with point shaving is not far fetched. It happened with Auburn LAST YEAR. The FBI investigated Auburn's starting point guard for point shaving:

I just hope he's stupid enough to go pro so he can get laughed at in pre-draft camps and wither away in a third-rate Greek League.

Pressey had a trifecta of back-breaking fail yesterday: 1. Poor shot selection (3) ignites TN run. 2. Cannot inbound the ball, all the while with 2 timeouts to spare. 3. Catches air to end the game. 2 and 3 are so ridiculously bad that point shaving absolutely has to factor into the analysis. The kid simply cannot be allowed to see the floor at the end of games. And I'm totally in agreement with the notion that I'd bench him for the first game, at least, of the conference tournament. If that means one and done, so what? |

I wouldn't bench him, I'd come out in the media and suspend him for conduct detrimental to the team. He needs to be humiliated.

I don't care what his rationale is, he's done it so many times this year that he's obviously incapable of learning from short benchings.
My thoughts: if you poison your relationship with him and he leaves, then that's great, because then you open up a scholarship and you don't have him killing your team in the final minutes. If he learns from it, all the better, as he has the talent to be a very productive college player. It's obvious that just pulling him for stupid shots, as has happened over the last month, doesn't get through to him, nor does growing and obvious media criticism. So escalate the situation.
