The Missourian: Anderson satisfied with Missouri season
Next season Missouri will have to find a way to replace starters J.T. Tiller, Zaire Taylor and Keith Ramsey who all graduate at the end of the year. However, Anderson expects the incoming freshmen class to help fill the gap. The class includes forward Tony Mitchell, who was voted the Dallas Morning News Player of the Year and guard Phillip Pressey, who was named to the Dallas Morning News’ first team all-area.
However, Anderson said next year’s team will have something more important — experience. The Tigers will have five juniors and one sophomore with extensive playing time, something Anderson said that will be key for next season to help make it a third straight NCAA Tournament appearance.
"Experience is the greatest teacher," Anderson said. "And that is why I’m excited about this group.

KC Star: MU basketball season wrapup
•BIGGEST SURPRISE: It was hard to believe how much the injury to Justin Safford in late February hurt. Safford was another popular target for criticism early on because of his propensity to miss point-blank shots. But Safford’s torn ACL caused a wholesale restructuring of Anderson’s playing rotation. Laurence Bowers’ presence in the starting lineup was a good thing. His lost role as instant offense and rebounding off the bench was never filled.
•BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT: The way Marcus Denmon finished the season. Denmon’s seasonal stats showed he was Missouri’s most consistent jump shooter, but he made on only six of 24 three-pointers his last six games and seemed to become hesitant to even attempt shots.
