Mizzou Basketball Links

Interesting piece from Steve Walentik yesterday ... I agree that coaches congratulating themselves for making the tournament every year is kind of silly, but ... it is kind of hard to do that. And really, what did both Tubby Smith and Ben Howland in, as much as anything, was previous failures and not getting to the Tournament every year. (Plus, Minnesota has a new AD who is clearly looking to make his mark.)
