NCAA Basketball: SEC Basketball Tipoff Vasha Hunt-USA TODAY Sports

We’re getting closer to the basketball season, so what better time to bring on one of the top College Basketball writers in the country, C.J. Moore of TheAthletic.com.

We brought in Moore to get his take on this current version of the Missouri Tigers, including what Cuonzo Martin will do without Jontay Porter, expectations for Torrence Watson, and what will it take for Missouri to make the NCAA tournament?

Then, Matt and Sam take time to discuss Dru Smith and transfer waiver drama, plus previewing the coming season opener against Central Arkansas.
