I assumed this would have been created already. Just wanted to make sure it was here for all those who wanted wax poetic about THE MAN.

This is Mizzou, that's not supposed to happen. Wow.

Two last second threes for wins this season. Insane. Not to mention what he did in the Arkansas game.

Dude is very polarizing. He can look awful at times. But he’s redeemed himself over and over.

Just watched the ending again. CY sat on the chair, just looking exhausted, shaking his head. ONIONS

Are you SHITTING ME, lmao

Did I mention that I love this phuking team! That is all!

Are we a tourney lock at that point?

Are we top 25?

Put some respect on his name

Glad we didn’t have to rely on the refs

With all the fouls going their way … why not go zone. Mizzou playing out of control with the man to man and just my opinion but it would change momentum back perhaps

F* these f*ing refs. That's all I've got to say.

How many turnovers can we have on this.

-This feels like a good time to remind everyone that Tennessee is the No. 1 3-point defense in the country, holding opponents to below 30% shooting from beyond the arc. So calling what Mizzou has done today shoot-wise "impressive" is an understatement, especially on the road. It's legitimately jaw-dropping.

-Dennis Gates went to a lot more three-forward lineups and it's...actually worked? Being able to match the Vols' size (as best they could, anyway) really made a difference on the boards. Having that much length also helped picking up turnovers in the 1-3-1 zone. And the offense didn't really fall off, which would be your main concern with only two guards on the floor.

-I know I just wrote about Aidan Shaw not really needing to have that big of a role as a freshman for Mizzou to be good. But he's been a huge difference-maker for them today. Definitely not playing like a freshman (aside from that really dreadful looking 3-pointer).

-I said in the game thread that it's funny seeing 5-foot-10 Nick Honor have a size advantage over 5-foot-9 Zakai Zeigler. But Sean East is the one who's really taken advantage of it, on both ends. He's been their best player today

-Taking a big lead into the second half plays into Mizzou's favor -- Tennessee isn't necessarily built to play fast, but they'll need to put up points in a hurry to keep pace with the Tigers.

The Tigers are bringing it today with the press. #1 defense in the country. Never thought I’d see Tennessee get this shaken.




And yes @GabeD @dmatterpd , feel free to steal that label

Down 6 with a little over a minute to go. Working their way out of the tournament.

What team has the better resume?

Team A:

• Record: 19-5
• Q1: 4-2
• Q2: 4-3
• Q3: 4-0
• Q4: 7-0

Team B:

• Record: 18-6
• Q1: 3-6
• Q2: 4-0
• Q3: 3-0
• Q4: 8-0

“The No. 1 thing I noticed … was that he’s the best rebounder I’ve ever seen in my life,” Morosco said.

Will anyone second that?

“He’s one of the best rebounders I’ve ever coached,” said Cole Dewey, Diarra’s first head coach at Garden City, “and that’s evident in his stats over the years.”

There are days Gates said he watches Diarra in practice and sees the best player on the court, and there are others when the MU coach sees a player who still needs to find some consistency.

“You all haven’t seen him play up to the potential that I have seen him play at,” Gates said. “You haven’t seen him dominate at the level I have seen him dominate, and I truly believe his best basketball is ahead of him.”

78% total returning (9th overall)
77% offense (25th)
80% defense (9th)

Also listed as one of the teams most likely to improve in 2023

“If Drinkwitz can finally figure out the quarterback position— 2022 starter Brady Cook returns, along with two recent blue-chippers (redshirt freshman Sam Horn and Miami transfer Jake Garcia) — the Tigers might have everything else they need for a nice step forward in 2023.”

It's the slowest time of the year in terms of recruiting, not a whole lot shaking right now. Rather than cobble together a bunch of stuff that you already know or make stuff up, @the chamber has the week off and will return next Friday

To no chamber today
