What’s Mosley brought to the Tigers?

“Too much,” East said Wednesday before the Tigers tipped off practice at Mizzou Arena.

So what should concern opponents about the transfer’s game?
“Everything,” East added.

Care to elaborate?
“He’s as advertised — and he’s even more,” East said.

“Probably one of the best scorers that I’ve ever seen in person,” senior guard and co-captain Tre Gomillion said. “He’s so quick. ... He knows how to hold the line and get to the goal when he needs to. And it’s so hard to guard him because he’s such a good shooter. He’s got the best of both worlds.”

As Mizzou’s longest-tenured player, Brown has seen his share of high-level SEC guards over the years. Where does Mosley’s skills rate against the best he’s played against in the SEC?

“If not at that level then better,” Brown said. “I remember I was talking to him one day, he said early on he started off as a forward, like (playing) with his back to the basket. It’s just crazy how he went from that to where he is now.”

So far 11 ranked teams have lost today. Lots of parity out there this year. While the last three games have been disappointing, I believe Mizzou is still a tournament team.

@GabeD I really wish you guys would post the Gates and Drink postgame press conferences in their entirety or link to it if it exists somewhere else.

Maybe the only thing I can point to that was better during the pandemic was the Postgame Drink. Loved the live discussion, post game comments from Drink and questions from listeners. Would pay more for the subscription if there was an option to do so. Please bring this back for football and basketball!!

That's where we will sit for the rest of the season. Honestly I don't think even the most optimistic Mizzou fan thought the Tourney was a realistic target before the season. Everybody get on the roller coaster, hopefully at the end we will have enjoyed the ride!

Golden throwing temper tantrums on the court is embarrassing and akin to Bruce Webber or Bruce Pearl.

Pass.

In Gates I Trust.

Aggs race to first place with the road win..they are for real but we should prevail at home

No answer for the 7 Footer - he is athletic, good shooter and smart. Great game - would have been better had we won but Florida hit their wide open 3s and we didn't. Wild atmosphere- Noise like Hearnes back in the day when the meter hit 100. Coach did a great job - was all over the Refs. and did as well as he could - substituting many, many times. We just got beat by a better Team today in their house. - don't give up. I got my money's worth.

It’s so comical (and predictable) to read the takes in this forum after a loss….

Starting lineups are posted

I’m looking for a trifecta…

2 point loss on the road…will be ranked and a great test for us

…which is likely the bare minimum to being an NCAA tournament team, where do those road wins come from assuming (best guess) 2-3 home losses? Florida was one of the 2-3 most likely IMO,

At Ole Miss (obviously)
At Georgia?

Road wins are going to be hard to find…which makes last couple games particularly tough to swallow.

-Colin Castleton really found his footing in the second half, he completely stuffed the stat sheet. Mizzou didn't have many answers for him.

-I thought the Tigers missed a lot of bunnies, which has to be soul-crushing when you're trying to build momentum. They did a really good job of getting to the rim, they just didn't finish as many as they should. The refs let a lot of contact go in this game, but I thought that was the case on both ends, at least.

-Mizzou tried and tried to get a run going. Florida just wouldn't let them do it. Kobe had a dunk to trim the lead to five and Florida matched it on the other end. Kobe hit a 3 on the next trip down to quiet the crowd and the Gators matched it, again. That's good teams do at home, though. Mizzou's gotta find a way to keep going.

-Again, I don't think Mo Diarra deserves too much criticism for how he played. But I do question Dennis Gates' decision to throw him into the game in crunch time. Gates had called timeout down six and put Diarra in the game. Diarra somehow got matched up on Kyle Lofton and committed a foul 40 feet from the basket, sending him to the line for bonus free throws. Diarra was subbed out after the first free throw. Neither Kobe Brown nor Noah Carter were in foul trouble. The foul on Diarra wasn't good, but I don't think he should've been on the court to begin with.

-It's the first time this year Mizzou's lost back-to-back games. They've got two really tough ones next week. The good news is that the season is far from over, they'll be at home and they'll have time to regroup. Arkansas just lost to Vanderbilt -- they're not invincible. But the Tigers do seem like they need a reset.

Hopefully, the team will be fired up to give him a great gift as he turns 42 today.

22% and 16% from three in the last two games. They will beat no one in the SEC if this continues. Two bad games in a row and now get Arkansas/Alabama back to back. Not looking good.

Currently on top of the leaderboard midway through the second round! Peter Malnati will miss the cut unfortunately

-Great start from Mizzou. It seemed like they really came out looking to correct what went wrong against Texas A&M. This is the SEC, though, so you knew Florida was going to settle in and make their own run.

-Huge, huge, huge minutes from Tre Gomillion.He seemed to be the conductor during the team's game-opening run. He hasn't been as productive in the past few games, but he's stepped up today.

-The offense once again got muddied up once Florida stopped turning the ball over and forced the Tigers to play in the halfcourt. I think Mizzou did a good job at getting to the free throw line to counter it. If easy shots aren't coming naturally, try to draw contact.

-Missouri's done a decent job against Colin Castleton. He hasn't been a non-factor (it's rare that an All-SEC player is) but he also hasn't taken over the game. I think it's especially impressive that the Tigers have only allowed two offensive rebounds while grabbing 4 of their own.

-Mo Diarra got a bunch of short stints in the half. A few of you have asked if we would ever see him in the rotation and Gabe and I would always say "Whose minutes does he take?" The answer is Aidan Shaw, who didn't play at all in the first half. I think it's too early to say that one is clearly better than the other. But it's clear there aren't really enough moments for both players to get on the court.

over my Troy Buchanan girls last night...I'm mildly surprised these girls are going to Rock Bridge and not Tolton like their older brothers.

Anybody familiar with these two and are either or both big time college prospects?

Could be even more after the moore we talked about earlier

kU vs Iowa St is relegated to the *Big 12 “network” or ESPN+. Even Ks St vs TCU is on ESPN2.

The basketball games are all 30 minutes staggered. Not that hard ESPN

Noticed it earlier in the year , very smart. I get espn has more games to show so taking out a 30 minute chunk 4 times a day isn’t great but still. Maybe run them staggered on espn and espn 2?
