The Tribune Article goes into greater detail and the story checks out. Dude was friends with a major booster because he rents the land for his stereo shop from said booster and they both love Mizzou hoops. Major booster is allowed to purchase seats on the team airplane for major events (standard practice for most universities, in fact). He evidently bought them for a dude that sold some coke. I'm not concerned.

I don't think theres any question. Hope this kid sticks. Two years is an eternity. Still, it's a huge coup for Miller. Kid sounds like a star.

The other thing about B-Rush is that he never lied. Coach Self would be like, “Did everyone make curfew last night? If you didn’t make curfew, raise your hand.” All of us that broke curfew kept our hands down — except B-Rush. He’d raise his hand and tell on himself. Coach Self would ask him why he didn’t make curfew and he’d say, “Because the club was crackin’!” Everyone would laugh and he’d make B-Rush run a little bit. |

It's official - Mizzou hires Dave Leitao as assistant coach.
Leitao is the former head coach of UVA and DePaul and was a long-time assistant under Calhoun at UConn. Between Fuller, Miller, and Leitao, we now have one of the best coaching staffs in the country. It is damn impressive that so many top assistants want to come coach with Haith at Mizzou. |

Lets see if he can land a monster right off the bat like Miller did.

This guy seems like a good find. Here's hoping he can help us find the type of talent that he did at UCONN.

Holy crap...how'd that guy get loose?
It points to Fuller being gone next year, IMO. Guys are lining up to jockey for that #2 gig when Fuller gets his head coaching job. That is one hell of a staff that Haith's put together, though.

While I am excited about this hire I am concerned about losing Nestor. I truely think he was the key man in a lot of our success last year. I watched Haith coach at Miami and he was flat our terrible with Xs and Os. Nestor was known as a very smart guy with that portion of the game and I think he will truely be missed.

Of the two I have heard and read a lot more about Leitao. It sounds like he will be able to help out in the spot but Nestor was such a wealth of knowledge for Haith to lean on. Miller was more of an advance scout and game prep guy and not so much an ingame adjustment guy. Miller was said to really help give his team an edge due to his prep work so hopefully Haith can use that info to set up a good gameplan.

Top 15 recruit D'Angelo Russell visited Ohio State, Indiana, and Louisville, but after his visit to Mizzou he had this to say:
