Got some pimp daddies on this team.

Where is Kermit these days anyway

In Kansas.

Sooooo....any long term concern with Porter's injury? And what is his injury exactly? I keep seeing left leg, hip and/or back. Which is it? The secrecy and lack of detail kinda concerns me...

He's Pittsburg's problem.

So **** those guys. They have good fried chicken but they're about to pair it with some really terrible basketball.

Oh boy...

Any truth to the TigerBoard (I know I know) rumors that MPJ might be dealing with a sciatic nerve issue and could be out until January?

Duncan? Anyone? Lol

That would depend on the nature of the injury that is causing the sciatica. If it is just inflammation around the nerve from a muscle strain or subluxation, anti-inflammatories and rest would take care of it. If it is due to a herniated disc, he'd need a cortisone shot and rehab at the very least.

Well yeah, he's like 29 years old.

Wow. Every year Rusty says ISU will win the conference, get a 1 or 2 seed. So if Rusty thinks ISU will be as bad as a bubble team, they probably are only good for like 9 wins this year.

LMAO

They'd still beat any team coached by Kim Anderson.

And that includes a game where Kim Anderson is allowed to coach the Golden State Warriors for a day.

I was openly rooting for Kansas when they played Pitt State. I was disappointed that Pitt broke 50 and KU didn't quite manage to double them up.

**** you, Kermit.

I haven't heard anything like that. Think it's wild speculation.

Mizzoufanstuff

Even the possibility of a bright period makes Mizzou fans reflexively rail against it. Poor ol' Gabe doesn't know what to do with himself when a team that loses its best player sets about mauling a Power 5 school and then waxes the kind of weak opponent that the old regime beats by 4 or even loses to.

So what's he do? Gets together with Pete Scantlebury and they generate a controversy in the post-game presser.

Look - the kid may be injured. Shit happens; there's nothing that Cuonzo or Gabe or Sterk or even Jesus himself - the righteous one, Bill Self - can do about it.

The fanbase's refusal to enjoy ANYTHING has gone from macabre to hilarious at this point. Chris alive - the team is relevant again even without MPJ. If the dude never plays a minute this team will still go out there and give all but maybe the top 2 teams in the SEC a real fight. They'll go out and play their asses off, win quite a few games and generally be good kids to root for (seriously, how can anyone not love Kevin Puryear right now?).

Settle down, Mizzoufan; things will be what they are.

I don't give a shit who is playing as long as they are playing good and winning games. I'm excited as hell, even if MPJ doesn't play a game this year.
