Missouri State AD confirms there have been talks of a home-and-home with Mizzou men's hoops

Missouri State Athletics Director Kyle Moats was asked during Friday's Board of Governors meeting about the possibility of playing Mizzou in men's basketball and he confirmed that there have been talks of a home-and-home series.

The News-Leader reported on May 3 that it acquired a video of Mizzou head coach and former MSU head coach Cuonzo Martin saying he was bringing the Tigers to Springfield this upcoming season.

Moats said talks of the series are currently on hold, but he believes a series with the Tigers would be good for the university amid the coronavirus pandemic.
