BenFred: Mizzou fans hoping for Romar need an intervention

Most assume Missouri will part ways with third-year men's basketball coach Kim Anderson after this season, though athletics director Jim Sterk's loyalty should not be overlooked.

Plenty have spent most of the Tigers' 7-18 season debating who should replace Anderson.

No one can make a logical case for Washington's Lorenzo Romar, whose seat is as hot as it ever has been during his 15-year run with the Huskies.

I bring this up because I'm sick and tired of hearing people ask: What about Romar?

Aargh.

The chatter has reached the point that a reporter recently asked Romar about the rumor that he might pull a Frank-Haith-like escape, fleeing the posse in Seattle for a fresh start at Mizzou.
