There’s no way to avoid it, really. In yesterday’s Study Hall piece on Mizzou’s win over Arkansas, the conversation in comments eventually shifted back toward Kim Anderson, how many wins he would need to perhaps earn a fourth year as head coach, whether that would actually be good, etc. We don’t remain in the present tense for very long as fans — we’re balancing the past, present, and future at the same time.
But I would advise soaking this win in a bit longer, and not only because it was an actual win. It meant a lot to a cool girl and her family.
