COLUMBIA, MO. • Missouri basketball coach Kim Anderson knows Tuesday’s game against Texas A&M will be the final home game for senior Russell Woods, but could it be Anderson’s Mizzou Arena farewell, too? Asked Monday if he’s thought about that possibility, the third-year coach took a swig of water.
“No, not really,” he said. “I haven’t. I’ve tried to continue to keep my focus. We talked to our guys a few weeks ago when we saw obviously we weren’t going to win the league or go to the NCAA Tournament or whatever goals you always set for your team, to just take one game at a time and try to treat that like it’s Game 7 of the NBA Finals or World Series or whatever that is and don’t look ahead and don’t look behind.
