There has been little to brag about recently in regards to the annual Braggin’ Rights game between Mizzou and Illinois, so the last thing some local hoops fans might want to see is more of the Tigers and Illini at Scottrade Center.
With all the buzz created by Cuonzo Martin’s hiring at Mizzou and Brad Underwood at Illinois last month, though, we are reminded how badly fans in this area long to see the Tigers and Illini thrive. With that in mind, we reached out to Martin and St. Louis University coach Travis Ford recently to ask if they would consider adding each other to the schedule again.
