I don’t want to rain on the happy parade from yesterday afternoon, as we bid a thanks and farewell to Mizzou Senior Javon Pickett, and overcame a sluggish start to beat Georgia at home. But we need to start talking about this.
I briefly considered titling this post “Cuonzo Martin failed and it’s the fans fault”, because I’m completely aware of how our pointing out that Mizzou struggles with fan attendance in comparison to other schools has become something like “Rock M Nation blames all basketball woes on the fans.”
Making a nuanced argument as to why the program might be suffering getting boiled down to one of the points has always been funny to me.
