Where is the genius poster that said Morez is a liability (7 minute guy).

He is going to be a liability if he transfers to MSU next year.

Also mizzou point guard has been pushing boswell with his off hand to create space ive already counted him doing that 5 times at least already I really hope brad points that out to the refs I mean it's so obvious idk how the refs haven't called it at least once smh

Johnson, Ryley and Booth. Ben needs about 10 minutes a game would be reasonable?

Hate to pile on, but Ben goes to bench, we get stops, go on a run and have the lead and mo working

I just caught up to the live game. Why is Ben getting so much playing time???? It's like this every game. He's even more of a defensive liability than Goode was!
The definition of insanity fits well here. I vote for a new nickname...

IF Ben is a zero, whats the rotation? It’s a roster construction error. Brad seems to think we need Ben to become at least a semblance of what we thought he was going to be on order for the other pieces to do what they were recruited to do. He might be right.

Booth hasn’t shown anything in limited playing time. We need a 3rd big behind Morez and Ivisic.

I think you can go small and play Tre at the 4 or big with Morez at the 4. It’s not ideal either way, but I trust either of those guys infinitely on any 4 defensively than I do Ben right now. Even with Morez and Tomi you have 4 guys on the floor who can shoot threes.

If we lose Morez because of this Ben playing time insanity, I’m cancelling my donations next year.

ARE YOU LISTENING JDUBS??!!

Morez is fun to watch, but he has a little bit of young Kofi in him where he doesn't finish strong at the basket. Hopefully that will improve with time.

Our coach is stubborn. Ben is part of our team but should be coming off the bench with limited time. I'm watching him on Defense and they are taking him apart. Coach, figure it out....
