[QUOTE="Poe's Law, post: 1391224, member: 328210"] Disagree on your assesment of a quick hook. I'm assuming you never watched a game coached by Weber or Groce for the sake of comparison. As far as having DW in bounding the ball, to that point he graded out as having one of the higher basketball IQ's of anybody on the roster. Not sure I fault him there simply because DW was a true freshman. Not like he had a stable of upperclassmen to go to. Also pulling freshman in high leverage situations stunts development and would have meant even less playing time for Mark Smith. Sorry to see Mark leave. I think his best days are ahead of him. I hope he makes a boatload of money playing in the pros some day and that his time at Mizzou is absolute disaster (I understand the two are somewhat incompatible). If nothing else he added some spice to the boarder war which is a good thing. So thanks for the memories and hope 2017 is his only boarder war win. [/QUOTE]
