Quote of the day
“We can’t have those fouls 95 feet away from the basket, but it counts against us whether it’s putting them on the line for the double bonus or just the bonus, and gets them an opportunity to be more aggressive than our half-court defense, and we don’t want to put ourselves in that situation.”
- Dennis Gates on what Mizzou needs to do in order to conquer Arkansas on Wednesday.
