CRITICAL: Dennis Gates DESPERATELY Needs A Tournament Win In 2027

Fair or not, Dennis Gates' record in March is going to linger until he changes the narrative. Missouri has NEVER been good enough defensively under Gates, but TWO elite offensive seasons is nothing to dismiss. Bottom line, zero chance Gates is getting fired this offseason. This will be Tim Fuller's first shot; will Bill Laurie help in a BIG way? Ben McCollum making the Sweet 16 didn't help many Mizzou fans' state of mind.
