Not to get too cheesy by quoting the legendary Matthew McConaughey, but seriously, Missouri State Bears’ basketball fans have to be thinking to themselves, “alright, alright, alright.”
The Missouri State men’s basketball team landed another massive recruit a week ago as former No. 1 player in Missouri, Jared Ridder, announced he intended to leave Xavier University to transfer home and play for MSU.
And for the first time in two seasons, head coach Paul Lusk has room to breathe on the hot seat.
During his tenure at MSU, Lusk has led the Bears to a deflating 88-106 record and despite landing impressive recruits Alize Johnson and Dequon Miller, has yet to finish top three in the Valley.
