The potential return of Michael Porter Jr. to the Missouri basketball team is good news everywhere, but at least one group of observers would withhold judgment until they see Porter and Tigers in action.
Officially, it’s known as the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee. You know the group this time of the year as the selection committee for the NCAA Tournament. In less than two weeks, they’ll meet to begin the process of choosing the at-large teams and seed the 68-team men’s bracket.
Missouri, if Porter, reportedly cleared to play after undergoing back surgery in November, returns and plays, presents a unique case.
