Good news, everyone! I mean, probably. It’s probably good news. Missouri is hiring Cuonzo Martin, who’ll be returning to the SEC after a brief foray at Cal. Mizzou could potentially have been a competitor with NC State for a number of candidates, including Gregg Marshall (still not happening) and Kevin Keatts.
Martin is getting a seven-year deal worth about $21 million from Missouri, per ESPN. Good for them, that may all work out well for the Tigers, but it’s also a bit of a relief to have them out of the way. Mizzou is a good job, with good facilities and proximity to St.
