Mizzou is entering Year 4 of Dennis Gates’ tenure in charge of the program on the back of a 22-12 campaign that saw the Tigers return to the NCAA Tournament. But, Missouri fell at the first hurdle in the Big Dance, dropping its Round of 64 bout with Drake in Wichita.
The Tigers have five new transfers on the roster this season and added two high school freshmen in this cycle.
But the bulk of the MU team is built around a key group of returners, with second-team All-SEC selection Mark Mitchell and USA Today preseason Defensive Player of the Year Anthony Robinson II headlining the lineup.
MU beat Kansas State 100-91 in an exhibition game on Friday, Oct. 24, at Mizzou Arena.
