Missouri’s home court gets an update as the men’s basketball program looks to improve on a solid season last year. The Tigers went 16-10 and earned a No. 9 seed in the NCAA Tournament, ultimately losing to Oklahoma in the first round.
The Tigers will be looking for the first second consecutive March Madness appearance for the first time since they went to five straight between 2008-09 and 2012-13.
Missouri has made the Big Dance three times since moving to the SEC before the 2012-13 season.
Cuonzo Martin will be entering his fifth year as head coach of the Tigers. He has an overall record of 66-56.
Missouri’s roster will look much different in 2021-22, as the Tigers have brought in numerous transfers this offseason. Martin also signed five true freshman in the 2021 recruiting class. The class ranks No. 44 nationally and No. 10 in the SEC, per 247Sports Composite rankings.
Here’s some of the reaction to the new court:
