Eye on the Tigers podcast: Preparing for life without Michael Porter Jr.




Eye on the Tigers show

Summary: It's time to tackle the what-ifs. Michael Porter Jr., the most celebrated Mizzou basketball recruit in program history, is expected to miss the rest of the season after his back surgery. What if he tried a different treatment plan? What if he attempted to come back after surgery? What if he returned as a sophomore? In this week's edition of the 'Eye on the Tigers' podcast, Post-Dispatch Mizzou beat writer Dave Matter and sports columnist Ben Frederickson discuss these theories, and attempt to put the team Porter leaves behind in the proper perspective moving forward. Also, the two preview the Mizzou football team's regular-season finale at Arkansas and look forward to the biggest questions for coach Barry Odom in 2018.
