Former Missouri head coach Quin Snyder is out of the limelight, but happy living another basketball dream. There is a great story on his year coaching the Austin Toreros in the D League.
I coached against him in his last year at Missouri. After the game he looked like death warmed over. I am happy he has found his way back to the game. He is not truly how the media portrayed him. I always found him to be very outgoing and sincere. Then again the media decides how they view someone and then they run with it. Sometimes it’s fair and sometimes not. In this case it was not fair how he was treated at Missouri.
The media always liked to talk about how he brought the program down at Missouri and the probation. They seemed to forget the scandals under previous head coach, Norm Stewart. And they don’t seem to be lighting the world on fire with their new head coach.
