Kenny Boynton SG Florida- 15.5pts. 2.7ast. Boynton hasn’t quite lived up to the immense hype that surrounded him entering college. He makes some poor decisions...
Pressey and Dixon allow Mizzou to dream
COLUMBIA, Mo. There's high praise tossed in Mizzou Arena these days, because the time is never too early to dream. The calendar reads October, but Missouri's glare is turned to what can be achieved in March, in part because guards Phil Pressey and Michael Dixon will grip the wheel of a college basketball Bentley.
