Typically depends upon your age. (warning: generalization ahead)

If you started following MU in the 60s or 70s then MU has always been a football school.

If you started following MU in the 80s or 90s then MU has always been a basketball school.

If you started following MU in the 00s or 10s then MU is a football school.

Probably pretty fair assessment in a general sense.

My question would be, if I had 4 tickets to give away for free but you had to choose between going to Bama football game at Mizzou or Kentucky basketball game at Mizzou, which set of 4 tickets would you take?

I quit think of us as a basketball school about 3 years ago. The move to the SEC has facilitated that. While I would like to see the basketball team succeed, I'm not nearly as focused on it.

This basketball season has gotten a shoulder shrug from me, if the football team performed on that level I'd be out on the ledge.
