COLUMBIA - The Missouri coaching staff has a motto when it comes to shooting. "Good shot, great shot."

The idea behind the phrase is easy to understand. Players should always be looking for a better shot whenever possible.

While the idea is one thing, execution may be another.

Junior guard Earnest Ross is continuing to work on finding his shot as the Tigers are in the midst of a nine-day break between games.
