The 2010–11 Missouri Tigers men's basketball team represented the University of Missouri in the 2010-11 NCAA Division I men's basketball season . Their head coach was Mike Anderson , who was in his 5th year at Missouri. The team played its home games at Mizzou Arena in Columbia , Missouri and they are members of the Big 12 Conference . They finished the season 23–11, 8–8 in Big 12 play and lost in the quarterfinals of the 2011 Big 12 men's basketball tournament to Texas A&M . They received an at-large bid in the 2011 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament where they lost in the second round to Cincinnati .
In March, rumors began to swirl that Anderson would pursue a job after the season at the University of Arkansas , where he spent 17 years as an assistant coach to Nolan Richardson . Anderson quickly dismissed the talk, telling Columbia Tribune beat writer Steve Walentik he planned to coach at Missouri "for a long time, retire here."
