They claim it's impossible to recruit here, even though our FB coach is landing 4-stars left and right.
They claim the fan base is "small and apathetic" as if the SEC would have been interested if that were true.
They think our AD is poor, even though our budget is now Top 25 in the nation ahead of schools like Clemson & Oregon — with the new $300M SEC deal factored in.
They claim we can't attract top coaches — that Kim was the only person who would take the job in 2014... despite a Final Four coach publicly stating his strong interest in the job.
They pretend we haven't reached 2 (and should've been 3) Elite 8's in the past 20 years, with multiple top 10 recruiting classes. We won the Big 12 championship on our way out in 2012... John Calipari (another Final Four coach we could've hired at one point, but didn't) raved about what a fantastic addition we were to the SEC's BB profile (not Texas A&M, but Mizzou specifically).
So, I couldn't agree more with the OP.
