I have seen reports on donor bases in the SEC. Mizzou is way behind most of the schools in the top of the conference.

I have seen the reports on SEC revenue Mizzou is also way behind.

Personally I don’t believe Mizzou can really compete. And that we should accept that the revenue sports are going to be inconsistent. Occasionally we will get the year where everything lines up and Mizzou makes a run. Most year you just want to be top half of the conference and try making a run in the NCAA tournament.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

Rockmnation on the SEC rosters - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 10:21:57

Imagine a world where we could return to the bubble - the808bass MU - 7/18 17:40:53

Quick glance, but it sure seems every other team got... - Lerxst MU

coaches that consistently can recruit, evaluate, develop, - tigertix MU - 7/18 09:50:22

It will take the new guys a year to accustom to D1 SEC play - raskolnikov MU - 7/17 18:11:37

Almost every team returns more, recruited more talent and - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 12:01:52

I doubt we continue to outperform the budget - zoomer 99 - 7/17 12:07:33

"pay Cuonzo $10 million per year and he'll work harder" (nm) - zounami MU - 7/17 15:16:54

That’s the wrong thing to do (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 15:19:45

what will it take to get CM to work as hard as Drink?... - zounami MU - 7/17 15:22:54

You keep saying he’s not working hard without proof (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 15:29:04

There's quite a bit of evidence of it actually, including... - zounami MU - 7/17 15:42:29

You could also read what the players are saying - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 15:46:15

So it's no that he doesn't work hard he just works hard on - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 16:08:01

Given the choice of playing at UNC or Mizzou - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 20:05:49

Would you choose Mizzou over Notre Dame or Texas in FB?... - zounami MU - 7/17 23:59:07

He’s mostly losing those battles as well. - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/18 08:54:59

Perhaps the best side-effect of Drink's excellent recruiting - zounami MU - 7/17 16:36:10

Drink still finished 10th in the SEC last season - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 20:07:42

7th per Rivals, and top 20 nationally... our highest ranked - zounami MU - 7/17 23:57:50

So you have different standards for football than basketball - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/18 08:56:38

So, a recruit who chose *another coach* made a nice comment - zounami MU - 7/17 15:59:29

He was asked who put in the most work - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 16:03:48

BTW, when recruits reject CM, then say nice things afterward - zounami MU - 7/17 16:12:47

He’s trying to get guys - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 16:28:24

"He's trying to get guys" but he ALWAYS fails... why? (nm) - zounami MU - 7/17 16:41:43

Going head to head with blue bloods? Yes he does - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 20:02:13

EVERY... SINGLE... TIME (nm) - zounami MU - 7/17 23:57:18

The problem is that NONE of the recruits with historically - zounami MU - 7/17 16:06:32

I answered about Drink in this thread already - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 16:26:33

Where?... - zounami MU - 7/17 16:41:15

Drink is still losing most of his recruiting battles. - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 20:09:19

He's winning enough battles to set all-time records, on pace - zounami MU - 7/17 23:56:33

He's doing great - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/18 10:04:44

While I don't necessarily agree with Zou CMs last four - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 15:37:26

He's not incompetent at recruiting. He proved that at Tenn & - zounami MU - 7/17 16:03:39

what will it take to get CM off his couch and back onto - zounami MU - 7/17 15:20:36

"...and some day, he might even win an NCAA tourney game" (nm) - zounami MU - 7/17 15:18:50

CM is still paid in the top half of the conference. I guess - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 12:13:51

No he’s not (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 12:18:50

According to this he was #7 in the SEC this season, that - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 12:51:19

correct (nm) - zounami MU - 7/17 15:13:13

Some of those behind him have been given raises - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 13:00:56

but he was top half until those recent raises to better HCs - zounami MU - 7/17 15:13:00

Again, who is to blame if your budget is that low? - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 13:12:04

Was the money there to really compete in the SEC? - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 13:19:16

You also believe CM is doing a good job. You constantly - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 14:09:17

Yes based on the investment by the AD - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 14:11:29

Again, then why is Drink quickly succeeding under these - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 14:16:11

The AD is investing in football right now - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 15:01:37

That has always been the case for Mizzou. Norm set the - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 15:20:58

After reading that it sounds like UGA will likely finish in - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 11:15:42

RE: After reading that it sounds like UGA will likely finish in - Mizzhope MU - 7/17 12:05:20

Did they strikeout on the recruiting class? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 12:20:08

RE: Did they strikeout on the recruiting class? (nm) - Mizzhope MU - 7/17 14:00:02

Its been almost 30 years since mizzou - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 14:09:10

RE: Its been almost 30 years since mizzou - Mizzhope MU - 7/17 14:53:25

Actually the argument is the opposite - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 15:03:12

Norm, MA and Haith all had 30 win seasons. Norm, Quin and - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 15:26:09

When is the last time Mizzou had back to back - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 15:30:55

To have back-to-back 25 win seasons you must first have - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 15:42:52

That’s what Mizzou needs to build towards - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 15:47:54

Do you ever read what you type? Your argument for keeping - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 16:27:08

No my argument is fix the issues - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 16:30:28

He recruited five players and their average ranking is 200+ - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 13:01:23

Auburn has Smith. He’s a top 10 recruit - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/17 13:14:29

You are right it was Miss St that had the recruit rated 105 - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 14:12:24

Quick return to bubble contention. - Newcatbirdseat MU - 7/17 11:32:57

If everything goes just right we might just possibly be - DHighlander NWMSU - 7/17 11:59:38
