advantage of a poorly written contract and the principal owner retiring. It was a business decision that netted him billions. One might think he has some loyalty to Mizzou.

So MU boosters were able to outbid OU and UGA for WN - mu-ku 2009 MU - 8/14 10:12:20

Imagine how Drink could recruit if he won games - ChinaTiger KC - 8/14 11:06:33

it's pretty simple - o'lineydisciple MU - 8/14 12:26:28

Franklin was better than Blaine and probably a more - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/14 12:34:48

no i'm sorry we hate him because he refused to take a - phrejd MU - 8/14 12:48:53

Well played(nm) - DevilsAdvocate KC - 8/14 13:50:04

agree(nm) - SabertoothTiger MU - 8/14 12:44:35

Agreed (nm) - SatoriTiger JC - 8/14 12:42:08

This year will tell. He is now playing with his own - Erwin Fletcher STL - 8/14 11:51:43

He's been playing with his own players in previous - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/14 12:08:25

nah, he was gifted several pros from Odom(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 12:25:40

With the transfer portal, it shouldn't have taken him this - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/14 11:57:10

he is allowed to make some mistakes - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 12:23:04

The entire season hinges on who he makes qb starter - mu-ku 2009 MU - 8/14 12:03:33

I think the biggest disparity I've seen is Scott Frost - Lt. J. Dangle MU - 8/14 11:46:49

What a scam - Genco98 MU - 8/14 11:55:27

Good example (nm) - ChinaTiger KC - 8/14 11:52:59

RE: Imagine how Drink could recruit if he won games - cybertyger MU - 8/14 11:43:05

We are not the worst fans in the SEC. You have no clue. - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/14 11:59:44

We were worse in Drink year 2/3 than year 1 - ChinaTiger KC - 8/14 11:51:42

Drink has one above-average SEC class - zoomer 99 - 8/14 11:32:56

yeah, those recruits should have made an impact - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 11:12:19

You doing the manic white knight thing again? (nm) - ChinaTiger KC - 8/14 11:18:25

all i know is if these '24 recruits don't win this year - phrejd MU - 8/14 11:19:51

But they'll just be freshman/rs freshman/sophomores - ChinaTiger KC - 8/14 11:22:11

no, I think we'll have a pretty good idea in a few months - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 11:35:01

agreed... we need to see some progress this year (nm) - zounami MU - 8/14 15:30:02

Drink was the better coach in most of his losses last year. - zounami MU - 8/14 11:08:52

Except for how he coached that punt block against UK - Genco98 MU - 8/14 11:51:43

multiple game-losing flukes that could only happen to Mizzou - zounami MU - 8/14 15:29:25

Talent and depth, huh? Are we still blaming Barry for - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/14 11:31:23

"NIL" and the portal happened (nm) - zounami MU - 8/14 15:27:24

I agree with you. At this point, it's his responsibility to - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/14 11:37:03

now, that's quite subjective(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 11:15:46

He hasn't chosen us yet(nm) - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/14 10:44:01

based on our recent BB recruiting, we've definitely had... - zounami MU - 8/14 10:15:00

Bball has a much better coach (nm) - Columbian Gold MU - 8/14 10:47:49

Much better? Hard to say and it's a LOT easier to churn - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/14 11:34:29

it's looking like that, but time will tell - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 11:01:03

that would be great, if it turns out to be true (nm) - zounami MU - 8/14 10:54:05

so you're starting to understand that Mizzou's war chest - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 10:35:39

maybe, but my concern has always been the arms race... - zounami MU - 8/14 10:44:13

so it would be like the last 30 years?(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 11:01:51

IDK... can we build the kind of rosters we had in '07 & '13 - zounami MU - 8/14 11:05:51

those rosters weren't built on 4 and 5 star recruits - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 11:10:33

They were built on a system that *punished* transfers... - zounami MU - 8/14 11:16:28

I'm not sure what that has to do with anything I posted - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/14 12:21:17

The disadvantage is greater now than it was over the last 30 - zounami MU - 8/14 15:14:48

Messiah complex - MoArk MU - 8/14 10:51:50

what? (nm) - zounami MU - 8/14 10:54:26

Yeah, may just have to accept 6-6 and 7-5 seasons - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/14 10:46:31

not necessarily... top-level talent is distributed more - zounami MU - 8/14 10:53:20

Should and agree with your last line(nm) - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/14 11:32:46

I heard it was The Olde Un - Blitzkrieg OU - 8/14 10:22:27

Bitter ? Already ? - Nohawks KC - 8/14 11:26:47

Not bitter - Blitzkrieg OU - 8/14 11:53:21

as they say in the investment industry - lqf2b8 KC - 8/14 13:30:05

Do you see any irony - Nohawks KC - 8/14 12:41:13

The Kroenkes you think?? Nm - mu-ku 2009 MU - 8/14 10:15:46

If they got behind us we could win the NC.......nm - HDTiger MU - 8/14 10:18:45

true but based on the stl situation, i'm not sure how - TigerA MU - 8/14 10:27:35

He had no ties (that I know of) to St. Louis. He took... - winslow MU - 8/14 11:33:56

yes, he screwed over an entire city to enrich himself... - zounami MU - 8/14 15:24:27

it's not the Kroenkes... they wouldn't do it anonymously (nm) - zounami MU - 8/14 10:32:36

correct (nm) - zounami MU - 8/14 10:26:02

the Gyros(nm) - TigerA MU - 8/14 10:17:25

Also interesting theory from the OU board - mu-ku 2009 MU - 8/14 10:14:19

Haha. Sure. What a bunch of idiots. (nm) - Lerxst MU

- 8/14 10:55:45

That’s a dumb theory. (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 8/14 10:40:56
