Just a heads up for those interested:

Still listed on the roster. All the others who entered the portal have been removed.

What does it mean

He's the perfect guy for this NIL era?

The complaints against him are he hasn't gotten a QB, I get it.

But look at the talent he brought in last year via the transfer portal, look at the guys he's bringing in this year, look at how many starters are staying at Mizzou while other teams are having mass exoduses, look at the high school recruiting.

He's a .500 coach through 3 years, Rome wasn't built in a day.

If this roster is loaded with 4-5 star high school and transfer talent, it will translate into wins once the foundation is set.

"He can't develop QBs".

Cook looked much better as the season went on, is that not development?

"Baker gets all the credit for the defense".

So Drink doesn't recruit players on defense? He doesn't create the culture and foster the relationships that keep playmakers at Mizzou?

Drink appears to me to be a great CEO and recruiter, exactly what you want in this era of college football.

Does he still need to win 8 games next year? Absolutely, but this is a program trending up, regardless of what the record says.

I rewatched the game. Mainly wanted to see exactly what they ran on us so successfully. But that wasn’t it (Other than a few feeds deep inside). What stood out was, WOW, our defense was horrible. East was bad, Kobe was awful, Hoge was unspeakably bad. Good news is defense can be learned, I suppose.

I didn’t know he is an all state(or pretty close) wrestler.

I always think any football player, especially lineman, should wrestle. It is good to teach how to be physical and use your hands and leverage.

Probably not super interesting but I thought it was.

Anyone heard anything on where Lovett is going to land? Hoping it's not someone we have to play.

South Carolina RB Marshawn Lloyd. 573 yards and 9 TD this year

Not saying it's true, but did have a source tell me about a month ago they think he's as good as Ty'Ron Hopper

Was told the visit was excellent. Drinkwitz, Baker, Luper and Hogue will visit him tomorrow. Sounds like commit watch might be warranted. To refresh your memory he's the transfer DB from Florida

Below is a quote from an article on TOS:

Hornsby said he’s heard from Florida, Missouri, Baylor, Texas State, Arkansas State, Florida Atlantic and Grambling State, among others. Nebraska has also entered the mix in recent days with Matt Rhule having a prior relationship with Hornsby dating back to his time as Baylor’s head coach.

And while Hornsby said he is yet to set up visits, Tillman said Nebraska, Missouri and Texas State have made strong pushes for Hornsby.

Sounds like former Mizzou DB John Gibson passed away. Can’t find details but Jimmie Hunt posted about it on FB. RIP

Not a whole lot of info available but he was taken by ambulance to the hospital this morning, with an interim coach already named.

got his first NBA minutes last night, got 2 points.

Per his Instagram.

I’ve got a signed copy for the person who best makes his or her case on why he or she deserves a book. Fire away!

And for those in search of a holiday gift for the Mizzou fan in your life, get those orders in now.

Here’s an excerpt from the book, from Joe Posnanski, who was kind enough to write the foreword:

But Kansas-Missouri is a different rivalry because no other traces back to such an ugly history, to Bleeding Kansas and John Brown and Osceola and Quantrill’s Raiders. It’s a different rivalry because the states themselves are so different — with Missouri a mix of rural and urban and long viewed as a purple swing state, while Kansas is flat, sparse, right in the middle and one of the reddest of red states in the Union. It’s a different rivalry because Kansans and Missourians are still divided by a street named “State Line” and they still look across that line at one another with doubt and distrust.

So it’s a rivalry with feeling … and every year, no matter how bad the teams were (and they were often bad), there was something emotional and fervid when the Tigers and the Jayhawks played. Year after year, those of us around Missouri and Kansas often wondered what would happen if their game ever actually meant anything. In 2007, we found out.

I know this news will come as a shock to no one, but it would certainly mean some major changes to the 2023 schedule.

Does this guy have a visit set up with us?

I saw in a thread someone mention it but it wasn’t a moderator I don’t think and now I can’t find anything.
