Off Season Thoughts:
Clearly the season was one for the ages. Top 10 finish, Cotton Bowl win over a blue blood, 11 wins. Went toe to toe on the road with the #1 ranked team in the country on national TV. The caliber of recruits listing Mizzou on the final list of choices is unprecedented. Looks like Drink has figured out the NIL game. It's a great time to be a Tiger fan!
As a life long Mizzou fan I have very mixed emotions as to what I should expect moving forward. I'm hoping for the following:
What do you guys think is the more realistic expectation? why?

As a life long Mizzou fan I have very mixed emotions as to what I should expect moving forward. I'm hoping for the following:
- consistent top 10-20 recruiting classes
- consistent top 10 portal moves every year
- Mizzou grabs 80-90% of the in state kids they want each year (STL kids wanting to stay home)
- 8 - 10 wins being a realistic expectation each season
- the most unimaginable catastrophic event will fall upon us and we'll shift back to a middle of the pack or worse program.
- more rogue tutoring incidents
- another Ricky Paulding fiasco etc.....
What do you guys think is the more realistic expectation? why?
