The BOC should fire Sterk

[mizzoufan90]

Clearly Gabe, Dave and others are getting the info straight from a BOC member or someone directly tied to them. All this news dropped at once.

If the BOC won’t let Mizzou hire Anderson, they should fire him immediately. If you won’t let the AD do their job, then stop wasting money and go hire a new AD.

Mizzou BOC looks like an absolute joke right now.

Are you serious?

I agree and honestly never thought that'd be the case

You have no idea how this works. If the AD is undercut by the BOC, then every single coach in America will turn us down. Did you not read a single thing about Odom and Sterk? No coach will accept an offer when the BOC actively fought said hire.

 

[MIZDSP]

You have to fire the AD. It’s the only recourse now.

How about fire Sterk, name an interim HC, find an AD who knows his @$$ from a hole in the ground a proceed. Yeah, may set the football program back a year, but at this point, that appears to be a BEST CASE scenario with the way things are going..

Never should have fired Odom in the first place. Be careful what you wish for.

I actually agree because the coach isn't going to have any clue who he is working with.

 

[metal4mizzou]

Bring back Odom with Pat Ivey.

I think this is a definite possibility right now.

Whoever this is at the BOC is doing a massive disservice to Mizzou athletics. It might work short-term but undercutting leadership is EXACTLY how we got 2015 protests.

Sundvold with resign as a BOC member to take over as interim AD. He’ll lead the search for a new head football coach. And they’ll have to give the new guy a hell of a buyout/guaranteed contract because he’ll get a new boss that didn’t hire him in due time.

Sundvold's term is up on January 1st so he may be angling for such a role.

I think a period of several years has to pass before a BOC member can become an MU employee.

 

[Otis Blake]

The only thing worse than firing him in the middle of the search is cutting his balls off and NOT firing him - which appears to be our plan.

Uh, speaking as someone who was VERY close to everything that happened in 2015, you’re wrong and need to stop while the hole your digging yourself isn’t too deep.

You have zero credibility on this board. Go back to the tattoo parlor.

 

[RenderMan]

The BoC just neutered Sterk. It will be harder now to hire a coach. Even if Sterk is fired, who would want the AD job knowing what the BoC did to Sterk.

This is an epic **** up.

 

[VeryStableGenius]

It really does seem this is a possibility. Maybe our best option at this point. Unbelievable.

 

[dn3524]

until it was leaked. now it helps to undermine everything

No heroes here

I am p*ssed at Sterk

I am p*ssed at the BOC

I am p*ssed at the leaker

 

[spruce1]

And we were laughing at Tennessee...

exactly. Once this becomes public it only works to undermine everything.

 

[Ferg15]

This is what I feared would happen when they fired Odom!!! Fire a guy that went .500 in 4 years to hire a guy that will likely do worse. Way to F$&k this up Jim!

 

[VeryStableGenius]

WHERE IS THE WHISTLEBLOWER?

 

[BiggsUofM]

And we were laughing at Tennessee...

My thoughts exactly, we are going right down the TN hire. You guys think we could fire Sterk and bring back Odom? Seriously though, this is now STUPID.

 

[mackelroy]

Look, the BOC May seem like “heroes” to fans who hate that list. But what they’ve done here is actually harmful. And unfortunately, it’s not unfamiliar territory for Missouri. I want people to have Missouri’s best interests above personal interests.

We need to fire the members on the BOC that met with Sterk and leaked this. They are disgrace and unworthy of holding the position.

If the HC is fired by the AD because of personality conflicts, that too will deter other coaches from coming here! Everyone has to answer to someone, but it needs to be in the line of....”what can I do to help you, and our university?”

I agree. Let him hire who he wants to hire or fire him.

 

[tigeree]

No single person to blame here, plenty to go around.

From Odom to Sterk to whoever just neutered him with the leak. Each party working against the other to form a perfect storm of ineptitude.

Couldn’t have said it better. The person responsible is not worthy of the role they play at Mizzou.
It’s disgracef behavior.
