Alden was pretty aggressive with LS.
Smith takes Mizzou to first bowls since 1983 in 1997 and 1998. In 1999, Alden's first year at Mizzou, if remember correctly, Smith goes 4-7 in a season that could have been different had Farmer not gone down so gruesomely against Iowa St.
In the offseason, Alden forces Smith to replace his OC from a triple option look to a bizarre circus offense under Bill Cubit. Smith responds with 3-8 and gets canned.
Forcing an offense change on a successful coach after one bad season was a pretty bold move, in my opinion.
