If he beats UGA, this guy is gonna end up on some coaching lists. Especially when you combine recruiting and the fact that Mizzou returns alot of offensive talent in 2024.

He could find himself being considered for UCLA, Michigan,
Miami or North Carolina in 2025.

Guys please don't misunderstand. I'm not saying he's leaving. I'm just saying he will go from being a Harry Potter joke to on everyone's coaching wish list including the big Boys in a few years.

Hes not leaving. We can pay as much as anyone. $EC $EC. Also win 7 to 9 games a year here and you'll have a lifetime job.

He’d be foolish to jump to an ACC school, but I do agree he’s the type to jump to a bigger program if they can outpay us. But there will probably only be 2-3 openings most years that could actually outpay + afford his buyout, so if he gets one of those that means we’re coming off an incredible season

I have always thought he was a fun guy rather than goofy. He learns and develops as a coach to. I thought we had the right man for the job when he introduced Kirby Moore in a presser last January. At least he has shown Missouri can be a gold mine of talent and a coach can build a talented winning team here.

The way he recruits here, and the transfers he gets - wow. I can remember when Nebraska and Iowa among others took the bulk of St Louis recruits.

It is the nature of college football that someone will back up a truck filled with money to lure him away. They may be doing it to our players now as well.

recruiting isn't about coaches anymore. it is just the overall money and benefits (including long-term career.)
the recruiting we are doing now is because we have enough money in Missouri, and only 1 major school, to afford 4 and 5 stars. It will only get better if we return to filling up the stadium and generating more revenue. Insert any coach who isn't a jerk or a loser into the formula and it won't change .

The media and fans from other fan bases like Drink more than a lot Mizzou fans.

He is goofy looking and says goofy things, but he knows how to work the media.

I’ve always thought he had the potential to be a good coach, but I didn’t/don’t know if it would be at Missouri.

Why would he leave Mizzou for UNC or UCLA?

Jobs like Michigan, USC, Ohio State, Alabama, Penn State are the ones we’d need to watch out for
