... they are better (and more fun to watch) than the 2014 team. 2007 / 2013 are the best in recent memory for sure, but this team should end up one win away from that level. Atmosphere is great, sell out crowds have been awesome.
I know a lot of people are not huge fans of Drink but I like the hire because he is more of a CEO which is what is needed today. Don't get me wrong, he's not perfect, but he is good at booster support, understands NIL landscape, facility upgrades, recruiting at a high level building a good coaching staff around him (Baker and Moore are top notch hires). He can get Mizzou back to their ceiling...
Throw in Gates on basketball with a top 5 class as well and it's a great time to be a Mizzou fan. MIZ...

Just now on ESPNU he's talking about "rusty truck guys". Wonderful imagery.

Drink is still a younger guy trying to figure it out and doing a great job.
I hope he ends up trending towards an old ball coach persona over time.
The key now will be holding on to the coordinators. Drink's staff will get raided in the offseason.

Don’t forget building team chemistry. He held onto so many players in the portal or graduation. It is clear to see this team is very close.

It is great to finally see Drink make this program better than when he started. I'm frankly a bit shocked at the jump from last year to this year but not because of our talent levels. We have always had enough talent.
The coaching still has tons of room for improvement, too. Drink has to work a bit more on running a disciplined program.

I think we're safe with Moore because of the potential on offense with returning players. Not saying we're not safe with Baker but its gonna be a large turnover
