re: 2015 Football Recruiting Thread *Offer/Commit List and Videos on 1st Page*

"things you would say if you were a beaker for a hundred Alec?"


basically we just need to round out this class is all, with a 4 star WR, and a few 4-5 star defensive players, this becomes the best recruiting class ever (on paper), and it still could happen.

Does anyone know if the baseball Tigers have been recruiting Marquise Doherty? It might be a tough sell, given their play last year, and the fact that Coach Jamison's contract wasn't extended, but I know playing both sports is important to him.

---

I truly haven't heard that we have recruited him for baseball. Historically speaking, TJ has recruited the STL area more than the KC area, and I think that's to Mizzou's detriment. I know that the Harrison kid (think that was his name) had been recruited to play both by Nebraska and had committed to going there before actually opting to sign professionally. Interestingly, 247 shows Doherty as a Nebraska lean as well. Wonder if they've recruited him for both sports.

On a side note Mick...what do you think it takes for TJ to get an extension? I suspect nothing will happen until after the season and it will depend on how the team does, so what kind of season will it take for him to be extended?

No one predetermined Mizzou to win the east last year. If things were predetermined UGA or UF or UT would have won it. Not upstarts MU or SC.

30's - You didn't even have to suffer through the 80's like us old shites. By the time you were a teen it would have been mid to late 90's, just on the cusp of Mizzou turning things around. For your 20's and 30's, Mizzou has been nothing but a solid program. Learn to just enjoy it my friend. It's just a game at the end of the day.

And I suppose you directed this to me because I disagreed that CFB is the equivalent to the WWE? Or maybe because I said that the Mizzou football program is in such a better place than it was in the 80's?

Very well my friend.

no they did not, I don't even know how to take that, it sounds like sarcasm but makes no sense in that context either, really.

Sounds like he may not even be old enough to remember the 5th down, either way, after last year, assuming there was no "conspiracy" to prevent us from winning in Atlanta, we don't have that much to complain about. I would say the grassy nole of the Rock M is a bit far from the Ga Dome wouldn't you? We lost that game because we ran into a good team and our defense wasn't up to snuff, both the play and the coaching in my view. I know some don't like to hear that opinion, but honestly, I don't give a ratsass if you want to hear it or not.

Also it's not like the new rule changes affected only us or prevented us from having a great season.

Sounds like our friend needs to step back, chillax, and at all cost, avoid the silly SECrant board for a time, the predictions of an impending Mizzou doom season there are almost entirely the uniformed opinion of the average tunnel visioned SEC homer.

I think it's wise to respect the fact that different fans of the same teams will have varied and sometimes radically differing view points. Seeing those other view points is one of the things that makes life and sports interesting and prevents staleness and the laziness factor of "group think" from setting in. The day this place becomes a homogenized, all the same view, kool aid board, I have no more use for it. As long as we are all for Mizzou that's really all that matters, beyond that, we can have a myriad of opinions to offer, and with out it, there won't be anything to set this place apart or make it special from any fan board on the web.

If that makes me a "bad fan" who should "GTFO" then fine, that's exactly what I will do if that's what everyone wants. I just don't have any interest in such narrow minded views and opinions in people, and there are other fan boards that are already in that kind of lock step agreement and single minded attitude, if that's what I wanted I or anyone else, we could go to Rivals or tigerboard to get it.

Ok well that's my view of it, hope it doesn't offend anyone, but if it does, tough, people who are too easily offended and think they have some god given right not to be need to get a clue..

Irving Cistercian ATH Dare Odeyingbo committed to #Vandy last night. Will likely play LB or DE. LINK ]

Was hoping we'd get this kid at LB. Oh well. Next.

Bummer! I too thought he might swing our way although I can never fault a 3 star kid from taking a free education from Vandy. He'll never play in the national championship or the NFL but he's going to get a great education.

As far as being down on Mizzou. We are, arguably, the best we've ever been. We were a quarter away from the National Championship! I remember going to games in the eighties just to freeze and watch Oklahoma punch us in the mouth for 3 quarters. No one knew what happened in the 4th because everyone had left.
Think about the fact that we remember the 5th down play not because it kept us out of the national championship but because it could have kept Colorado out. We wouldn't even have finished at .500 if we won.
That's how bad it was.
Enjoy the glory days now. We're not far off from our best recruiting class ever.
Great time to be a Tiger!

Well said Jagd.

New offer to LA 3* S Hunter Dale
LINK

He had committed to Nebraska in July but decommitted two days later. No idea what that's about but He has 22 solid offers.

Thanks again Paulie. Here's some HUDL highlights for Hunter.

We must not be feeling too confident on Anree Saint-Armor.

I don't think it says anything about the confidence in any player committing or not. We have a 4* QB who is committed and we still offer other QB's. It's all about covering your bases and offering guys who deserve it. We have no defensive commits for the 2015 class, so to not offer someone because you think theres a chance you may get someone else to commit is ludicrous. You dont wait on teenagers like that.
