In 10 years running this site, I’ve developed the reputation of a sunshine pumper, but really, all I’ve tried to deliver is perspective. Short-term perspective blinds us from what is actually good in the long-term. But there’s no sunshine pumping here. There was no fight, there was no tactical vision, there was minimal effort. It’s hard to imagine a team, or a coach, coming back from that.

Purdue didn’t even have to shift into second gear to build a lead. The Boilermakers dominated in trenches (where they hadn’t yet proven they were capable of dominating) and needed only basic offensive concepts — things Mizzou had to have seen on film — to move the ball at will. Missouri had no answer to things it had to have known was coming.

Simply put, Missouri mailed it in. There is nothing more damning than that.

This was pathetic, and a lot of well-paid coaches have to be embarrassed for letting this performance happen on their watch. They had no control over what their team did, and when you hit a low this low, there’s really no reason to think you’re going to rebound.

There's no leadership on the field that's for sure. I've yet to see a player or hell even a coach do anything that I would even call as a shred of leadership. They look like guys doing a 9-5 job, wake up, show up, do the minimum, and go home.

You can't return 15 of 22 starters and go fricking backwards. That's 100% coaching and leadership.

Guess what, we return 15 of 22 again next year.

He nails it. No excuses. No blame someone else BS.


3 games in and the team has quit.

I still trust in Sterk. I still think MIZZOU can be attractive to a proven coach.

The talent level here is good enough to go 5-7/7-5 with the right staff.

So I believe we can get back to decent ball in a couple of years.

Decent would be a good start.

At least chief pass dropper / underperformer C'Mon Moore will be gone.

A new HC who doesn't accord PT to subpar performers might salvage the wheat from the chaff.
