Mizzou player quotes from start of spring practice:

"They've got to come through Missouri to win the East."

"Everybody's coming after us."

"We can do more than we did last year."

I know you lost the two dominating DEs but honestly your team looks really good next year on paper. I could see them winning the East again.

It can for certain kinds of players for sure, Mauk obviously is one of those swagger guys who *needs* to be saying stuff like that to play at his best. What alarms me is some of those quotes came from Darius White, from whom a more appropriate quote might be, say, "I actually had nothing to do with Mizzou's success last year, so I hope I can just prove I belong on the field at the SEC level" that sorta thing.

You guys couldn't have won the East either so it can't be too pathetic.

Being pathetic for 1 year doesnt mean shite. Just like being good for 1 year makes you a&m

Our two starting DEs for next season, Shane Ray and Markus Golden, were more productive per snap last season than Sam or Ealy.

Markus Golden: 55 tackles, 13 TFL, 6.5 sacks, 4 QB hurries, 1 FF, and 1 INT returned 70 yards for a TD

Shane Ray: 39 tackles, 9 TFL, 4.5 sacks, 8 QB hurries, 2 FF, and 1 fumble recovery for 73 yards and a TD

The issue is if we have guys behind them we can sub in and be productive.

By playing a schedule full of West teams? I don't think it works quite like that.
