re: You think Drinkwitz would leave in 2023?

Yeah Drink is the same age as Lincoln (38), and would tend to agree most coaches do not stay at the same institution their whole careers, but if there was a conference for that to happen it would most likely be in the SEC at this point because of the facilities, athletic department budgets, and prestige as a whole.

I agree with another post in this thread about it will depend on what Drink ultimately wants, but the jump from a Sunbelt team to the SEC is not comparable from the SEC to another P5. I am not saying Mizzou's job is the most attractive on the market but our facilities are continuing to make strides as well as having legitimate benefits of being the only FBS institution in the state. Couple that with the recruiting successes and Drink's ties to the Southeast I think he is in a pretty good spot for himself with us or for the next step if that is somewhere else (Another SEC school perhaps, or NFL). So far all the results point to him making the most of his current situation, and selling the future vision to recruits which would have me to believe at this time he's pretty happy where he is at but I guess time will tell.
