Good article in Montgomery Advertiser about Drinkwitz and "duties" at Auburn LINK
quote:
Drinkwitz’s first college football job was for the 2010 team, making around $15,000 a year as a support staffer, he says. Twelve years later, he’s returning to Jordan-Hare Stadium as a head coach when Missouri (2-1) visits Auburn (2-1) for the SEC opener Saturday (11 a.m. CT, ESPN).

His next job might also be coffee intern at the Saban Center For Wayward Coaches.

You’ve got to start somewhere right?

The exact moment he realized he could be more than just another barista

You got to get your foot in the door somehow. I spent more time outside of Georgia than in Georgia for the first 5 years of my career doing a job that was advertised as being no more than 25% travel.
A guy that used to work with me started off making like 40% of what I was making but doing the same work. It was his first real job after college. He kicked arse and is now making very close to what I make.

I thought Misssouri fans were on his side?

Hey, I’m all for jokes against Eli….
But this part is actually cool and shows you he actually worked for it to move his way up to the top. It wasnt gave to him.

I feel like that's still the best role for him

That's more than I made as a GA. I miss and don't miss those days, the hours and work were ridiculous, but some of the most fun times of my life.This post was edited on 9/22/22 at 8:19 am

By and large MU fans are still on his side. We're baffled by his lack of an offensive game plan (or inability to execute one) and we're impatient.
I for one am biding my time until Sam Horn has developed enough to get a shot at QB. Assuming Sam works out, and assuming Drink's able to retain the other talent he has recruited, we'll have a real opportunity to see if he can put it all together and move the program forward or not.
That's going to be 2023. Anyone thinking he is gone before 2023 is simply wrong.

Hey Rambo, I've got what I believe is some legit dirt on him, but I'm not saying what it is, because I want him to stay at Mizzou

Did you get him as a client at the whore house you work at?

This country loves when people start from the bottom and work themselves up to the top.
Except when people start at the bottom and work themselves up to the top.

Good for him. That makes me like/respect him more. Was that your intent when posting?

Good for him, that’s a hell of a career trajectory. Choosing football over Magic: The Gathering was a good move for him.
