I hear ya mogray. It just kind of pisses me off because I did/do think GP was/is a good coach. I think he elevated the program and had a chance to continue elevating it. Coming off the Daniel era, you got highly touted Gabbert(whether you like him or not, he was sought after). With the winning seasons you followed it up with DGB. The momentum could have been ridden into the SEC (and I understand injuries played a part) but instead of riding that momentum, I heard too much about...

DWI's
Divorces
More time at bars
Other coaches outworking them on the recruiting trail
Phone calls not getting returned to recruits

It just reeks of being complacent and distracted and I think that has as much to do with it as injuries.

Yep, I was the biggest Pinkel guy.. but all those things you listed made me turn on him. Now I just hope he does well bc it's good for MU, but I have no love for the guy anymore.

It also doesn't help that the overall atmosphere of the fans is atrocious, people outside of the program pick up on the vibe. That's hurting us too.
