It's about football and basketball. Any coach would have trouble recruiting with the current situation. If you're a Mizzou fan it's a double win. You don't have to worry about recruiting and you look good to the academic establishment.

Do you want to be more like Bob Jones University or Yale? Your choice.

no, wrong as usual Ralph(good name for you), the kids that are smart enough to know this was just some campus dingbat hunger strike, wonder why the HC was dumb enough to go along with the idiotic schtik of a "football strike".

The real problem w/ coach dumbnuts going along with it, is it now makes it appear to the black players that fell for this that they somehow "were right", when they weren't.

Pinkel has done nothing more than set a bad precedence by showing weakness and or the inability to understand what the hell's going on. He should have supported the University but instead he added credence to the idea there is some "systemic problem" at MU, when there isn't.

Pinkel acted stupidly, but then that really shouldn't surprise anyone.
