Nobody wants to see Mizzou sign a bunch of 4*s and end up playing like the Vols. I just want to see them take that next step and find a way to recruit better players and stop using the moniker "we do what we do"(under-the darn-radar-players) It's time for the fan base to demand they up their recruiting talent. It's time to at least be a year in and year out winning program and once in a while beat a true on-their-game blue blood.

It's about winning consistently. Look at the records for the Dan Devine coached Mizzou Tigers and how he only had 1 losing season in his Mizzou coaching career. He was Mizzou's best coach ever and the most consistent. We will never recruit like the Bamas and Ohio States, but we could recruit better.

I get that we get sucked into recruiting rankings. But building a program around 4 and 5 star players can be as challenging if not more challenging than doing it the Mizzou way. Saban can manage the egos of the kids he recruits. So many of these coaches recruit highly rated players, but produce poorly run teams i.e. UT and Florida.

Coach B.O. matches up very well with kids who have something to prove. He is a no nonsense type of coach, would he mesh with a team if half of them were entitled jackasses? Pandering to playing time and threats to transfer.

What in the world would this do?

I tell you what would make a difference. Start showing up to the games and donating A LOT more money.

Again though, I don’t give a damn what the “stars” say. I care about the on the field results.
