Natural selection at work. Anyone think the two women jump on the grenade for him?

Billingsley isn’t coming to Mizzou. Was recently arrested on felony stealing charges.

According to Gabe there are some questions whether the individual in the report is actually the Kevon Billingsley committed to Mizzou, just FYI.

Gabe has retracted his statement that Kevon Billingsley was arrested.

Gabe is having a tough month.

What else did Gabe screw up this month?

I stopped following him years ago. I talked with his dad one time when the Big12 meltdown began and came away shocked the man held a job as a professional journalist. Read Gabe for a while after that and it dawned on me it's the same moronic / arrogant thought process.

Apparently Keith Billingsley was arrested and claimed he was his brother Kevon.

Not really Gabe's fault to be honest.

Really? As a journalist did Gabe consider verifying the story before running with it? Maybe call the police? Maybe call the family?

Oddly when they needed to investigate it further, they were able to get to the bottom of the story rather quickly and get the facts. Shocking how journalism works isn't it?

I mean he went off a police report, that's pretty official.

Going off the actual police report would count as verifying.

An online court document was available showing the older brother listed. Might be something you'd want to check as a journalist. Being right is more important than being first.

Yes there were two piece of information online. One gave one name, another a different name and only one was checked. When someone else looked into it and saw the problem is when things got investigated.

Call the police department and verify the information. It really isn't all that difficult.

Start the 2021 recruiting thread and have Reedus pin it.

Yep, if someone who will update it regularly starts the thread, I'll sticky it.

Here's Mizzou's 2021 offers. Looks like they are offering more higher-rated players.

You might as well junk that list. With a new coaching staff those offers don’t mean anything.

I still think they keep most of those offers out and then Drink will add more for his taste from here on out.

I’ll start it. Don’t we usually wait until the prior class is done?
