I expect BO’s extension to be similar to Campbell

Excited to announce Matt Campbell has agreed to a new six-year contract worth $22.5M. Matt's annual salary will increase from $2.1M to $3.5M. We will also increase the football staff's annual compensation by $1M. Go Cyclones! #raisethestandard


The only number that really matters is the buyout, which probably won’t change much for BO. Which would still allow Sterk to fire BO if Mizzou has a bad year next season.

Didn't Iowa St. beat Oklahoma this year?

ISU has the same record as Mizzou.

Extensions are only important as a recruiting tool. It’s easy to fire a coach if he underperforms. BO met expectations this year, so will get rewarded. If he falls on his face next season, the extension will not prevent him from being fired.

They sure did, and TCU...but after that they pretty much fell on their face down the stretch going 1-3 to finish the season. I really hope we get them in a bowl.

I'd expect BO to get a slight raise. More money in the asst pool and the extension to not drastically change his current buyout which is essentially nothing.

Out of Iowa St. 5 losses this year nobody destroyed them.

And their attendance went up, not down.

I do expect Barry to get a slight raise and an extension. He’s earned that. There’s no reason to give him a $1M/year raise.

I would bet attendance will be up next season.
Attendance at Mizzou is usually a year behind on field results. If Lock and TBJ come back Mizzou will be a top 20-30 team next preseason.

And that’s when you can give him a bigger raise. Not after we’ve bled $6M from our football ticket sales.

More important to increase the assistant pool. LSUs dline coach just retired. Not sure Bebe would hire Haley away but Odom needs to pay him enough to stay.

Huepel Elerbee and Haley should be the focus

BO isn't going anywhere. Let's lock down the assistance THEN give Odom something

Let him go above 500 as a coach

Let him beat a team over 500

Let him get a big win

Let him show consistency

Then he's earned a raise.

Does it really matter, all that matters is the buy out when you fire him.

I really don't get this "well recruits want to see he will be there their entire time".

What does that have to do with a contract these days? Coaches get fired or take other jobs without ever getting near their contract obligations.

This whole "he needs to be signed for 4 years thing" is a fallacy.

It's about having a solid rebuttal against negative recruiting. A coaches contract is even lower fruit than a bad season. One less thing to have to defend when you are in someone's living room.

Negative recruiting?

BO's
record
fan attendance for games
inability to beat 500 and above teams
2 year record is sub 500


How does an extension help with the above in recruiting?

I guess my point it. If I am a recruiter going against BO, I have plenty of other things to nail him on...... An extension or no extension would be well back on my list

"We struggled at the beginning of the year,made changes and won 6 straight. The University is committed long-term to what we are doing. Here is how you fit into our plan.". It ends that discussion and turns focus back on the player, which is what they want anyway.

If an extension is designed to help him recruit then I expect him to get better recruits. Right now hes recruiting kids who have offers from non p5 conferences or low level p5 programs. If he's recruiting "diamonds in the rough" types an extension doesnt help. If he's going to get a few 4 star dbs then im cool with it. Mizzou should extend the guy who makes the schedule. That guy lined up 2 cupcakes and 3 dumpster fires at just the right time.

It's living room season and that stability is important when you aren't selling being a blue blood. With the amount of coaching turnover, they have time to flip some 4* players.

My point is an extension doesn't matter. You could give him a 10 year contract but if the buyout is only $2 mil then it's irrelevant.

Do what you have to for recruiting, but from my perspective it really doesn't matter how many years he has. Now if you extend him for 6 and he has a $20 mil buyout I'll be upset.

Absolutely. Recruiting talent that most P5 programs didn't even look at doesn't do much for the program...... Other then providing cannon fodder for pumpers on the MB's.

Land talent. Not roster fillers.

Hopefully if we win our Bowl, we could flip some of that instate talent that left... That would be a good start

He couldn't do that again if he tried lol

I'm not sure about anyone else here.... I had no clue Florida and tenner would be the shite shows they were this year.

Curious to see how we do against our bowl opponent.
