Sigh

I will be completely underwhelmed and not shocked one bit.

Update: crow never tasted so delicious

I am both overwhelmed and shocked. Thank you Coach Gates for the healthy serving of said crow.

And now I’m sad again.

Can’t be underwhelmed if you had extremely low expectations already. And yet somehow I still am.

What a ho hum pick. I’m hoping this is like the Arkansas St coach trial balloon for football. But it’s national writers releasing this. Not a good sign.

My sources have had nothing. They’ve locked down this search pretty tight. And if it’s Gates, it’s for no reason.

It’s almost a Ricky Rayesque hire.

A WGAF hire.

If true, the best it can be is a 3 year place holder for the Kim English hire the damn writers are all jonesing for. And that DRF is a mere drone.

IF true.

Mizzou Athletics is something else.

I’m so glad we’re a pro sports state.

If he can recruit as well as ESPN suggests he can then it wont be bad at all. Ideal? Probably not.

Might not be fair but now this is Missouri so Show-Me that you can recruit and coach and bring that FSU background of playing 10 guys all which can start 20 mins a game on average and running that up-tempo pressure system with freaky big men protecting the rim.

If he can recruit as well as suggested by the pundits he should have no problems getting STL kids, KC kids, and some Link Year kids to CoMo every year.

And..............ESPN is still garbage.

Their article ties him to recruiting some of Hamiltons best FSU players. Maybe he had a hand maybe he didnt but according to 247 this is this guys best recruits so far

He recruited well under Hamilton. Hamilton has not stopped or slowed down in recruiting since Gates left. Gates recruited no one of note to Cleveland State out of high school. He did attract some transfers from P5 schools.

I don’t expect him to come in a light up the recruiting trail.

It is hard to tell. It looks like Hamilton liked listing himself as the primary recruiter of his players.

Maybe you need to apply for the AD position so that you know what to do to make Mizzou great again!

There are many other, better candidates. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure this out.
