Everything that Pinkle built was destroyed by that 2015 team

fricking done with Pettiway Nicholson Robinson Manuel and Rakestraw. They all had a chance to make a tackle and didn’t. Rakestraw fricking quit cuz he was running next to the guy at the 5 and pulled up and let him score never even trying to tackle him

It just amazes me how bad this defense is. I want to watch this game I really do. But it's just so awful.

That’s an extreme over simplification to put it all on one team. It’s 6 years later. Something tells me that while that team got the ball rolling there is a lot of other shot since then that holds blame

Manual makes alot of tackles. Rakestraw and Burdine have talent, but didn't make a jump in skills this year. We just seem small, slow and ineffective on D.

We went from competing for SEC championships to dog shite. Our recruiting went into the toilet. It all started there. Sure, there been things since then. But, you can’t tell me that team boycott didn’t frick the program

Well I'm tapping out. Enjoy the rest of the game if you continue to watch and don't destroy your livers.

That’s just not true. In a sport that is predominantly black with parents that had certain concerns, his stance helped reinforce a commitment to those kids. I have heard that from many black players.

If we want to be real, then let’s be real. We had a recruiting problem that after transitioning to the SEC has further hurt us. Because of our “support”, which goes past fans but to the donors and other things needed to pull recruits, coaching talent coming to Mizzou has been an issue.

After the rebuilds at the top SEC programs, does Pinkel fields a consistent 7 win team with breaks to get to 10 in the last 7 years, probably, would that be the ceiling under him? That’s a resounding yes.

What Drinkwitz can potentially do is groundbreaking to push this program to where it needs to go. On the other hand, he is showing a glaring problem for a head coach. I understand lack of talent and recognize we don’t have horses, but what you see on defense is inexcusable. I don’t care we lost people to the portal and etc. You are facing a Tennessee team who has every similar excuse but you have a head coach who has successfully navigate respectability to some extent. As a SEC team, there is no excuse to be this bad and that’s on Drink.

I'm out elk hunting this week and just checked the score. This sucks. It's one thing to lose. It's another thing to embarrass yourself.

There was no boycott. They played the next game and won. And why would that team prevent other black kids from wanting to play at Mizzou? Didn't stop Oklahoma or Ole Miss.

The so called "boycott" still bothers a few "ahem" Caucasians, but college football is built in the living rooms of black families.

Sooner or later, you pay for poor recruiting. It will take 2-3 good classes to get back.

Hot take.

I do agree Drink owns this season and it has nothing to do with Pinkel.

This is true. Pinkle semi-abandoned Texas to try to recruit Georgia and Florida. Big mistake which Odom rectified but the damage had occurred.

Drink's recruiting nationally (including to our north) which is what should have been done from Day One joining the SEC.

I didn’t say it didn’t hurt the program but you act like that is all there is to blame when the reality is today’s shite show has little to do with 6 years ago. Like I said it was a factor but not the only factor.

I just think it was the catalyst. All race issues and donation issues aside. Odoms lack of recruiting ability, terrible hire in Dooley, and just bad HC kept the program from coming back.


I like Drink, I like what he brings. But, I think the Wilks hire was a bad choice.

I can't believe this team went 5-5 in an all SEC schedule last year.
