I mean, whatever. They have some players there, but it's not IMG or anything.

And say what you will, but it's always spotty if they will qualify or not.


Some sanity amidst a lot of insanity in this thread.

Having said that, I'd bet that in most years, ESL will have at least one player that is in the top 3 or 4 players in the metro STL area. So if we want to pull from STL completely, we do have make take steps to mend whatever fences need mending.

BernieBro here. frick trump.

ESL is a joke dude. And all those little shite towns over there. They are like that because the politics over there are just straight up corruption and graft.

That's why these communities host strips clubs that double as whore houses. That's why the federal government cleans house in one department or the other on a regular basis.

Don't just give me that bullshite you gave me that's specious and you should be ashamed of yourself for making such a poor argument in public forum.

I don't really know what ESLHS's problem is, I was really happy to have them as a pipeline, Mizzou was doing a lot to help the kids out with sign and place. I was a big fan of it in the first place.

Sorry one of the coaches they liked got cancer, and one wasn't humble enough to remain under Coach BO, and went out with extreme sour grapes. Cornell Ford is still there by the way, frick him though right? Odom made ESL an early priority and then Darren Sunkett just lies to the national media saying he never came and visited.

Basically Mizzou has for the second time in a decade caught all kinds of negative flack for no reason. Just on the whim of a coach and a few of his players.

I'm sure they will keep recruiting ESL, but why keep recruiting guaranteed sign and places, or flying the helicopter out, or having their whole team down to columbia and shite. That's cadillac treatment and they turn around and trash us, and no valid reason has been given.

I haven't followed their basketball in a while but I remember it being funny when I was in high school, seeing a kid playing football in the fall and then playing him in basketball but with him playing for ESL Lincoln, who used to be the power in east side hoops back in the day.

I didn't say shite about who you voted for. Really don't give a shite either. Because you reference that right off, I will assume you were responding to someone else with the rest of it too.

Maybe one of, but definitely not the only. There's definitely some others. I've accepted the fact that the world is just gonna be filled with douche bags of all colors.

I qualified my comment to admit this. This guy constantly applies this race crap here, though.

I think, for the most part, we avoid this crap as a community here on this board.

Don't disagree at all. With a lot of what Mizzou has gone through in the last year plus, it could have been really ugly on this board.

I have never been called a racist in my life until I came on the Mizzou forums. I haven't called anybody else racist unless you think that being a Trumpster is like being called a racist or being from the backwoods. Some people need to go read their comments on the football team protesters.

You should get out of your personal bubble.

ESL players have an issue and a history of not qualifying for college out of HS. That's a fact. That's a tax on a recruitment budget/time for a middling program like Mizzou. To have that patience turned around and spit on the program and its fans/alums is bound to have some blowback.

NO ONE OWES YOU OR ESL HIGH PLAYERS ANYTHING at Mizzou. Mizzou has provided avenues to these athletes to attend through Jr College and then earn their spots on the team through merit on the practice field and hard work in the classroom while at Missouri.

I think maybe its their coach or something but it could also be the snowflake, entitled mentality of so many kids these days. They are not objective, i think Greg Taylor is an example of this, they feel they are a star in their own eyes. Its ok to have confidence but kids today arent objective or self aware, Taylor felt like he should be the starter just because he seen himself as a star. This is common with a lot of these recruits, i dont care if someone has 8 stars, they have to go beat out everyone and earn their playing time and dont get a free pass because they think they are the best recruit in the nation in their own mind.

Think I may have read on another forum that Taylor already has a kid. Wonder if he was starting to get nervous about his opportunities/path to the NFL, started to feel desperate, and just started lashing out because he did not want to admit to himself and his supporters that maybe he had just not earned time on the field. Or maybe he is just not a pro level player and talent.

It is amazing how a lot of college coaches and their staffs handle all the different egos they are forced to juggle to keep their teams heading in the right direction.

Saying that some one connects with Black folks isn't a bad thing. It's a plus for a coach because most of your good players are black. It's a simple fact. People like Zou brownmajic ruin every thing with their race racisty race race race post. Yeah I voted for Trump. So?
