I want Drunk to stay, but if he wants to move on then I'm not upset.

Missouri has become one of the better jobs in the SEC and the country. Sure some other teams have more money or located closer to talent rich areas, but Mizzou has big boy NIL funding and little to no scrutiny or pressure. The NIL money isn't going to dry up if Drink leaves, and a coach could have a 30 year secure position as long as you win 8-10 games a year and a decent shot to make the playoffs.

With all of the mess going on in major college football, job security and an admin that stays out of your way, has to be desirable. That and a legitimate NIL backing makes it a good job.

Mizzou is paying top 10ish coavh salary and NIL right now but not getting top 10 results. And no one is putting any pressure on Drink (except for people not liking the OC Moore).

So they fire a coach that was winning 9 games at Vandy with no resources and hire a coach winning 9 games a year at Missouri with massive NIL money Missouri’s paying and that loses to every good team he plays?

Imagine firing Franklin for never winning the big game, and then hiring Drink.


Would be one of the more head-scratching coaching hires in recent memory.

Drink is 0-16 in games against SEC teams that finish over .500 in conference play. Think that’s right.

I give you a 3 out of 10 on your photoshopping skills...but valiant effort none the less....

By the way...that car costs around 200k so I guess you can choose whatever colors you prefer. Black & Gold is beautiful man....

Drink is locked in...not going anywhere. Mizzou is a great job with Chancellor support, President of University support, and a crap ton of money, both in the bank and untapped donors...

It's a new day regarding "great places to Coach" with NIL and parity across the board. Besides Eli would have to trade in his beautiful ride....

Fair point, solid observation...but..one of the things that helped end Franklin's tenure at Penn St, was the fact, that Franklin wasn't a big portal guy..not like Dabo...but they didn't do much..were slow to keep their own guys, and Franklin was on record as having a general malaise towards the portal. Franklin will have to adjust wherever his next job is. Here is the tidbit most Mizzou fans can't quite grasp....Eli has not fully built Mizzou into a top 5-9 SEC contender yet..he's made great strides, beat the teams he should..but missed a recruit here and there, a missed a game here and there. Say what you will about Franklin, but he IS A BUILDER! The right GM, and an embrace of the portal to mesh with his message and he will contend for titles.
