I feel the same way about CF in general. This is now just pro sports, and my ancestors and I have funded it but never receive anything. Instead I watch a bunch of ingrates coach and play and bitch that it's never enough money.
Transfer portal helps us, but also makes it so that the old 4-5 year journey a player goes through isn't experienced anymore. Maybe Alabama and Georgia fans still experience that.
None. And I'm mostly done with college fb.

I've come to the conclusion that watching/following pro sports (college is now professional) emasculates men.

Aren't player limits gone? If so, and if the boosters don't mind paying the extra, then picking up players for cheap with high upside seems worth it.
As long as we don't skimp on the needs.

Are the coaches leaving being nudged out the door?

Can we get more Auburn defenders?
could you post stats of % black pop at the time of desegregating the football team? You might be right, but Missouri has large black populations in both StL and KC, and those two cities are about 85% of MO pop.
That isn't what flyover state is referring to.
Very true, what you said does not actually contradict what I said. But that takes levels of exploration beyond what you can find in academia today.

God named him Israel for a reason. You are going to struggle with God, and not understand him.

The bible never promises you a fun or happy life. Mostly the opposite.
When you do find God, though, it turns out he was right next to you the whole time.
is that pic photoshopped?
Disagree with your characterization.
Mizzou started and anchored the original Missouri Valley Conference, then was a big part of changing that conference to the Big 6, Big 7, and finally Big 8. The merger with 4 Texas schools to form the Big 12, Mizzou didn't exercise much power toward. I always felt that was Texas, Oklahoma and Nebraska. Mizzou only left after others started flirting and it became toxic.

I'm not necessarily in disagreement, but Widenhofer inherited Onofrio's teams, which had the talent to upset anyone. Stull inherited Woody's talent.

Also, as far as Barbara Euhling goes, she had more years to work her "magic" against our football program by the time Stull started. The training facilities were at least a decade behind everyone by the time he started.

The Big 8 at the time was like a knife fight in an elevator, and Nebraska and Oklahoma were usually the only ones with knives. Colorado had some high years during that era.

I'm also sure some coaches from before the 1940's (Faurot) had bad results.
what kind of figlet watches network tv?
I'm ambivalent. Either way is fine, as long as Mizzou is smart enough to have a current list of who they want.

Ok, we won't shoot the messenger. But please pass along people's thoughts if there is an opportunity.

BTW, always appreciated when you do pass along info you come across.
At Auburn this year and that game we fumbled and kicked away.
#1 on the offseason checklist is done.
If the world were fair, all property related to the universities belongs to the citizens, since they granted land tax priveleges, and/or money.

Disgusting. The PE firm could end up forcing contracts on the team, and therefore university, for services at inflated prices while stripping out the assets and saddling debt onto the university.
