In Nebraska, they feed the hogs. Oh, they also take care of their livestock...

Porter would make far more money, career wise, by staying in school another year before declaring.
No. Richardson DID NOT commit to USC in any way, shape, or form. He took 1 official visit to their campus. He then re-committed to Mizzou. :nana:

re: Aldon Smith again.....you know

I am fine with giving Coach Pinkel credit. However, I do not think Aldon gave anybody problems while in college.

I do believe the money got into his head.

He should publicly acknowledge a problem, and seek treatment. (Even if it is BS; that is the way to go about it.) Then after being 'cured' by treatment, petition the NFL for assistance in finding a team willing to hire him.

Or.., in a few years..., wind up like the former Mizzou wide receiver from Springfield....

There is so much $$ disparity between a 1 or 2 draft than a #10 draft..., it will be worth it long-term for him to develop another year in college.

There is a certain status of being a "1 and done" that I think some kids are unduly influenced by it.

I do agree that there are far more pre-NBA development options than there used to be.

I stand by my statement that if M Porter does not project to be #1 or #2 in this draft, he should eschew hiring an agent and return to school.

If he was my kid that is what I would advise him.
Sheldon Richardson never committed to So. Cal. He committed to Mizzou; then did not have the grades. He went to JUCO in CA; then transferred to Mizzou. He did visit USC once while in JUCO before re-committing to Mizzou.

From the St. Louis newspaper; if M Porter does not hire an agent, he could renounce by May 30 and return to school next season:

Porter, four months removed from surgery, didn’t say whether he will hire an agent. College underclassmen have until April 22 to enter the draft and as long as they don’t sign with an agent can retain their eligibility if they pull out of the draft by May 30. Mizzou did not release any information about Porter’s decision.

M Porter Jr. needs a year of college ball. He would be money ahead, career wise, to stay in college another year. After a season in college he would likely be the 1 or 2 pick in the NBA draft.

J Porter definitely needs another year of college ball.

I think both Porter brothers will be back next year. I do not believe Michael will allow his college career to end as a non-factor in any way, shape, or form.

re: Mizzou beats Micheal Jordan and NC

I did not see the clip but I remember the game very, very well. Ron Jones (6'4" forward; very stout) completely intimidated Michael Jordan. Think Jordan had something like 11 points; most of them when Jones was on the bench.

Ron Jones came to Mizzou on football scholarship; then switched to roundball.
He has not been convicted of anything yet.

In football the stripes have been generally fair to both Mizzou and Texas A&M since joining the SEC.

It is not the same in roundball; the basketball stripes definitely favor the long-time SEC schools.

If any of you watched.... Georgia was on fire against Vandy. Bulldogs were very impressive. I know it was Vandy..., who played us very tough last week.

re: Mizzou pre season ranked at no. 30

This is the 2018 schedule. It is significantly tougher than last year.

Memphis, like Purdue, would have kicked our arse during the first half of last season; 2nd half of the season it would have been a good game. We cannot take Wyoming for granted; anyone else for that matter.

If Mizzou plays all season like they did the 2nd half of last season, they could win 9 or 10 games. However..., we have been slow out of the chute the past 3 seasons.

Think I read recently that each SEC team received 40.9 million of shared SEC revenues in 2016.
I agree with TigerTalk; darned glad to be a member of the SEC.
