What has Drink really accomplished to get another raise?

[Barksdale's People]

One of the best records through six years in school history.

[hdhntr148]

Barksdale remember the FB coach with a statue on campus never won anything of note either. Even the years they were highly rated and one game away from NC, which of course they promptly lost, they never won a conference championship. That's why no one in SEC respects MU FB and now they are reupping a Guy who was already one of highest paid HC's in all CFB. He has only one victory against ranked TN team to his credit in all 6 years. Rest of SEC he is O for and many of those were beat downs.

Plus he refused to fire the guy who had a awful timid offense last year and who got even worse this year and cost Tiger fans a opportunity to be relevant and are once again limping to end of year game against a woeful AR team who are on 9 game losing streak yet could beat MU.

tiger fans will have another low ranked bowl to go to with little enthusiasm for the program. Yes he destroyed all the great cred he has built up in just a couple of short weeks. I know have moved on to a HC of a program who knows what to do and we have great optimism about in HC Gates and his program which is relevant now.

Who would you hire?

MU BB relevant?

Says who?

says more about the university and the lack of fans giving a sheyat for MANY years

And now that the University gives a big sheyat and the fans have sold out the stadium for three straight years, the OP and several others question why the BOC wants to keep moving in drive instead of their suggestion of just coasting in neutral.

[Armchair QB]

So if we were to walk away from Drink, what are we thinking the odds would be we’d hire someone who could exceed what Drink did in his 1st 5 or 6 years?

5% chance, maybe? Why risk that? Remember the years after Warren Powers?

We’re better off to let him continue to try and build on his successes thus far. Our program isn’t perfect, but it’s pretty (bleep) good right now. A few moves, a few players, maybe some learning and wisdom by Drink on what will help get over the hump and we might just get to the mountain top.

[AtillaTheBlue1]

I see Attila. He's 42 years old and hasn't done it yet.

And therefore, will not do it.

Now outside of this forum among his peers, it's a whole different story.

reading is fundamental, you should get hooked on phonics

Here's how most read it along with myself.

The BOC isn't making sure Drink is locked down, because the word in their world is he hasn't got it done, can't get it done and/or won't get it done. (Now that's phonics)

The Op asked a question. I answered it with a fact. Simple as that. Happy Thanksgiving whiners.

I’m not getting any younger. I want to see us win. I want to see us play disciplined football. I want to see us recruit a good QB and call interesting offensive plays. If Drink left, we’d have to start all over. But, the message has to be we cannot get stuck in the mud. The resources must generate results. Or else. The offense this year was hard to watch and cost us games.

yes, then see the mass exodus of players in the transfer portal. Mizzou do have lots of talent now. Another decent class coming in.

The offense was a downer this year. QB issues and a shaky o-line. QB is the biggest issue. It could be because the QB situation is why the O-line is shakey. Sam Horn hurt again.....

Lane Kiffin is going somewhere. I bet where goes will be a major headache and may not even win anything. He should stay put.

LSU, Penn State, Florida, Auburn to name a few do not realize that times have changed. Spending gobs of money on a coach does not necessarily win you championships. These schools are heading to the wayside with the likes of Nebraska. Remember Nebraska once was a national power.

Drink is what 40 or 41 years old? Still young

The courts just ruled that LSU has to pay Kelly 54 million…

I wonder if they are recalculating their offer to Lane…

Why would Mizzou have to start all over? Look what a coaching change did for A&M. That being said, I don’t see Drink getting fired nor should he. 20+ straight sellouts, including blood donor” games, two major stadium renovations and a tremendous improvement in facilities agree with me. Maybe Drink is a flim-flam man, but no one has connected with the students, donors and fans like he has since I started following Mizzou 1965.

A new sheriff means a new set of rules, etc. Consider, the new coach getting to know where Shakespeare’s is and I would think there would be a getting to know you period with everyone he comes in contact with, including the big donors, like Whineonsportz. You don’t need me to point out those things….

Agree…..if NIL and portal policies continue as is…the days of college dynasties are over..

LSU has been upside down on their last 2 coaches to the tune of $71 million in buyout. And those 2 coaches won A LOT.

Tough gig down there but I guess they can afford to churn these coaches.

In a portal world…the blue bloods are not as blue as they used to be…..

Just this year, LSU, Penn St, Fla, Bama, others all down..

Teams can’t collect players they way they used to…no matter how much they pay the coach…
