Recruiting Class
Rivals

Recruiting class looks like an anal carbuncle right now, and the odd years always have harder home/road conference splits.

Need some weapons to emerge on this team

I haven't been to Columbia since the last time K-State played Mizzou there in 2010 (that was a L for the Cats against a really good Tiger team). I would absolutely make that trip this year but I'm going to be in Italy :)

I'm guessing Mizzou is a 7-5 type team this season?

Depends largely what happens at QB. If they can find a QB that can hit the broad side of a barn, ceiling is 8-9 wins.

If we do the whole thing like last year, again, ceiling is 6 wins and Drinkwitz is shit canned. 60/40 there's a new coach in 2024.

Expecting/looking good on 2-3 **** recruits (2 OLB, 1 WR) in the next week or so. Which will put the class in "normal/minimum expected" range for Mizzou.

They are chasing a ***** WR and DE from in-state. Have a good shot with the WR and a lot of competition for the DE (Georgia, Texas, Alabama), though not out of the picture.

If the team shows it is less snake-oil and more substance this year, I think that will help bump recruiting back up a bit.

In fact, one of those **** LB committed while I was typing that post.

Looks like 5 or 6 wins this thread will be fun

I've got 6-7 wins as the basic expectation. I'm not sure where the program lands with Drinkwitz if that's the case. 6 wins with some good trends (competitive, good QB play, a handful of close losses) is very different than scraping by to 6 wins in terms of how the win total is viewed.

It will be more of the same. The usuals will say **** about 54 times in a variety of ways. Some people will try to logic explain how it's not an actual tire fire and the shit birds will come in here to mention CS1950 because well, we know why.

If Cook starts in 2023, atleast he’ll be healthier than he was in 2022

If Brady Cook starts, then Drinkpiss should be fired immediately.

If that happens, we need to start pooling money for a banner flyover.

Yeah ya'll almost pulled it off against UGA last year. Had they done that we aren't having this conversation right now.

November is going to tell Mizzou's season. No reason they shouldn't be bowl eligible by the time they go to Athens.
