Got a cousin like that - born and raised in the Kansas City area and was a huge, obnoxious Bronco fan. And he is a complete douche. [Reply]
Mizzou up to 18 nationally in recruiting rankings. Got a commitment from Overland Park, Kansas with offers from KState, kU (lol), Nebraska, Arizona State, and tons of others. [Reply]

How about on the basketball side? I’ve read that Mizzou’s performance in men’s basketball roughly correlates to spending on the program, so more funding theoretically should lead to better results. [Reply]

And according to a recent alumni email, a 150% increase in season ticket sales - so far. Going to be nice to see a full stadium for a change.

Maybe I give people too much credit, but I would think most would understand that unless you have a top 5 class filled with true freshmen ready to contribute that you won’t truly see the results of a recruiting class until at least 1-2 years into their time with the program. 7-5 is fine, it’s still bowl eligible. If they don’t see significant improvement the following season is when you should be concerned. [Reply]

I think a winning record and a full-ish stadium would garner complete support and even more backing going into the 2022 season. I don't think any realistic fan is expecting them to go 10-2 this season. It would be nice, but it's the SEC and it's only Drink's second year. [Reply]
At the game, and so far they haven’t been impressive. Central Michigan is hanging easily. If they had a QB that could hit the right spots they would be up 3 scores [Reply]
