Nzoner's Game Room>****Official 2018 Missouri Tigers Football Thread****
'Hamas' Jenkins 05:36 PM 07-30-2018
The beginning of the 2018 season is a little under five weeks away. Missouri enters the year projected to finish 4th in the East, and may be a borderline Top 25 team according to some projection systems. After a disappointing recruiting cycle last year, pressure is on Odom to restock the cupboard after the senior years of Lock and Beckner, who will go down as two of the better Tigers in history and likely first round draft picks.

Schedule:

Spoiler!


Recruiting:

Spoiler!


At this point, the class is ranked 68-69 nationally by Rivals and 24/7. Odom is going to have to rely on Pinkel's diamond-in-the-rough approach. It looks like they've pulled back considerably from Georgia, focusing more upon Texas, which is what they should have always done. Unfortunately, they've done horrific in-state, and I think that will likely end up being the nail in Odom's coffin after the 2019 season.

12/19 Update: A strong finish late in the cycle moved the class up significantly. Securing commitments from grad transfer Kelly Bryant and TCU transfer Shawn Robinson has solidified the QB position in the short and intermediate term. A class that was ranked in the 60's at the beginning of the season is now a top 20-30 class factoring in transfers.

Hamas' Crystal Ball: 8-4; 4-4 in the SEC (wins vs. Ark, Tenn, Vandy, Kentucky)

I think Odom is poised to do that.

He’s got a better overall staff and I feel confident they’ll recruit better and work harder.

Pinkel’s staff got really complacent towards the end.

Clay Travis had an interesting tidbit this morning on his radio show. No National Champion since 2000 Oklahoma has had a recruiting class worst than #10 on their national title team.

In a word, yes.

He's done a lot of great things for Mizzou and was a key part of Pinkel's rise/success. But he's clearly at the end of the road.

He's got one year left on his deal. They won't force him out, but I think we'll see a mutual parting of ways after 2019.

So it looks like Justin Fields is going to transfer to tOSU and he might very well get a hardship waiver because his own fans were N-bombing him during the Tennessee game.

I think it involved a baseball player and they had to kick him out in result.

It's been since his Sr year in hs since I was a part of this conversation, but the kid was always going to be a qualification issue, and to make it worse, he just doesn't love football (or at least that was the case then. Maybe it has change, now). So there wasn't as big an incentive for him to work hard to get eligible.
