It's adorable but a little too late.

Thank God our administration had the foresight to at least make us a respectable program in football so we could stay in a power conference. Probably saved our university.

I would hate to be a fan of a school that will be stuck in the mid majors forever because they prioritized a dying niche sport like college basketball.

Sad.

This is a nice fantasy for Missouri fans, I guess, but I was asking about things rooted in reality.

Kansas just won a National Championship in the sport you don't care about, but also just had its best football season in a over a decade.

Missouri is barely treading water in football and has been far worse off in the past decade than they were before leaving the Big 12 and might as well be a mid-major in basketball.

FFS, the school is what, like 12 years into the SEC and you could have been placed in the same bowl as lowly dying Kansas this season.... and you're trying to tell us how it's all sunshine and roses?

Who are you trying to convince, exactly?


And you didn't answer the timeline question... when should I expect Kansas sports to die and Missouri to do something with all that money you'll never see but is somehow really important to you?

Check-in in another decade and a half, maybe?

Send Pepe over to Tigerboard in 2040 to see how it's going?
