There's 8 BILLION in financial support consolidated in 3 people that live in Columbia, Mo. And all of them are quite supportive of MU athletics when they need to be (just witness the Painter fiasco, the Page arena, the baseball stadium, etc, etc...). Even beyond those 3, there's a ton of local money in Columbia, it's really surprising once you get about 5 minutes north of town to the wooded districts - million dollar homes everywhere.

There's a shitload of money available to this school and it may be possible that a move to the SEC gets those boosters to lay more of it out to keep par with those schools. How great would a major overhaul/replacement of Faurot field be? Afterall, we don't compare to Memorial Stadium, let alone those monsters in the south.

A move to the SEC may be just what the program would need to become more than just the sleeping giant it's been referred to for the last 1/4 century. Maybe a higher degree of difficulty is what wakes this program up.

But you have an awkward way of saying it...

Totally. When I post from my mobile, I really condense my thoughts, and the result can be less than eloquent.
