MU ****Official 2013-14 Missouri Tiger Football Repository Thread****

'Hamas' Jenkins · 01:02 PM

We have two things to look forward to this year:

1) The potential beginning of the Maty Mauk Era. Mauk represents the best chance for this program to get back to a level of respectability after horrendous QB play cost us multiple games last year.

2) The last year of the Gary Pinkel era. Pinkel's entrenched cronyism won't play in a conference this competitive, especially if he couples his abysmal gameday coaching with lackadaisical, worst-in-conference recruiting. Pinkel was the formerly adequate meal that has now turned into a four pound bowel obstruction. It's time to jam a Fleet's enema up our collective asses.

Here is the schedule. We dodge Alabama, LSU, and Arkansas in the west and the Non-con is decidedly weaker than years past.

8/31: Murray State
9/7: Toledo
9/21: @ Indiana
9/28: Arkansas State
10/5:@ Vanderbilt
10/12: @ Georgia
10/19:Florida
10/26: South Carolina
11/2:Tennessee
11/9: @ Kentucky
11/23: @ Ole Miss
11/30: aTm

Looks like 6-6. Undefeated in non-con, 2-6 in league play.

I will eventually update the OP with a list of high profile in-state recruits that decide to go elsewhere after a half-assed attempt to gain their services. The inevitable cavalcade of *** rejects, skeezers, skanks, and scalliwags we get will fill out the ranks.

Razors, cyanide capsules, and Jonestown Kool-Aid are available in the break room. Second door on the left.

Since every Mizzou thread eventually dies of AIDS, I recommend starting anti-retroviral therapy immediately. I believe Walgreens covers Express Scripts.

Premium In-State Players:

Roderick Johnson: **** OT, Florissant, MO.
Monte Harrison: **** WR, Lee's Summit, MO.
Jimmy Swain: **** LB, Lee's Summit, MO

Commitment List: From

to

and possibly

Spoiler!

I'll go ahead and request a razor.

I probably do deserve a painful contraction of aids for my continued support of shit sports teams.

Hamas - you can put your first recruiting failure in the OP. Rivals 100 OL Andy Bauer from St. Louis committed to Ole Miss.

CoMoChief · 03-19-2013, 06:35 AM

Another hilarious selection on non-conf opponents.

This is a huge fail. A position of need, chance to start right away and yet he flees to Ole Miss? Pinkel is a lame duck coach it seems and I would not doubt coach will use this as a recruiting tatic against him.

Pinkel's been having trouble getting the high profile in-state kids. That's a must if he's wanting to compete in the SEC. MO isn't a HS recruiting hot bed by any means so you gotta get what you can...and he's been unable to do that. I mean he was able to get DGB and a couple others...but there's a lot of STL talent that he's been unable to snatch up.

Absolutely. The negative recruiting going on against Pinkel and company has to be impressive to say the least.

For the '14 class, Rivals lists one top-100 player in the state of MO, and Mizzou cannot lock him up? Shameful.

Gary, you built something. Got the program on its feet. But now you need to get the **** out before you reduce it to the rubble it was before you arrived.

Prison Bitch · 03-19-2013, 08:26 AM

I cannot believe the MU fans, partic the big money alums, are going to tolerate that garbage non-con slate at home. Surely Alden will have hell to pay for that total nonsense.

I agree, but also disagree. Until we start winning games consistently and start being more competitive, we will not get the highly rated recruits.

That seems like a really favorable schedule. I sure hope Mauk is enough of a spark plug to energize this team.

duncan_idaho · 03-19-2013, 09:00 AM

Bauer is a weird case. I know a guy who's close to the family, and apparently he's a gigantic mama's boy.

From that perspective, I guess choosing Ole Miss over Bama or LSU makes sense. Much easier to get from West County to Oxford.

Otherwise, it makes little sense to me, considering the offers this kid had. I know that Pinkel's job security has been a consideration for Bauer in the past.

It's hard to imagine them pulling in a great recruiting class after the disappointing 2012 season.

And I think, ultimately, Pinkel's legacy will be defined by his refusal to upgrade his staff. His stubborn and blind loyalty SEVERELY crippled his upside and ruined some chances for him to win bigger at Missouri.

Keeping guys like Brian Jones, Bruce Walker, Matt Eberflus around is just criminal. Hiring Alex Grinch looks like a disaster.

Prediction: the 2014 recruiting class will end up reminding Missouri fans an awful lot of the 2011 basketball recruiting class...

Damn.

What's that say about the 2013 recruiting class? Because that thing was a warmed over piece of crap in its own right.

The amount of OL talent in-state in 2014 is extremely rare and potentially transformational.

It's not just Bauer. Several other guys, including Roderick Johnson.
