But if its someone like Harsin or a young guy that can intrigue fans and/or win a press conference or two, he'll get the rope he needs. It's the same problem a curmudgeonly ****stain like Jim McElwain has. He's NOT going to win immediately and he's NOT going to be a figure that's liked here. So he just presents nothing that will buy him time. A charismatic and/or young guy will have that time.

I think his job at ASU this year was to watch games for free on the sideline. I'm not convinced he wont get another NFL job. Dont think he was a terrible coach.

Meyer, Kelly, Stoops, and Tressel were the exceptions to the rule and they all took over better jobs than MU. |

Both will require at least 2-3 years to be truly on the right path, but the margin for error over those 2-3 years is higher for Mizzou. Arkansas is a complete disaster right now. There is no reason at all for Mizzou to be viewed internally or externally as an inferior landing spot to Arkansas.

Sterk is trying to pinch pennies with the most important program in Columbia while Arkansas is ****ing stupid, but has their pockets wide open for business. That's all that matters. Money money money. He's not. Just stayed in Cincinnati too long. |

They also have an easier path in the East division than Arkansas does in a brutal West, not to mention more a bit more talent on the present roster. It's just a better situation than Arkansas.

The problem is that he's not presenting anyone to the donors who they feel like chipping in for. What he has to do is at least get one of these better coaches interested in the gig. He's gotta sell the program to a quality candidate to the point that they can at least start talking money. THEN he goes to the donors and says "Hey, I need a 5 year commitment at $4 million/season to get X in here - who's with me?" But since the guy appears incapable of selling pussy in a whorehouse, he can't get a nibble so he can't get a conversation with the donors started. It's just a TOTAL failure on Sterk's part.

I mean I'm not even going to renew if it's most of these guys but I'll at least avoid actively rooting against Missouri. Yeah, some of these guys are going to fail - most of them might. But what the hell is the point if it's Willie Fritz, Troy Calhoun or {barf} Jim McElwain.

Either he's not trying or he was IMMEDIATELY blown out of the water by all these guys we've mentioned. And if the latter is the case, he HAS know that before he fires Odom. He has to have a better understanding of how attractive this program is. That's his !@#$ing job. You just cannot overstate how poorly he's handled this.
