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.

Jimmy Swain: **** LB, Lee's Summit, MO

Maty Mauk is the future at quarterback for Missouri, and after starter James Franklin left Saturday 's upset win at Georgia, it appears that the future is now. Franklin exited the game with a shoulder injury , which CBS Sports' Bruce Feldman reports is a Grade 2 separation that will keep him out for a minimum of six weeks

#Mizzou QB James Franklin is expected to be out for at least the next 6 wks, probably longer w a Grade 2 shoulder separation, per source. 4:36 PM - 12 Oct 2013 Bruce Feldman @BFeldmanCBS

Mauk entered the game in the fourth quarter and did just enough to salt the victory , completing all three of his passes for 23 yards and rushing for 12 more. The Tigers improved to 6-0, and anyone who is undefeated this late in the season needs to be considered a genuine BCS threat. But with a redshirt freshman that's barely played at this level being forced to start at quarterback for the foreseeable future, will Missouri be able to overcome the odds and compete in the SEC? Let's meet the man whose play might decide the answer.

As a Prospect

The younger brother of Ben Mauk, a successful quarterback at Cincinnati, Maty was a one of the best players in Ohio during his time at Kenton High School. He was a 4-star prospect on the 247 Sports composite in 2012, ranking No. 319 in the nation and No. 7 among dual-threat quarterbacks. Of the six players listed ahead of him at the position, only two—Jameis Winston and Tommy Armstrong—have made a tangible impact at the FBS level. But others like Chad Kelly at Clemson and Cyler Miles at Washington are stuck behind great quarterbacks and might have a chance to soon. Being ranked so highly was a vote of confidence in Mauk, whom scouts saw as a dynamic athlete with size enough (6'2'', 200 lbs.) to become a productive college QB. Notre Dame and Michigan, two of America's biggest recruiting powerhouses, both offered him a scholarship in addition to Missouri and seven other schools. ESPN's Recruiting Nation lauded Mauk's competitiveness and intangibles, but took issue with his footwork and throwing mechanics:
Fundamentally Mauk needs refinement to enhance accuracy and consistent footwork...
He has a quick delivery and the ball really pops off his hand, but you do notice him cock the ball back prior to delivery which is wasted motion...
After redshirting last season, Mauk has now been coached up for more than a year. If Missouri's staff has done a good job fixing those problems—which usually come with time for young QBs—there's no reason Mauk can't run the offense. It seems unthinkable now, after watching how well Franklin performed this season, but Mauk had a chance to seize the starting job out of fall camp. That's how much Missouri likes him. Head coach Gary Pinkel opened up the starting job in the preseason, giving Mauk and fellow backup Corbin Berkstresser a chance to unseat Franklin. Obviously that didn't happen, but the way
Franklin was playing, a lot of capable players would have failed to beat him for a job.
And the fact that Mauk earned second-string duty over Berkstresser, an older and more
experienced player, is quite encouraging.
Of Mauk's offseason work ethic and improvement, offensive coordinator Josh Henson had this to say , according to Terez A. Paylor of the Kansas-City Star:
I saw the kid in here all summer long. Whenever I came in the office, he was in here
watching film, studying and learning plays and looking at reads and different defenses.
So I think the kid really committed himself to the mental part of the game. That effort was rewarded when, according to the program's official website, he was named the
spring's most improved QB. But it's not just coaches who have confidence in Mauk; his teammates have faith in him too. After the length of Franklin's injury was announced, Missouri's star receiver L'Damian Washington expressed his support of the young QB:
L Washington on Mauk: "I've got faith in Maty Mauk. ...He's going to step up. He has to lead this team right now. He doesn't have a choice."
Now it's time for Mauk to reward their faith and prove them right.

Can He Keep Missouri in the SEC Title Hunt?
It's tough to say how Mauk will fare this season.
Little was expected from Missouri in 2013, so in truth, the Tigers are playing with house
money . Unless things go horribly off the rails, this year should still be considered a success. Still, after watching them dismantle No. 7 Georgia on the road, it's hard not to dream big about the Tigers. They have enough offensive talent to go up with anyone in America, and the defense makes timely stops when it needs to.

Here is Missouri's remaining schedule:
Missouri Remaining
Schedule
Date Opponent
Oct. 19 vs. Florida
Oct. 26 vs. South Carolina
Nov. 2 vs. Tennessee
Nov. 9 at Kentucky
Nov. 23 at Ole Miss
Nov. 30 vs. Texas A&M
Source: ESPN
Missouri gets the three hardest teams on its schedule—Florida, South Carolina and Texas A&M—in Columbia, where a solid home crowd should give it an advantage. It also gets a bye before its toughest road game, at Ole Miss, which will help it out dearly in Oxford.
Mauk won't need to set the world on fire to navigate that docket. He has enough talent around him in Washington, Dorial Green-Beckham, Henry Josey , Russell Hansbrough and Marcus Murphy to merely manage the offense and keep drives moving.

His ability to scramble should be his best friend in the early going, especially next week against Florida, when broken plays will be needed against one of America's best defenses. And getting three home games in a row before having to start on the road should prepare him to keep succeeding. That Mauk is so mobile should help the offense keep continuity . It ran a spread-option attack under Franklin and won't need to alter that game-plan now that Franklin is gone. The wheels will keep on turning; just now, there's a new driver behind the wheel. With a less favorable schedule, the answer to this question might be an easy "no." Mauk wouldn't be able to lead this team on an SEC-title pursuit; he's not ready to be thrown into the fire and beat multiple ranked teams on the road. But with all of his biggest games at home and an early jump on Mizzou's SEC East competitors—all of whom have at least one conference loss—there's a chance Mauk can keep Cinderella dancing.

That run by Murphy was awesome.

They also just need to change the name of the Weekly SEC Defensive Lineman award to the Michael Sam Award.

kchero · 10-13-2013, 06:00 AM

I know with franklin out it really puts us in a tougher spot, but to be a legitimate threat in the sec and able to make a run in the east makes me so damn proud of our team. I know mauk hasn't started yet, and I don't want to have a "what if" mentality, but this is bittersweet.
