None of this matters. Fire Pinkel.

That place would become a magnet for all the Whiteman kids interested in playing HS football with someone like Mauk coaching there. Might actually make my home town (sort of) team interesting to follow in football.

I wish he'd have gone to Saint Louis and helped funnel some players our way.

Springfield schools, really the entire SWMO region beside Lamar and Webb are talent deficient in my opinion. I watched GHS' two feeder middle schools this fall.. There isn't a lot coming in for them besides the youngest Leali brother and their high school roster isn't all that good either outside of a few multisport guys.

And that's skill positions. All the linemen in this region are too small and aren't adept enough at pass blocking for an offense to be effective.

But then again what do I know. I'm just a freelance hack writer and announcer.

Alabama has now offered 2** Mizzou commit Tavon Ross.

Wow. Everyone is jumping in on him. I hope we can keep him.

Georgia guys I've heard from seem to think he's staying with Mizzou, because his visit didn't go all that well in Athens.

Alabama is the question at this point... Pinkel visits him this week and I think his official is over the weekend.

Keeping Rocel McWilliams might be even more of a task at this point.

O.city · 01-20-2014, 11:29 AM

You guys would know better (specifically duncan or Hamas or DJ), but could one of you guys drop in the Maclin thread and talk a little about adding him in FA?

I remember him at MU, but not really specifically his abilitites.

SEC's best DEs.

Pretty amicable parting. I think once Bauer got back on board, Hudson was expendable. Mizzou coaches knew Hudson was looking around and didn't exactly beat down doors to stop it.

They'd rather use that spot on DE, it seems.

Yep. The extra scholarship was worth more than he was as a player. Sounds like he might have been a pain in the ass in addition to being a pretty weak recruit.

'Hamas' Jenkins · 01-21-2014, 04:35 PM

I have a feeling this guy will not be missed. Looks like an early add out of desperation rather than ability.

Things are still looking dicey, though. You'd think that coming off this season they'd have momentum to close on some kids.

They offered another kid from Gwinnett, I see. It would be nice if they could use he and Nate Brown as a lynchpin to bring along Dante Sawyer, especially if they lose McWilliams.

Sawyer, Scott and Brown will visit together. Forget if that is this week or next.

Things look pretty good with DE/OLB Vincent Jackson, who over the weekend tweeted to a friend (who is a Florida-bound) that he was looking forward to playing against him for 4 years. Missouri is Jackson's only SEC finalist, so that news looks pretty good (USF and Texas Tech are the others, I believe. He had an Alabama offer at one time, but they filled up).

They still have a chance to close pretty well. Comes down to spots and how well they do.

Keep McWilliams and Ross, add Jackson and a few others, and this could look very good.

Still pissed they couldn't close the door with Brian Wallace, though.

Bieliema must have given Wallace permission to bang his wife, why would that kid want to lose every week?
