None of this matters. Fire Pinkel.

The starting front four will be fine, but what made the line great wasn't just having Sam and Ealy, but the depth provided by Ray and Golden. Before Foster's injury, the line was legitimately eight deep, and for a significant stretch of the season Ray was our best DL.

The red shirts are going to have to bring something next year or the DL will get gassed.

I had that exact thought when reading that article about the D-Line. The depth was what allowed Mizzou to bring the constant pressure, and as a result, keep the secondary from getting exposed.

That's why getting Dante Sawyer to flip on his official next weekend has to be the staff's #1 goal. He won't play as a true freshman, but he'd be another in the pipeline of long, rangy athletes who have been great ends at Missouri.

Missouri is in a weird place, recruiting wise. They are successful enough as a program that offering someone raises their profile to the point where traditional powers take notice--like what happened with Jonathan Williams and ND, but they aren't yet high profile or skilled enough to where they can beat out those schools for elite talent unless a lot of breaks fall their way (DGB and Sheldon being from Missouri, for example).

It's part of the development of the program. If Bielema can land Wallace by selling him on his ability to put O-linemen in the league, we need to get there with our ability to put the entire front seven in the league. It's scary how much defensive talent Mizzou has playing in the league. I wouldn't mind having Richardson, Smith, Smith, Spoon, Moore, Hood, Gaines, Ealy, and Sam on our roster.

Pinkel isn't the bloviating bullshit artist that most of these hucksters are. It hurts him in recruiting, but makes him a far more tolerable human being. That said, he should be able to confidently point out the recent run of success Missouri players have had on that side of the ball.

He's probably a bigger bullshitter than you think. The dude drops in via chopper when he wants to big time a kid, after all.

We still have a shot at Hendrix as well.

That's certainly been a recent point of emphasis on the recruiting trail. Hence the #MizzouMade hashtag on Twitter.

I will only support this movement if Earnest Ross uses hashtag #bitchmade.

Who cares about bowls, that's a truly shitty thing to do and anyone involved in a rape cover-up should be fired and criminally charged.

It's terrible and Alden should be fired. I'm sorry but I care about both. Athletes that had nothing to do with it might suffer. This is a bad deal, all around.
