****Official 2018 Missouri Tigers Football Thread****

[DJ's left nut]

Brady Cook is the top rated QB in the state next year and has already committed to Missouri.

At first blush Cook doesn't jump out.

But after the Mertz fiasco, they aren't talking chances. If there's a rising 3 star junior their gonna jump all over him in case that senior break out makes them look like dicks again.

Gonna end up with more Powell's than Locks, but they only need every third guy to hit...

It's hard to overstate how poor a job they've done with QBs since Odom was hired. Bryant is a stay of execution but Bazelak had better be a ballplayer...

[Mike in SW-MO]

Well that's encouraging.

[Pitt Gorilla]

Should it have taken 3 years to finally get a win against a ranked opponent?

No, asking for the occasional quality victory isn't too terribly much. That win was little more than "about !@#$ing time..." and doesn't do much of anything to erase the abortions at SC or against KY.

I'm not even as inclined as most are to give him a pass for UGA. Mizzou had as much talent on the field as Georgia that day and just kept shooting themselves in the foot.

But I tell ya what - if Odom can MAINTAIN the talent at this level, okay. That's a team with an annual 7 win floor with 11 win and conference championship potential. He'll coach them into 2 losses most seasons, but the talent level is there to hang with anyone.

I just don't think he has the recruiting chops to keep this up. It doesn't matter what I think - he's getting extended. At this point the only real question to ask is who turns out to be correct...he replaced lock and hall in a single day. I know it’s only a year, but those guys could have gone just about anywhere. Odom brought them to Mizzou.

Can you expand more on Mertz? I'm good friends with a coach of his. Basically Wisconsin was the first to identify him and hes a loyal kid. He wasnt going to budge unless Stanford offered.

This will likely get me banned from the thread but here it is... Bryant is a better fit FOR THE COLLEGE GAME. Hell of a get by Odom.

['Hamas' Jenkins]

I don't think they really replaced Hall. He's as good of a deep threat as they've ever had.

[duncan_idaho]

Yeah, Nance is not a hall replacement. He’s a experienced vet who can fill the role Nate Brown did this year.

They’ll need one of the young guys - Kam Scott, Jaylen Knox - to take a step forward as a playmaker.

Even so they’ll miss Hall. Bryant is not a big downfield thrower, though, from what I can tell.

[DJ's left nut]

You're overstating Nance's ability.

If he catches more than 20 passes next year it's a bad sign for the rest of the offense. We have 3 and maybe 4 guys with more raw talent than him already on the roster and a couple of incoming freshman that probable do as well.

He's not even the talent Darius White was and White had a transfer season and 2 full seasons after that to finally get to 30 catches as a SR. Nance had 1 catch in 4 games this year.

Ideally he's 4th on the depth chart; maybe the #2 at the X or something. We don't want him being more than that.

Looked like a basic 3 star kid but was the best QB in the area. Mizzou ignored him, Wisconsin didn't and as a SR he exploded.

Had mizzou done with him what they're doing with Cook, we'd have arguably the best QB recruit in the nation on campus next year. A Lock level prospect anyway.

Mizzou's staff was lazy and complacent with a local kid and it burned them.

I’ve heard this from some KC area football coaches that currently have legitimate division 1 recruits playing for them. Odom’s team has had little presence in KC.

[bowener]

Is Bryant legit enough of a player that Mizzou could potential sneak a victory away from Bama in the SEC Championship? Bama always seems to have a game a season where they don't play to their full potential and it bites them in the ass with a loss they shouldn't have taken.

No. Mizzou D could not get enough stops on the Bama O to make that happen not matter how good Bryant is. Lock is the better QB and he could not get it done.

[DJ's left nut]

They seem to be operating under the presumption that they're just going to be in on anybody from KC given the down nature of the Kansas programs.

But they're ignoring the fact that the top talent in the area is getting pursued by the Big 10 and other B12 schools as well. Maybe losing Finley's ties in TX will convince them that they need to strengthen some local ties as well.

It's been frustrating to see their relative lack of success in locking down their own borders. They have a lot of advantages there that they're not using well at all.

LMAO We couldn't even beat Kentucky in that scenario with a better QB.

[DJ's left nut]

No. Mizzou D could not get enough stops on the Bama O to make that happen not matter how good Bryant is. Lock is the better QB and he could not get it done.

Lock's a different QB but in some ways Bryant can be better than him.

Lock's more aggressive; makes more splash plays but also more poor decisions. Now against 'Bama maybe that's the better route, but Bryant's less likely to make those god-awful decisions that we've seen from Lock too often.

Lock's a better pro prospect for sure, but Bryant could easily be as good or better as a college QB. Mizzou's not going into Alabama and beating them. Ever. But on a neutral site with a couple of good breaks, they could steal one. Again - they played Georgia to a near draw and just made too many mistakes in the process. They had the talent to win that game, they just didn't play their best game. And Georgia had 'Bama on the ropes.

If someone like Johnson or Knox takes a step forward, Albert O comes back and the DBs develop just a little more - they'd be in a situation where their BEST game could be Alabama if Alabama wasn't in top form. It's not likely, but its not impossible.

The problem is that they have GA on the road next year. That's going to be a huge hurdle for them.

[DJ's left nut]

LMAO We couldn't even beat Kentucky in that scenario with a better QB.

They didn't beat Kentucky. But they absolutely could have. And there's no question that they SHOULD have.

Again - the question is whether or not Mizzou could go steal one; not if they'd simply be the better team. Can Mizzou go out there with a little development and take that squad, play their best game and beat 'Bama? No, not if 'Bama plays their best game as well. But if they aren't sharp? Sure, that could happen. Especially if they can somehow get Graves in here and he gives them the pass rush and ability to create problems on the DL that they'll lose with Beckner leaving.

I'd say it puts them in the conversation as among the top 20 teams in the nation heading into next season. When you're there, you're one or two breakout players away from being a top 10 squad. If you're a top 10 squad, you can beat anyone in the country if you're playing your best game and they aren't on top of theirs.

It perplexes me because regardless of the level of program your number one priority in recruiting should be to lock down your home state....especially a state like Missouri, which has legit high school talent every year.

[O.city]

So, is Beckner an option for the Chiefs in the draft?

[DJ's left nut]

So, is Beckner an option for the Chiefs in the draft?

He should be. I'm not sure he got himself into 1st round consideration and by the 2nd round weird stuff just happens; guys slide sometimes and you can't figure out why.

If he fell to one of the picks in the 2nd I'd take him in a heartbeat. What would worry me about him in the 1st is that there's some Jones in his game; disappears for stretches. And his injury history isn't great.

If the Chiefs are sitting at 32 with their premium need/talent combinations already off the board, they could do worse than take a chance on Beckner and rely on that 5th year option giving them enough time to iron out the rough edges. If you get him focused, he has the ability to wreck shit just like Jones does.

I like the guy a lot and I like how the Tigers have moved him in and out a bit so he has some versatility there. He can do a lot of things from anchoring the point of attack to splitting the gap and attacking. But/for the focus concerns I have he's a clear 1st round pick. If given enough time, I could be probably be convinced to take him in the 1st anyway depending on the board at the time.

I was kind of wondering if he could replace Bailey. Put him next to Ford and see what happens.

He's such an athlete, some might see him undersized a bit, but I think in today's NFL, he could really play in there.

Agree; he'd be Bailey's replacement.

Well, I mean, in my world he'd play alongside Jones on the interior w/ Houston and Speaks on the ends. That might not be quite enough mass but I think I'm past the point of caring now. If you play a team with a serious rush offense - scheme and sell out to stop it. Otherwise just find athletes that can create havok. I guess.

I'm just tired of seeing our DL force a hole only to watch our LBs take themselves out of it. My frustration with the rank incompetence of our ILBs and safeties would almost certainly have me doing stupid things going forward.

"FUCK IT!! 3 DTs and 8 cornerbacks!! I'm tired of these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane!!"

[duncan_idaho]

I know the staff has been frustrated on the return on investment for local recruits compared to resources invested. They’ve at least unconsciously shifted some focus as a result, I think.

In KC, part of the issue is that Andy Hill is near the end of the road and just doesn’t go as hard as he used to.

Re: Mertz, Heupel was the main roadblock there. He didn’t want Mertz at all, which delayed Mizzou until it was too late.

In-state recruiting success usually goes hand-in-hand with success and longevity for Mizzou. Odom getting this extension and getting to 9+ wins next year (possible with schedule) would be a boon, I think.

I’m getting a little bit of a 2007 vibe from the current team. Could see 2019 being that type of step forward for Odom.

Seems like they are unwilling to do some of the foundation building that Pinkel excelled at. Watching them just kinda quit on Georgia when it was difficult to get started and scramble back to Texas was frustrating.

I know why they did it - Texas was so fertile for them and they had a nice fallback there; getting back in was going to pay immediate dividends at a time that immediate dividends were needed. It was arguably even the right decision to make in many ways. But there was a reason they got into GA (and FL) in the first place; they know the SEC brand carries weight there and the talent is immense. To just chuck all those reasons because it was hard was a red flag, IMO.

They don't have a very good ground game, to my eyes. I could be being too hard on them but they just don't have a lot of people that seem to relish the yeoman's work. They sure love sending out that "To the ZOU!" tweet every few weeks but I get the impression that making the phonecalls to coaches that get you in their good graces is just not high on their priority list.

[ChiefsCountry]

Kansas City just doesn't have the numbers of high end Division 1 talent that St. Louis has. It's crazy to see the recruiting in both cities. The mid-major talent in Kansas City is very high, while St. Louis it's the opposite. It's crazy to see.

[kepp]

Both those guys, especially Knox, showed big play abilities this year. I think we're in good shape.

BenFred: Mizzou gains more than a quarterback in Clemson transfer Kelly Bryant

His bullet points:

1. Mizzou answered its scariest question about 2019

2. The Tigers advance with a been-there, done-that leader

3. This offense has a ton of potential

4. The recruiting ripple is real

5. Odom just won a heavyweight fight

I believe that puts him as the 11th highest paid head coach in the SEC. He was dead last.

Assistant pool:

Missouri’s assistant coaching pool is $4.38 million, according to a recent USA Today poll, which puts the Tigers No. 20 nationally and No. 10 among SEC schools. Athletics department spokesperson Nick Joos said that Mizzou agreed to raise Odom’s assistant coach salary pool but did not disclose a number

[Titty Meat]

That's basically it.

Looked like a basic 3 star kid but was the best QB in the area. Mizzou ignored him, Wisconsin didn't and as a SR he exploded.

To be fair Mertz was a backup at Miege because the kid infront of him was a baller. I think he went to play baseball at Notre Dame.

You were also in on Martinez. Hes going to be on the Heisman watch list in 2 years watch.

So you cant get down on your staff too much. With the raise in pool money you really should be able to get s guy who can lockdown the KC area and tap into all the JUCO talent in Kansas.

They’re going all in for 2019. They see that schedule and realize it’s set up for a run at an access Bowl.

Thomas’ dynamic gamebreaking ability would add something at WR and in the return game. Having a WR who is a threat to take short routes the distance would help
Make up for Lock-you-Bryant dip in deep ball passing.

Good Lord. How hard is it to just be good lol. Says he was arrested at 6am. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but id say alcohol was probably involved. It amazes me all the problems alcohol is attributed and it's completely legal, but smoking some weed is against the law in most places. Hell alcohol is one of the worst drugs out there, but gets a free pass.

[DJ's left nut]

The story goes that Mizzou isn't interested in him if he's not eligible. If he can't get a waiver, they're not gonna risk giving him a scholarship and then watching him sit out and go pro in 2020.

They'd burn up a scholarship for nothing at that point.

So the conversation won't begin here unless he can secure an eligibility waiver for the 2019 season.

They’re requesting a hardship. He has a family situation.

Graves would give this team the first elite pass rusher since Harris. Given how the post-Kul ends have fizzled, that's almost as big as Bryant.

That would be a big addition.

The Tigers missed on QBs in the 16, 17, and 18 classes. Adding Bryant and Robinson would basically erase those misses without them ever affecting the team.

[Pitt Gorilla]

So his coaching decisions are dumb enough to lose us 2 easily winnable games in SC and UK and him and his staff can't recruit the most important position in football? Sounds like a winner for sure. Drew Lock stays another year, probably saving his job, and how does he thank him? Hiring that dumb motherfucker Derek Dooley to hurt his draft stock.
Recruits are really interested in playing in Dooley’s offense and he’s winning people over on the recruiting trail.

You have a lot of shitty takes, but this one may take the cake.

Quite a bit of commitment stuff happening today/yesterday.

Interesting kid: niko Hea of CBC in St. Louis. TE. Didn’t camp at all, didn’t get the ball much as a junior because CBC had Cam Brown and Kam Babb. He had no junior tape.

He’s currently an unranked prospect, but his tape really pops out (his speed/agility and open-field ability are rare attributes for a TE).

I think he’s going to be another diamond-in-the-rough story a few years down the road.

At least one will stick around to be Bryant’s backup, I’d think. Bazelak and Robinson both will be redshirting, I think.

Would guess Wilson may stick one more year, then grad transfer.

They have Brady Cook in the 2020 class.

Every other QB on the roster is free to GTFO. Wilson, Lowary, Powell and that kid from Louisiana can go off to some FBS school where their talents will actually play.

I still can't believe how badly they let that quarterback pool degrade. What a shit show.

It was a bad combination. Pinkel’s staff was kind of complacent heading into 2015/2016. Then the protests and coaching change happened (which basically burned the ability to close strong in 2016 class). Then the 2017 class and 2018 class and even 2019 were heavily impacted by Heupel’s QB recruiting, which was shitty.

I like where it’s headed now, though. They’re still trying on the IMG academy QB, Baldwin, too, for the 2019 class.

Cook is also a good prospect for 2020.

As for the 2019 season, I’d like to see at least one of the current QBs on the roster stick just to have a backup option if something happens to Bryant. Not sure if that’s Powell or Wilson.

[blake5676]

Any word on Chester Graves? Does a JUCO transfer have a different signing date than a regular HS kid? Would be a massive get if we could land him. Either way, I'm semi-impressed with Odom and this current crop.

Isn't that a probable outcome for Ferguson as well? I thought I read that the reason he isn't signing early is that there are some significant qualification issues to overcome.

I'm sorry but I've seen them interview some of the folks that matriculate through the blue bloods...those guys must have a staff that's a LOT better at getting guys eligible because I'm pretty sure most some of them can't sign their own names.

Yet we constantly seem to be dealing with a handful of players that are gonna struggle to get by the clearinghouse.

It's been since his Sr year in hs since I was a part of this conversation, but the kid was always going to be a qualification issue, and to make it worse, he just doesn't love football (or at least that was the case then. Maybe it has change, now). So there wasn't as big an incentive for him to work hard to get eligible.

It looks like Penn State with gold trim, if Penn State was lame enough to use some ancient cartoon lion logo that had the mumps and a silly hat. I don't know what the hell is wrong with you people.

Ah, so it is. I like that helmet a lot and think it should be default.

Just hate the double sided logo helmets.

[Jimkcchief88]

How is this NOT "goofy shit"? It's not a throwback. That ghastly ****tarded logo NEVER appeared on a Missouri helmet before. If they were actually going back to the look of the early 60s uniforms it would be one thing. This is a completely different, awful thing.

The logo sucks. White on white sucks. It especially sucks with white helmets. It looks like Penn State with gold trim, if Penn State was lame enough to use some ancient cartoon lion logo that had the mumps and a silly hat. I don't know what the hell is wrong with you people. What they've done this year is Oregon shit (mercifully) without the neon puke colors.

Maybe that will come next year.

Agreed. Some throwbacks are cool, others should be left alone. The M on the helmet? Works anytime. The Cat on crack uniforms? Couldn’t be taken seriously and I’ll bet OSU was emboldened by those ridiculous uni’s. Then the defense goes out and gives up 38 points and over a 100 yards to the backup RB.

Dude. No football team on earth has their play affected by theirs or their rivals' helmet logo. Seriously. The Oregon Ducks are a thing. The Miami Dolphins exist.

Obviously thins out the RB corps, but after his freshman season I thought he was going to be the best back in school history. He never hit that level of production again.

Probably need to get a RB in the late period now, as there are no others in the class.

Will having a dual-threat QB help the thin RB corp?

I heard the other day he practiced throughout the bowl leadup, then the night before the game, in the hotel, told the coaches he was done and entering the draft. Anyone else hear that story?

I wouldn’t call the RB depth thin.

Badie and Rountree are excellent returners, and Bhakare looked good in his few short stints, too.

They also have an incoming freshman from Texas that I think is going to be awesome - get some Josh Jacobs vibes from him.

I'm not sure Mizzou could've shown up to the hearing and confessed to ordering a code red and been worse off.

Seriously - this is simply a wholesale repudiation of any kind of defense Mizzou put forward. Had Mizzou come out and said "yeah, Odom, Jamieson and Earleywine were all telling tutors to do the coursework at the guidance of Jim Sterk" I'm not sure the penalties would've been any more severe.

1 tutor and 12 kids over 3 sports and they drop a fucking hammer. I really don't get it. That's remarkably draconian for what amounts to relatively minor academic eligibility crap. When you look at the shady shit all these teams do to get kids eligible to sign to begin with and the NCAA looks the other way, it blows my mind that they put Mizzou on blast for this.

I'm not even mad as much as I'm just damn puzzled.

[siberian khatru]

Un. Fucking. Believable.

All this for one rogue tutor.

A former University of Missouri, Columbia, tutor violated NCAA ethical conduct, academic misconduct and academic extra benefits rules when she completed academic work for 12 student-athletes, according to a Division I Committee on Infractions panel.

Although the tutor said she felt pressure to ensure student-athletes passed courses, according to the committee’s report, the investigation did not support that her colleagues directed her to complete the student-athletes’ work.

In its decision, the committee stated, “Simply put, 12 student-athletes did not complete their own work.” It continued that the tutor engaged in the activity despite receiving extensive and comprehensive education on appropriate tutoring practices.

UNC had systemic FAKE COURSES, but because these FAKE COURSES were provided to non-athletes, no sanction.

Jamaal Charles maintained eligibility at UT for 3 seasons and he is literally stupid enough to be declared mentally retarded and be allowed to participate in the Special Olympics because of it. LITERALLY.

Man, they must have some fucking fantastic tutors at UT.

Oh wait, no - that's not right. Because Jamaal still couldn't string consecutive thoughts together when he left.

Keeping athletes eligible by hook or by crook has been a time honored tradition for every Division 1 program for decades. It's the rolling a stop sign of the NCAA Guidelines. It's going 5 over in a 55. Nobody has ever given a fuck.

But because UNC embarrassed the shit out of the NCAA with their "well yeah, but ALL of our students have an opportunity to get a meaningless degree" defense and Mizzou's attorneys were stupid enough to concede that she committed an honor code violation in their responses, the NCAA used them to make an example of.

Just remarkable really.

[CoMoChief]

The shit at UNC happened for years yet they didn’t get punished.

I know. Its ridiculous.

I've had friends that went to class at KU with Brandon Rush, told me the guy literally couldnt read and went to class maybe once a week if that. Not sure how the guy stays academically eligible if hes in college and cant read and doesnt go to class.

It may help with the appeal a little, but I’m not holding my breath. NCAA has a history of enforcing minor crap with heavy consequences against schools that it doesn’t see as ‘necessary’. It’s why they’ve looked the other way with some schools (UNC), minor slap on the wrist for some (LSU), and outright obliviousness with others. Both of the above were far worse with academic fraud then anything that happened at Mizzou with this latest deal.

It’s why the NCAA is seen as a complete joke and a corrupt organization. I hope Sterk takes em down to the mat and attempts to bury them with all their hypocrisy. Get it into federal court if you have to. Put the NCAA on blast and tell all that schools are finally done with this bullshit.

Some program has needed to do it for years, but no one has had the balls to take it all the way. Might as well be Mizzou. I mean, what have they got to lose at this point?

Skin that slimy fucker alive. NCAA needs the FIFA treatment.

[Titty Meat]

While I'm sure yall would take great enjoyment in this happening to my team I'll be real with you. You guys got fucked. This is the last thing MU needs.

The fucked up thing is the year KU won the title I had a friend who was a tutor and did shit for Arthur all the time. Shit Rush paid people to do his hw.

[Buehler445]

I'm not sure Mizzou could've shown up to the hearing and confessed to ordering a code red and been worse off.

Seriously - this is simply a wholesale repudiation of any kind of defense Mizzou put forward. Had Mizzou come out and said "yeah, Odom, Jamieson and Earleywine were all telling tutors to do the coursework at the guidance of Jim Sterk" I'm not sure the penalties would've been any more severe.

1 tutor and 12 kids over 3 sports and they drop a fucking hammer. I really don't get it. That's remarkably draconian for what amounts to relatively minor academic eligibility crap. When you look at the shady shit all these teams do to get kids eligible to sign to begin with and the NCAA looks the other way, it blows my mind that they put Mizzou on blast for this.

I'm not even mad as much as I'm just damn puzzled.

ROFL

Again - this is so ludicrous that I can't even get mad. It is just outright hilarious.

Lie for over a decade, get caught and defend yourselves on the grounds that "We didn't violate our academic standards because we don't actually have any..." and you're golden.

Fucking self report and say "yes, she violated our academic standards but against the training she was provided and without express direction from anyone associated with the University of Missouri" and you get a 3-sport post-season ban.

Even Kansas fans have to look at this one and shake their heads. I mean it truly is just unreal.

Yeah, as a KU fan, I mean fuck Mizzou and all, but Christ almighty what a joke this is after MU literally got fucking nothing.

I mean, Christ.

All I can say is, Sorry guys. Fuck the NCAA

Post em please.

I hate Missouri - but I feel like you guys got screwed.

You have to be a Blue Blood. Bama, Ohio State, Michigan, Texas, Kansas, UK, Duke, UNC. They'll all be fine.

We run this shit.

Wouldn't count on that.

If I were a betting man, I'd take the odds that KU gets hammered over the adidas FBI thing and Duke walks , even though they have recruits, 1,2,4 and Adidas guy tried to pay Zion 100 large and he ends up at Duke.

I'd bet money.

I think we'll slither out of it. Arizona will get hammered. They found out about Ayton and STILL played him.

We found out (at least based on what you can prove) about Billy Preston and held him out indefinitely. Our choice. We did the same thing with Silvio.

NCAA typically goes relatively lighter on those who self impose penalties or act like they give a shit.

Again - not sure what happened to MU. Seems they really got screwed here.

That's the biggest problem Mizzou ran into here.

Just big enough to 'make an example out of' but not big enough to unsettle a power balance among the blue bloods in the major revenue sports.

They're in the goldilocks zone for the NCAA. What a rat-fucking.

He isn't rescuing her he is telling people to stop threatening to kill her or telling her to kill herself. He is right. If you disagree with that then I'm not sure what is wrong with you, but I feel bad for you. She fucked up and she very well may fuck up some other people's lives, and she should be punished accordingly, but murder is not the answer.

Why did coach Kul leave Mizzou?

[duncan_idaho]

Why did coach Kul leave Mizzou?


Because he’s a giant baby.

He was incensed when Pinkel passed him over for the DC spot and hired Odom after Steckel left. He almost left that year to take the DL guy on an Illinois staff that was obviously in its last year. He didn’t speak to Odom the entire season he was coordinating the DL for him.

On his way out the door, he abused his relationship with a Non-recruiting coaching staff member to get a complete copy of the playbook in electronic form... and then sent copies to every other team in the SEC.

He’s an egotistical baby. There’s a reason he has not lasted anywhere since leaving Mizzou.

[DJ's left nut]

Kiper says he has Beckner Jr as a late Day 2 pick at this point.

If so, that'd be a nice use of our 3rd rounder provided...I think. He's a heck of a talent but I'm not sure he's a perfect fit for our DL. We need rotational depth there, though and if he's simply a sub-package player when we kick Jones out to DE in Nickel formations, that could be pretty handy.

I don't think he's quite explosive enough to be the strong side DE in a perfect world. He's really something of a poor man's Jones. But depending on the board at that point, I'd be hard pressed to pass on him; that would be a really nice value pick in the late 3rd, IMO.

In a sense of just putting as many dudes out there to rush the passer as I could, i'd take him.

Yeah, and if you subbed him in for Nnadi instead of kicking Jones out, your push up the middle would be pretty outstanding, especially if they can find a way to keep Ford here as a Leo.

He'd be a great rotational fit and that's a fine use of a 3rd round pick. I still don't know that I believe he'll be there in the late 3rd, though.

That's the MO of Spagnuolo. Why not if he's there
