I see where Hemenway cost KU a big research grant two months ago. Nice job.

Glad you think THuggins was a good hire. Many KSU fans and most of the nation view KSU as a pathetic institution tha sold its' soul to get a few W's. Let's see how much you like the hire in a few years.

"Research grant" is sucking at the teet of the guvmint. Fewer the better. The results of the research is almost always, "we need more money to study the affects of coffee drinking; softer toilet paper; why your kid is so stoopid; why your and idiot and I'm a genious, blah, blah, blah)."

At least MU is going in the right direction.

Still don't think Mike Anderson was a good hire, regardless of what their record is against poor teams.

Pinkel needs to go, end of story.

Santa came early.

Time to close the door and move on.

Speaking of MU, how are the bowl tickets selling? I heard under 2k were sold, and students get free tickets, and very reduced lodging and travel.

Yeah it's getting pretty desperate. I dont know anyone in Columbia thats going to this game. Fans around here are so fed up with Pinkel and the way the program just died in mid season that no one wants to spend the time and energy to watch MU get their asses kicked.

I think the deal was is that for MU students, $100 would get you a ticket to the game, travel (chartered bus), and a hotel room.

I know a good portion of Mizzou fans are buying their tickets directly through the Sun Bowl ...because the best seats weren't available through the MU ticket office.

There will be more than 2k Mizzou fans there.

CoMoChief:

Have you watched Mizzou play with Anderson? Why is he a mistake? Who, available, would have been better?

Yea, universities routinely poo-poo losing 17 million in grant money. Nice job by Chancellor Hemenway.
