We'll see. Bazelak is not an answer at QB, and the D is at a historical nadir. If the team doesn't win six next year, it's a good indication that Drink is a fraud.

Sad but true
Football and basketball both are not Division 1. All the alumni $ will dead this program back.

The issue is not the conference in which Mizzou is affiliated. The issue is poor leadership and hires within the AD.
Mack Rhoades forced Pinkel out and made agreeing to dismantle the Total Person Program (led by Dr. Pat Ivey) one of the conditions for the new coach taking the job. This program, in addition to being coordinated with an elite strength and conditioning program, helped Mizzou develop its offensive and defensive linemen far beyond their recruiting rankings. That led to Barry Odom. Who was in over his head and recruited at the bottom of the league every year. (Speaking of Rhoades, that disaster also had no interest in hiring Tony Vitello as the baseball coach and instead hired Steve Beiser. Beiser has been bad, and Vitello has built Tennessee into an elite program in just a few short years. Just to re-iterate how awful he was). Drinkwitz was a step in the right direction and is recruiting well, but his reliance on NFL guys to run his defense has not worked so far. It may keep him from realizing the potential his recruiting ability provides. In basketball, the idiotic hiring of Frank Haith led to the even dumber hiring of the worst coach in modern Division 1 history. That's on Mike Alden in both cases. CuonzNO Martin was a mediocre hire who was severely overpaid, now has a contract that gives him absolute job security through at least the end of this season. No matter what conference you're in, if you hire the wrong people to run your programs, you're not going to be successful.

Drinkwitz is in over his head and more worried about what shoes he’s wearing…guy can recruit I’ll give him that but means **** all if you can’t do anything with them on Saturday.
I hope he proves me wrong… Burden is announcing on Tuesday, gonna be either Mizzou or UGA…interesting to see how that one falls. |

I missed this, but I definitely deserved to eat some crow from that. Kentucky is surprising a lot of people outside Kentucky. I think we saw they still aren’t a threat to win the East, but I think Georgia has a stronghold on that for awhile no matter what any of us do. |

Honestly can not believe they are this bad. And you get a lot of leeway around here we all know we are not going for a national championship but shit they don't look like division I athletes sometimes.
I had no idea the season would be this bad. |

What are the odds on Burden picking Mizzou tomorrow?
I know the football program looks like shit this season, but for the most part Drink has been knocking out of the park on recruiting. Very interested to see what happens there. They could use a dynamic receiver like him on offense. Would help Connor immensely! |

Well, it comes down to 2 things: 1) NIL. At Mizzou he has the opportunity to be THE guy for that type of stuff from Day 1. At UGA, he’s a face in the crowd. 2) Target share. UGA, for all its strengths, runs an antiquated style of offense that doesn’t throw the ball a lot.
