He said he wouldn't name a guy until summer because it made no sense to have a new coach come in right before the spring game

It's not as easy now to use BB's system of finding athletic diamonds in the rough because not only is that all football is now... you also have to pay them to stay. That being said I still have a ton of faith in Bielema.

We were relatively depleted at the RB position. Lost Anderson before the season started. McCray and Love early. Laughery in and out of the lineup. Feagin was the feature because he was largely the only one healthy until he too got injured. Don't think last season was by design at all...

Fair. The college teams set up for success going forward are the ones that also invest into what is essentially a college football version of a General Manager. It's no longer just managing scholarships. Bret is smart and he knows what to do. It won't always be pretty, but the work is being...

I don't think he is either, and the rebuild is coming along fine. Every school suffers recruiting losses and it's hard to put into words just how poor recruiting was at the end of Lovie's time here. Sure he had 11 future draft picks on roster in 2020, but the outlook going forward was BLEAK...

I don't even want to think about who we would hire if Bret decides not to stick with it...

Eh the only thing that helps our recruiting right now is cold hard cash.

I mean there's no guarantee this works out for Mizzou. Once all these bought players dont get playing time they'll be bought by someone else too... I hope.

Well there goes the season I guess.

It's certainly set up that way, but it could be better.

Kids really gonna go 4 years with 4 different schools with 4 different coaches just to get a bag when 90% of them will never play football after college.

Stars are also take popularity into account somewhat. Witherspoon unrated because he really didn't play much football in high school, he obviously would have been rated pretty highly if more scouts and analysts had been in on him. This is why Bret's said multiple times in previous dressers that...

It's just so different. There's 85!!! Scholarship athletes on a football team. Most of them should stick with where they are... but they always get antsy because they wanna play.

Honestly kind of hope it works out would be a good story. We picked up some studs on the line, but that shouldn't cost him a shot at his dream.

Biased but UIC is the right choice... got my Criminology undergrad from there and it's paid dividends for my... insurance career.
