Tony Adams decision at 6:30.
It's a little early to consider it "looking like a disaster"
Not a perfect analogy but for reference purposes Zook's 2007 class rated #21 by Rivals had exactly 3 commits at this same date in 2006. I realize Zook had been here for a few years and built relationships that were several years old but there is plenty of time to put together a good class
Long story short, I think about the ocean of goodwill Groce had after his first year on the job (JFG!) and the way he squandered it on desperate, short-term decision making for no apparent reason after whiffing on his initial recruiting targets. I sincerely hope Lovie doesn't make the same mistakes. I remain as much a believer as I was the day he was hired. But you don't make it happen by magic, it's a series of quality decisions, and they are going to have to start being made.
I just dont think we can really fret this class until much closer to signing day.
A lot of crystal balls for Jeff Thomas to Miznoz too:hurl:

Seems to be a lot of signs out there pointing to Adams to Mizzou
And Mizzou just has more helmet uniform swagger than we do
Balderdash.
Its the truth these kids like flash uniforms 29 duff helmets and uniforms....we have a new rebrand but only like 5 different uniforms.....kids Like their flash and to show it to social media....a lot of reasons
We've barely worn the same combo twice since the rebrand and they're all fresh as hell. Ours are as good as any modern uni set in the country.
Mizzou have a couple of pretty good combos, but some of the ones where they combine silver and gold are just heinous.
:hurl::hurl::hurl:
I just feel like we don't have great looking football swagger that makes kids wanna play here too....regardless that has a huge say in their recruitment...that's why a kid would wanna go to Boise st or Oregon hell even Washington has nice units smh
Hahaha I don't care what anyone says the all gray UNIs are just sick. We should wear that set up a lot more.
I wore an Illinois shirt to a UT game the first day we wore those. Some random UT guy was super complimentary of them. It was weird.
That's why a lot of kids commit to Mizzou over Illinois....the admissions...... And Mizzou just has more helmet uniform swagger than we do the kids love that as a committing cofactor
But last but not least the biggest college football stage seems to be the sec right now....Mizzou is struggling but they are in the s.e.c too many factors lol!
I think being a part of the SEC has something to do with it too, knowing you are getting on national TV more, even if it is to get your !!! kicked....
YES! And Mizzou doesn't belong in the sec they wanna be the south so bad...they shoulda joined the big ten...but its an easier academic school to get into
Seems to be a lot of signs out there pointing to Adams to Mizzou
