visiting other programs with all their bells & whistles. They can add those bells & whistles because their donations are far higher by the rank & file fans. It’s not even close.

Let’s hire a proven head coach...come to Mizzou where you won’t get the support from your everyday fans. We have the expectations of the top 5 schools...unfortunately, that won’t show up in our giving or support. Hopefully, our version of Boone Pickens will fall from the sky & do our job for us.

Please explain why this message is being reported.

The thinking you display - Mizzou Guru SEMO - 9/24 22:43:08

No other school in our conference would have Odom back after - Emoji Man MSU - 9/25 05:54:36

None would have hired him to begin with, there is that...(nm) - tigersfan MU - 9/25 06:11:13

Is this Gabe dude a beaker? (nm) - Evenflow MU - 9/24 21:26:10

If I had to bet, I would bet that Odom is coach next year.(nm) - Tiger_1995 MU - 9/24 21:26:08

season ticket cancellations will skyrocket. NM - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 21:38:56

I'll still buy tickets but being at the games isn't nearly - MKrip MU - 9/24 22:14:19

I don't see the point in keeping him. - MKrip MU - 9/24 21:15:25

if it's that clear, why hasn't Sterk fired him?(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:24:53

Each embarrassing loss powers his decision, just like KA - MoGold MU - 9/24 22:02:45

I'm sure he has his reasons and they likely have nothing to - MKrip MU - 9/24 21:47:58

I'm sure you'll find a way to convince yourself - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:50:13

I never said Sterk would fire him after this year. - MKrip MU - 9/24 22:08:38

It's a safe prediction, but he's probably wrong (nm) - Yosa125 TAMU - 9/24 21:13:56

Gabe D is frequently wrong. (nm) - AndyTiger MU

- 9/24 21:13:40

He says stupid crap to get eyeballs on his site - Roberts MU - 9/25 09:13:54

Sterk said he expects at least 6 wins. If he doesn't fire BO - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 21:12:23

Another day over 60 votes. Impressive. - Gary P. MU - 9/24 21:29:12

check below - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:31:56

Why can't we? (nm) - Fourth and Long MU - 9/24 21:55:00

why couldn't Alabama be as good as us in 2013?(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:56:50

They must have more top 5 finishes during the past decade. - Gary P. MU - 9/24 21:50:34

the recency bias among these stupid ****s is remarkable - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:52:36

Sterk claimed he never said that. Said that 6 wins... - Deputy Dawg MU - 9/24 21:21:29

he will only look like a fool - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:13:17

Odom isn't going to win 3 or 4 games. - AndyTiger MU

- 9/24 21:13:11

he should be if progress is made - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:08:25

Progress would be 5 wins, with the 7 losses being - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 21:13:44

How much you contributing, JT? Anything or simply pecking - Gary P. MU - 9/24 21:25:05

Our AD budget is in the top 30 nationally, so why is neither - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 21:41:57

Football budget is bottom 4 in SEC - ScottsdaleTiger MU - 9/24 23:04:02

Oh my...Exhibit A: - Gary P. MU - 9/24 21:51:37

well, historically I would say we're right around #30 for - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:46:33

No, we would have at least one Final Four in BB and at least - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 22:47:56

Are you seeing a rulebook nobody else is? You keep - Gary P. MU - 9/24 22:55:09

well, that's not up to you to decide, son(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:18:12

Fortunately, Sterk has already told us what he expects. NM - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 21:19:27

you're about as informed as usual, I see - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:20:17

Judging by his response in that thread, you’re wasting - Gary P. MU - 9/24 21:27:07

What did you expect Sterk to say at that point? "Yes, Gabe, - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 21:25:34

Apathy. I've said it before. Apathy is the biggest - jonesin - 9/24 21:04:28

you are one of the most apathetic posters on this board(nm) - recruiter MU

- 9/24 21:29:03

Not at all. I Have empathy to support this university again. - jonesin - 9/24 21:39:09

Yep, we have the lowest expectations of any school in the... - Deputy Dawg MU - 9/24 21:09:23

Unless & until fans step up, we’ll continue at the current - Gary P. MU - 9/24 21:21:56

Our AD budget is in the top half of P5 schools... - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 21:37:28

You avoided my question earlier...do you give to TSF? - Gary P. MU - 9/24 23:21:04

Yes. To the nearest tenth of a percent, how much do you - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/25 03:36:22

RE: Our AD budget is in the top half of P5 schools... - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:49:41

But its not the kids, its the people with the $$$ to - jonesin - 9/24 21:12:46

why should Mizzou be an elite football program? - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:12:14

Better question: Why shouldn't we be? Maybe "elite" was... - Deputy Dawg MU - 9/24 21:26:54

did I not just give two reasons that are pretty valid? - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:30:33

You build it, take a legit stab with a legit HC, and the $$$ - jonesin - 9/24 21:15:42

how much are you donating to the TSF? - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:18:57

Even if he donated $50,000 per year, what difference would - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 21:45:39

RE: Even if he donated $50,000 per year, what difference would - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:48:10

Why are we underachieving in football? NM - JoplinTiger07 MU - 9/24 22:50:29

Why would anyone support this university in its current - jonesin - 9/24 21:29:22

we had apathy during 12-2 seasons(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:07:35

Not from many fans you didn't. nm - jonesin - 9/24 21:16:34

sure, fans were excited - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:19:18

Wrong. I bet if you were to go back after those seasons... - Deputy Dawg MU - 9/24 21:32:12

where were they up compared to the teams we're competing - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:33:25

We won a couple SEC East Division titles after that 12-2... - Deputy Dawg MU - 9/24 21:41:34

They recruited. Tough to compete when those recruits are - Gary P. MU - 9/24 23:08:09

so we're paying the price for Pinkel & staff not recruiting - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:42:40

& worse, vs. SEC schools. Every year that goes by, we fall - Gary P. MU - 9/24 21:38:02

Then why the fvck don't we just join the MAC and - jonesin - 9/24 21:36:40

of course I was excited, but I heeded Gary Pinkel's words - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 9/24 21:41:26

I was pumped but people here were saying they were going to - Gary P. MU - 9/24 21:39:13

Then, by very definition, you are agreeing that "apathy" - jonesin - 9/24 21:49:19

Maybe it is not Sterk's decision(nm) - Rocket Man UT - 9/24 21:03:57

BOC has to make the call as buyout would be about $1.2 - TigerMatt STL - 9/24 22:23:21

100 million tends to get you a say in the decision, id bet. - josey-wales MU - 9/24 21:30:38

Thats what I believe too. nm - jonesin - 9/24 21:05:14
