That's a record for false statements, even for you...

in just a brief 4 sentence post. Against my better judgment, but so everyone can see how you are just making stuff up now:

1. There was no "weird year long suspension by Rhodes while they studied whether to fire EE or not" in 2016.

2. EE was never suspended from his coaching duties at all.

3. There was no "year long" anything by Rhodes. From the time the investigation became public and players and coaches were notified and interviewed to the time it was resolved was a matter of several months.

4. The investigation in 2016 did not "kill his recruiting", at least not in a way that impacted the 2017 and 2018 rosters. The 2017 roster freshman class had already signed their LOIs in November 2015, and all of them showed up at Mizzou to honor those LOIs in August 2016. And all the freshmen in the 2018 class, all 11 of them, honored their previous verbal commitments by signing their LOIs in November 2016, several months after EE was retained. And they all showed up at school in August 2017, and are part of the current freshmen class on the roster.

You, and others, can argue that future recruiting classes have possibly been harmed by the negative publicity of the investigation, those kids who would be playing in the 2019 season and beyond. Pitcher Danielle Williams may be a case in point, although I don't know that as a fact. But the current roster of high school recruits for 2017 and 2018, was not affected.

You seem to know nothing at all about the timing of verbal commitments and LOIs in softball, besides just making things up about whatever investigations occurred and when.

You may want to take a break for a while. It's not healthy what you are doing here.
