our coach. I wrote on PowerMizzou that we should go to Bazelak last year, I think it was against TN or the game before that. Gabe ripped me a new one: said, if they do that, and burn his redshrit, then they should all be fired. He also very strongly intimated that Bazelak would no way in heck make a difference ... basically saying, the kid is not that good ... or what I read into it ...
I thought, well, if they lose these last games they are going to all be fired anyway. It is time to go to the kid, he has looked good when he's played .. Gabe basically intimated that anyone who thought we should go to Bazelak was an ignorant azzhole.
Cannot tell what would have happened, but clearly, Bazelak is a good college QB ... heck, he might have blown out his knee earlier had he played earlier ... or we might have won a couple of more games and Odum might still be here
Circumstances played against Odum a little but, but he did earn getting fired, primarily because of inability to recruit and inability to assemble a good coaching staff ... but he might not have been fired had he just won a couple more games last year, which might well have been possible with Bazelak at QB
