also seen Cunozo Martin fired recently for about the same performance. It's wins/losses, not who you have signed. Recruting wins don't put the bodies in the seats and eyes on the TVs. Plus the portal negates some attrition when firing/hiring coaches.

6.5 wins: you taking the over or under? (nm) - KCT-BoneTiger A - 8/9 10:09:56

Our O/U last year was 5.5 and we were better than that - pinkman MU - 8/9 19:31:36

Under. Six wins at best and that's IF we don't drop - tigerman81 MU - 8/9 18:10:00

I'd probably take the over, but it's a close call. (nm) - zounami MU - 8/9 15:40:15

you cannot push that bet(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 14:58:34

coaches poll says five(nm) - tmcats KSU - 8/9 13:45:23

But that was for 2017.(nm) - AllThingsKC KC - 8/9 15:17:17

Coaches poll is predicting win totals across college - kmawv8 MU - 8/9 13:58:23

coaches ranked missouri and its opponents along with others - tmcats KSU - 8/9 14:07:09

Also, coaches poll ranks 25 teams. - kmawv8 MU - 8/9 15:27:08

So a better ranked team is always predicted - kmawv8 MU - 8/9 15:24:52

five is not the number, then what is it?(nm) - tmcats KSU - 8/9 16:51:20

The coaches poll isn't designed to predict win totals. - kmawv8 MU - 8/10 08:14:22

0 - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 19:19:04

So the coaches poll does not say 5(nm) - Iron DUKE - 8/9 14:55:14

lolz (nm) - SatoriTiger JC - 8/9 14:39:28

I don't think he needed clarity on what the Coaches Poll is - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 14:20:33

well, it's an objective measure which is more ... - tmcats KSU - 8/9 16:50:13

False. The OP source of 6.5 wins is more objective - kmawv8 MU - 8/10 08:15:31

yes, because college coaches are so dialed in to other teams - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 18:54:01

Is it? In what universe do you think coaches are objective? - hangman MU - 8/9 17:37:50

i would say they're more objective than t'board posters, no? - tmcats KSU - 8/9 17:42:22

objective? sure. More informed? Doubtful - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 18:56:30

Cook/Garcia at QB: Under. Horn at QB: Over. - coolbean MU - 8/9 12:43:20

correct(nm) - TigerFan92 STL - 8/9 13:38:32

^^^ Knows what's what ^^^ (nm) - lqf2b8 KC - 8/9 12:46:18

I don't think Horn is mentally mature on the field yet to - KCT-BoneTiger A - 8/9 12:52:57

Does he need to make a Mt Rushmore list to be a grownup? (nm) - Faurotious MU - 8/9 14:30:58

What exactly made you come to this conclusion? (nm) - kmawv8 MU - 8/9 13:56:05

you should have stopped after the first three words (nm) - lqf2b8 KC - 8/9 13:03:38

haha(nm) - TigerA MU - 8/9 13:19:57

Last year we were just a couple of knuckleheaded plays - samclemens MU

Besides Auburn what were the other plays....nm - tigertix MU - 8/9 13:50:43

are you serious? - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 14:44:00

UGA mental mistakes, UK wow what a call, and UF, that would - MU-TULSA MU - 8/9 14:08:37

And conversely, could've lost some games won too. Your - Diamond Dave MU

Good number, tough one. I've got 4 as locks... so - North co-co champs MU - 8/9 11:49:39

if it aint over, Drink is gone.(nm) - SuperTone MU

- 8/9 11:34:04

If drink signs 2 5 star players from in state this year no - sjbe4d MU - 8/9 11:48:59

it doesn't matter who he signs if they ride the pine. - tigerdb MU - 8/9 12:26:10

Yep. If he wins 6 games this year, he is gone. - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/9 12:41:08

you dont hire/fire coaches based on kids.(nm) - SuperTone MU

- 8/9 12:24:21

Lol. He signs those 2 and goes 3-9, he's safe? The program - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/9 11:55:41

OVER - tigerfaninstl MU - 8/9 11:28:07

That would mean Drink goes over .500 for the first time - zoomer 99 - 8/9 11:16:03

so, you're gonna keep telling this lie? (nm) - zounami MU - 8/9 15:39:44

wrong. Drink was 6-4 in 2020, or maybe 5-4 - TigerJackSwartz MU

- 8/9 11:51:20

correct, and that was against a brutal all-SEC schedule (nm) - zounami MU - 8/9 15:38:30

Correct. That vacated game does not count as a W for us.(nm) - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 8/9 12:53:57

At some point he has to, but is 7-5 really a good season - Diamond Dave MU

Under - XRob MU

- 8/9 10:59:56

apologies - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 13:48:00

it's possible, but highly unlikely - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 11:03:45

Florida isn't in that 5 game stretch - XRob MU

- 8/9 13:29:27

We're not "helpless" against Kentucky. We've been screwed - hangman MU - 8/9 17:43:10

RE: Florida isn't in that 5 game stretch - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 13:48:28

Drink definitely has Beamer's number so far - Eggs MU - 8/9 11:07:59

Drink "should be" 2-1 vs. UK(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill MU - 8/9 12:50:53

Won't touch it without knowing the QB situation - Eggs MU - 8/9 10:57:56

RE: Won't touch it without knowing the QB situation - hangman MU - 8/9 17:44:01

yep. hopefully cook can be that but we don't know yet(nm) - TigerA MU - 8/9 11:08:45

We will likely be at a QB disadvantage on paper - Eggs MU - 8/9 11:11:21

7 should result in termination, but I'll take 7+ either way(nm) - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/9 10:57:03

Termination? - TigerDeep MU - 8/9 11:13:49

7-5 puts him at .500. Don't care what the SOS is - Diamond Dave MU

RE: 7-5 puts him at .500. Don't care what the SOS is - Stump Mitchell MU - 8/9 11:26:48

Happens ALL of the time. Coach signs kids and then is - Diamond Dave MU

Let's make this simpler: - TigerDeep MU - 8/9 11:53:10

Yep, everybody seems to want to return to the 80s/90s(nm) - redngray MU - 8/9 12:05:31

Haha. Still etched into my memory. - TigerDeep MU - 8/9 12:08:56

I graduated in '91, so I've seen it all pretty much. I've - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/9 12:12:36

Yeah, but 'even Vandy' would terminate that?? - TigerDeep MU - 8/9 12:20:13

8 wins and he should be retained - Diamond Dave MU

- 8/9 12:25:12

Absolutely. He'll be .500 over 4 years here. Even Vandy - Diamond Dave MU
