I don't want to jinx us...
but has our rebounding substantially improved against a team that is supposed to be a rebound-machine?
This just in: Mangino fired along with 75% of KU cafeteria staff.
let's see...
UAPB should have roughly 4-5 offensive rebounds, and they have 7.
Mizzou should have about 4 offensive rebounds, and they have 5.
So it’s been about even so far…which, against a good defensive rebounding team, isn’t bad I guess.

I don't know...
People are wetting themselves over a bunch of kids who haven’t proven anything yet. I’m not taking away from their athletic ability…but it’s all potential right now…and potential doesn’t mean anything. Ask Blaine Dalton.
You can always find examples of 4-star failures and 2-star successes...
…but you’d still rather have more 4-star guys than 2-star guys. Pinkel’s proven he’s going to put together a damn strong program with mostly 2- and 3-star guys, and maybe this class won’t be any more successful than any others, but…well, again, you do have to like the odds.
Rock M Nation

I don't disagree
I’m just saying until they strap it up in August and get hit…they don’t know what college football is about. You can be 132 stars for all I care, but when you get laid out in practice for the first time, those stars don’t mean anything.
Bingo.

Interesting...
ESPN at halftime of St. Petersburg bowl discussing teams that are “In Desperate Need of a Win” in the upcoming bowl games due to a disappointing season….
And Mizzou is on the list along with USC, Georgia, UCLA, Oklahoma, and Florida State.
I would consider this year successful overall and really don’t think we should be considered “desperate” for a bowl win. I would agree with many of the names on the list, but don’t think we should be on there.
idiots
they’re just looking at the fact that mizzou is in the texas bowl instead of where they should be.
follow me on twitter @nickg105
by stlcardinalsfang on Dec 19, 2009 8:59 PM CST up reply actions
Actually I think it's a good sign
It means they’re starting to think of Mizzou as a power school, and seeing 8 wins as disappointing. I don’t think they necessarily put a lot more thought into it than that… so it’s implicit flattery really :)
either way, i'm REALLY excited for next season.

Not sure...
…neither seems to have the shooting range as Bowers/Safford. I see Stone playing kind of the Ramsey game, and Underwood is quite simply being molded into a defensive stopper. Their offensive limitations (at least, those that we’ve seen to date…it’s still, uhh, early in their career) suggest they’ll be more of the role-player type than a starter/star, but…well, in this system, we have lots of room for role players.
