I think LHJK said there might be video on the MUtigers.com All Access package...
…but you’ll have to pay.

I looked there earlier and I couldn't find it.
But now I see it there, and I just so happen to have Mizzou All-Access. Thanks.

Allow me to plug All-Access… You not only get this game, but all the live audio from football/basketball — including Pinkel’s Monday pressers — as well as full-game football replays on Tuesdays, and every home VB/SOC/WBB/GYM/WR/BB/SB. And maybe some MBB too.
Sorry I care so little about football
but should I be freaking out about Mike Anderson??? People say we have nothing to worry about, people say I should be worried, what the hell…

I'm just as confused as you are
But there are two other threads on this site devoted to the topic.
Just relax, we should know more by the end of the day (I hope).

You should always be worried when big money comes knocking
and, there isn’t much bigger money than what the donors of Oregon have access to.
However, if Anderson didn’t go home for a ton of money, I doubt he’s going to Oregon for a ton of money, not when he’s got a chance to really make a run the next 2 years. If he’s in it for the money (which it doesn’t APPEAR that he is), and if he’s smart (which, let’s face it – he IS), he’ll continue to build at Mizzou, get us to a Final Four, then he can write his own check to pretty much any job he wants. If current trends continue, we’ll be in the FF in a few years – interestingly, the FF seems more likely than Conference Titles do, with advantage we have over teams who haven’t seen us multiple times.
Yeah
Don’t expect to see this anytime soon:

*ahem* cough cough SHILL SHILL *cough*
See all the RMN’ers after the game??? Celebrate the big Mizzou win (and the loss, but gee… that glass is half full, son) with a pint of the good stuff at my place of employment?
Bet me!

And in sports news...
Question: Is it more “important” for one side of the ball to “win” today? As Mizzou fans are we “allowed” to root for one over the other? This spring game fandom is getting pretty complicated!
Bet me!

I'D LOVE TO BE WRONG
but it seems to me that Mike Anderson’s silence over the past 24 hours can mean only one thing, he’s going to Oregon. Otherwise wouldn’t he be screaming to media outlets to calm boosters, recruits and his current players. My bet…he arrives back in Columbia today..lets his player know…and makes an announcement.
Considering how desperate and borderline humiliating Oregon's search has been
I would think they would be shouting from the rooftops about Anderson if he had made the decision to come there.
On a different note, can anyone think of a college basketball coach who went to a new school entirely for the money? That is, when was the last time a coach moved down in school prestige/tradition, conference, current roster situation, etc. just for the increase in pay?

Occam's razor suggests otherwise
If he decided to move, why didn’t Kilkenny stay? Or go back to Eugene? Why are the leaked details on the lines of “I expect him to stay” and “the offer is less than reported”?

Like I said....
I’d LOVE to be wrong…as someone that has lived and breathed Missouri basketball since just before “Band-Aid-Man”…it would break my heart if Anderson left…but its hard to imagine another reason why Anderson would be so quiet during this period of time….what is there to gain by letting the Missouri “family” speculate? At the very least his behavior would seem designed to let speculation thrive…it certainly isn’t designed to quash the rumor mill.
WTF?
Where is this sentiment?
There also appears to be some sentiment that Missouri fans and financial supporters are growing weary of Anderson annually being linked to job openings, and the school may not be interested in making a significant financial effort to keep him.
This article is really only the information that was being reported yesterday morning, but prettied up to appear in a print media.

Everyone Chill.
Anderson is not leaving. His agent is a douche, and is purely using this as a leverage move. Mike didn’t even want to meet with Oregon but his agent encouraged oregon to fly down there and meet with him so he could try and get a raise out of Missouri. He has the same agent as Nick Saban. That’s all this is.

For cliarification's sake
I was WTFing the quote that followed, not any other expressed sentiment (specific or implied) that may have appeared previously in this thread. :)
How ’bout that wide receiving corps?

If that's the case...
…then CMA should consider reigning his agent in. If this happens again next year with Arkansas, we’ll be treading dangerously close to “Brett Favre Retirement” territory.
Maybe . . .
CMA doesn’t listen to sports talk shows or spend a lot of time reading sports blogs. If that is the case, he is not being bombarded with questions except when a reporter is able to get close to him at the golf tournament; at which time he simply says “no comment” like a true professional. If there were to be ANY change at all in the coach’s status, you can be sure his players and coaches would know it before anyone else, and they would begin to twitter friends . . . which is how we found out about the two latest recruit signings.
Not to distract from ZOMG ANDERSON talk
But it is GORGEOUS in Columbia today. Very un-Spring Game-like.

Anybody else think we could just swap
Pinkel and Anderson’s salaries?

Thanks for the thread
- wife had a planned “girls day” with some friend in town.
- kid has birthday party to go to at… yep 1:30… It’s a block from the house, and I have to be within arm’s reach.
So, I’ll be checking here to see how things are going. 10 min to start!
To those in attendance:
The RMN contingent is in section C along the south goalline. Come find us and say hello.
offenses tripping up a bit early
Franklin picked by Rutland and a bit of a lazy throw with Aldon in his face.
No 1s work into range for FG miss by Ressel
Not much for either unit on next two possessions
Woodland must not be playing.
Annoying You Since 1986
Video feed just kicked on
saw Franklin running the #2 offense. Nice job running on the 3rd down play, picked up about 6 yards on a busted play.
ROUGH series for Lakebrink
False start, then destroyed on bull rush by Brad Madison, forcing Franklin to scramble and try to shoulder charge Gettis
You cannot imagine
how sad am I am about not being there.

So is it safe to say that Franklin
hasn’t locked up the back up job yet?
Annoying You Since 1986
And yes...
I know he is with 2nd string line against 1st teamers.

Kimmeh is sharing photos
via twitter and agrees with the RMN twitter that the announcer needs work.
Have you taken the RMNation Survey? $500 to a worthwhile charity if we win.

Half
14-14 first team and second team. Second team was spotted 14 points, and Madison returned a fumble and Washington had an 8 yard run for the scores. 1st Team defense looked quite good over 2nd team offense, forcing Franklin into two int’s and a fumble. I guess they should though.
