My beef with MA is that he always seemed to have a wandering eye. Every year, he tried to leverage a better deal by dropping hints that he was leaving. Take the better deal or don't.

Mizzou has a better offer from the SEC. We told the Big XII what we needed in order to stay, and we didn't get it. Deuces.

MA told Mizzou what he wanted. He got it, and he still bolted a year later with zero recruits signed. That asshole knew he was leaving, and he phoned in his recruiting efforts accordingly.

Sadly, I agree with this post 100 percent. Haith is a disaster, IMO.

Anderson is still having trouble recruiting, though. Arkie fans are not real pleased he couldn't land Archie Goodwin.

agreed. I don't fault Huggs, he couldn't have forseen the WVU opening up so soon.

eh, Mayo was looking at KSU pretty hard too, but obviously we didn't pay as well as USC.

Do you think he will stay at Arkansas?

I know how you feel. That is exactly what Eddie Fogler did to WSU, and it took one heck of a long time for them to recover. He left the cupboard totally empty. "Vanderbilt was the only school he would leave for."

Mizzou, is turning it around a lot quicker, and of course they are not a "mid major" so that helps.

The reason to fault Anderson isn't that he left, it's that he left the recruiting pipeline empty.

Is it just me, or has this thread lost it's hate?

Maybe its time to burn down Larry again.

Give it time....I'm sure it will be poppin' by end of the day. :evil:

I dunno. Still think Lawrence could use a fresh coat of fire.

So the deal is done?

When is the formal announcement?

Wait until basketball season.

I'm trolled out.

At this point, any 'smack' that can be laid has been laid. It's been responded to with varying degrees of success by several different parties and returned in kind.

This thread is really like watching Larry Johnson run. It burned brightly for a bit, served its purpose, but now its really just going through the motions, getting to the hole late and falling down after first contact.

Someone let me know when we start changing signage, then I'll be interested again.

Deaton is going to Dallas to meet with the Big XII brass. Supposedly, he's withdrawing in person.

:thumb: Well done MU...

Maybe it is the realization that sympathy is in order for Mizzou. It is looking more and more like 4-8 and heading to a tougher conference.

Some people could take some consolation that Mizzou is preseason ranked top 25 in BB, but that sport just doesn't matter.

It just looks bleak for Mizzou, but they should have increased revenue and can say **** you to Texas, so there is that.


Better? :D
