I liked him well enough when I was at Truman, but I've developed an incredible respect for him since I've come to Columbia. He's really a remarkable guy.
As soon as it became apparent that Pinkel was on board, I was full-steam ahead on this thing. If he's up for the challenge and if he thinks ending his coaching career in the SEC is worth doing, then I believe him.

When Pinkel first came to Missouri, I didn't think he would last at all. Couple of my teammates were recruited by Mizzou, this would have been Pinkel's second year or so, and they were the biggest douchebag coaches I had met. Yost is a complete ****head IMO. Pinkel was a dick basically as well. I think Aaron O'Neils's death changed how they did things in Columbia, bc they have took a complete 360 from where they used to be. I run into Pinkel all the time during the summer at the Lake, he is a different guy than he was 10 years ago. He will never take Mizzou to a National Championship level but he is in that solid next tier below those guys for sure.
