The NCAA takes time to comment here, you've hit the big time. Maybe Mangino's real estate agent pointed you out to them. Wow, Orson. The NCAA takes time to comment here, you’ve hit the big time.

Unfortunately for them, the more time spent going up only leads to a longer, more devastating free-fall plunge back to reality. I hate to reference the tough schedule, but....schedule (and possibly some lack of O-Line depth) may ultimately be their downfall.

Temple was the most experienced RB for sure, but when the other RB came into the game this year, it was obvious that the only reason he was the starter was because he was a senior (or more experienced). I think there will be more speed at that position this year. I’ll agree with your assessment mostly.

And for those who care, the NCAA is working with each school on developing improvement plans, so hopefully that will help the results in future years.

I know Maclin is probably the best player on Missouri's team, but Daniel is going to miss having that second (third in this offense) reciever handy. But going by the stats Temple was the best/most experienced RB on the team. They can't line up Maclin at RB and WR at the same time, I don't see Daniel playing all-time RB a la Tebow... I mean not even Tebow could manage that without getting hurt. Methinks that losing a Rimmington finalist at center will hurt as well. I thought you lost 3 linemen, but I guess it was only 2. So that may not be that big a deal. I'm thinking they get 9-10 regular season wins. Re #10

Re#2: Mizzou lost Rucker but Coffman returns. Franklin wasn't the best WR on the team, and Temple wasn't the best RB on the team (as if they run that much to begin with). I'm not exactly sure on the OL situation, but I think not too many were lost in graduation or drafting (or smashing cars in a parking garage.)
