Missouri CAN be a consistent top 25-30 program with a good coach. A few times a decade, that type of program can/should ascend and compete legitimately for a division title.
Unless they land an all-time great coach, that's probably the ceiling for now. And that's fine.
It's also the territory Clemson lived in until Swinney took it to the next level. So it's possible to stabilize and then ascend.

I'm not sure about Clemson. That was always a great job. Surrounded by talent, solid tradition, rabid fanbase, pure football school.
I think we're more like South Carolina. Potential yet to be fully realized
