Everything that he brings to the table is eminently replaceable. There's no reason why Missouri can't hire an elite recruiter. If you can get a #5 class at Ole Miss, you can do it at Missouri.

I think there's a lot of truth to this but it doesn't take away that he's put some pretty good teams on the field.
It's just over. He's had his run. He's just banking checks at this point and doesn't seem to have the fire. It just feels like to me he's hanging on as long as he can to get as much out of it as possible before hitting the road.
I think Alden's reticent to replace him. It wouldn't surprise me if he's here another season after next with a 6-6 type of effort.
