Don't know how much weight Austin Allen and Kurt Rafdal put on during their Redshirt season but coming in Allen was at 210 and Rafdal was 230..

I'm excited how they can contribute into this new offense. Losing Swinson wouldn't hurt the depth chart at TE..
But I think we have a great shot at landing him.

If we insinuate Swinson at DE he will go to Mizzu. Dumb move by Frost and Co if so. This kid is special, let him play TE all day long...

So we are already calling a potential move by Frost as "dumb" before it is done and questioning the HC. Amazing. Not a single person on here gets questioned on decisions they haven't even made in their jobs yet.

Let me re-phrase. If the kid wants a shot at TE, and you want him to play TE, you give him that shot.

If he doesn't project or Nebraska can't give him a shot at TE and he wants a shot at TE, he probably goes where he gets the chance.

Either way, I tell him, go ahead and take a shot at TE. That way, he gets here. Of course, I would assume Frost and Co are sincere, which is a given, and I like his skill-set at TE. Of course, am not the HC, so you got me there. But I can give my opinion, either way. So there

Doesn't like Lincoln, but likes Columbia, MO? C'mon, you gotta be kidding me. There is nothing, and I repeat nothing going on in Columbia, MO.
Columbia and Lincoln are really pretty similar with a little warmer winters in Columbia usually. Might be a larger African American population in Columbia. The downside IMO, would be that Columbia's race relations problems are real.

Not to mention that Lincoln has a lot more entertainment and about 2 1/2 times the population. Columbia's downtown isn't much to speak of, but I suppose college towns all have a similar vibe. .

MU has it’s OC identified and I’m sure Messiah is fully aware of how he’d be used.

What a joke, tell uncommitted recruits but no one else who the OC will be. Messiah will want to play in Scott Frost's high octane offense. He'll be a red zone monster for Nebraska!

You’ll find out tomorrow which school he chose today. Mizzou has been on this kid for a long time.

The idea of having Allen, Rafdal, McGriff, and Swinson all on the field in a goal line or special package is fun. That’s a lot of height mismatches.

So I think he needs to be put at QB. That's an opinion but that is one thing, calling a decision by a HC "dumb" before the kid is even on campus is really _ _ _ _.

Jedd Fisch?
That is the prevailing thought and is a key reason why Drew Lock would return to Mizzou for his senior year. Even with extreme competition in the SEC east (esp Georgia) next year there is unusual confidence what MU can do in the league next year given what they have coming back.
