Pinkel possibly out at Missouri?

Re: Pinkle possibly out at Missouri?

I can't remember...what were Pinkel's comments on the move to SEC at the time. Was he for it or a bit uneasy?

For some reason I feel like I remember he was not very excited about going SEC, and I can't blame him for giving the admin the middle finger and splitting town if I'm even close to remembering correctly.

Even though I hate the guy, firing a pretty proven coach one year into play in the nation's toughest conference is pretty idiotic for Mizzou. They should at least keep him another year or so.

All they need to do is look east at nearby Kentucky and Tennessee to see how you can be an SEC doormat for decades or go from top 5 in the nation to doormat for a full decade.

A friend of mine said that while going through his divorce he impregnated a 26 year old reporter from KC. No official word on this is the reason, but more than likely the reason why he is resigning.

Rumor has it that Mr. Pinkel impregnated a 20-something year old COMO reporter who is tied to the university.

It says he is resigning, and you would think this would have to be the case. I cant see this being a McCarney situation.

Mizzou wants him out since it wasn't his sister?
 
Re: Pinkle possibly out at Missouri?

I heard he was going to resign a few weeks ago due to the ugly divorce and his $26,000/month payments to his ex-wife.

Missouri could easily fall on very hard times in football. They are the northern-most SEC team and much like that is a disadvantage to us in the Big 12, it will hurt them as well.

What is the connection to the university? If he just got somebody else pregnant while he's going through a divorce, I guess I don't see what the big deal is and why he would have to resign. Is she on the AD payroll?

Hmmm Mizzou wanted in the Big Ten so badly maybe they can have a big ten coach, cough cough Kirk.

When you look at all their recent success in the past few decades basically coming under Pinkle, the smart money is on them battling Kentucky for last place going forward. They can be the two basketball schools of the SEC.

There might be more into it. However, I think they just don't want the scandal to go along with a bad year. Michael Dixon on the basketball team is also involved in a scandal so rough time for Mizzou.
