I listened to this interview live. Pinkel has yet to figure out how much he has screwed up. He thought by sending out a tweet without informing his boss and the university administrators he would unite the team. It turns out that a number of players, including some of the black players, did not agree with this stunt. Pinkel has lost control of this team and he will never get it back. He has also lost many alums and some of them have very deep pockets. I think that he will be gone before the end of the season.
That's the bottom line. Follow the money. Mizzou is in for a long dry spell, football and otherwise.
