I imagine Drink's ego took a hit on that one. I understand the reason for the flip, but man was that a harsh way to go about it.

I don't feel bad for Drinkwitz, but the joke's on that kid. He's going to Arkansas.

He's following the previous Mizzou head coach to Arkansas.

Drink may have dodged a bullet on that one.

Not much different with how we landed Smith this morning. He showed up in UCF gear and then busted out the App shirt.

This happens all the time. It is a pleasant surprise to land a UCF commit.

How long are y’all gonna keep this up? Who cares?

It's in the Other Schools' Athletics folder.

Don't open it if you don't want to read it.

I did want to read it, so i opened it, and then i even commented! Just a childish, jealous ex type of look. Would be nice if App was bigger than being the jealous ex but i see some of us aren’t.

Yep, I was going to post the same thing. Like some of us had been hinting at, Drink had a lot of red flags when it came to locker room stuff and the way he was dealing with players/people. This is just an example. For Drink’s sake, I hope he continues to mature and learns what is important.

I saw some of the stuff your talking about but we have to remember that these are 18 year old kids. We all know Satt is a great guy and I remember reading a story last year about him getting banned from recruiting at a high school in Louisville.

It does happen a lot. I don't know the new Arkansas staff to know. I hope we never do that though. Several SEC schools lie blatantly to recruits just to sign them. I want us to honor what we say and be open and honest. There is no reason to deceive the kids. If the kid only comes to play a position that you know he can't play then you don't want him. We need to be known as an honest staff.

I know a big raise was nice for DJ Smith but I bet you money he will wish he did not take the money to continue working with a guy like Drink.

We have a lot of kids come in at one position and end up playing another. I agree that if a kid says I only want to play X and you know he’s not going to play that position you shouldn’t tell him he will play that position. But things do change and sometimes for the better.

They definitely change sometimes. Bodies can transform.

That was for a completely different situation that Satterfield was banned by a high school coach from recruiting his players. Satt took back 2 scholarships from players that were committed to Louisville prior to his arrival, but didn’t fit his scheme.

Is anyone else surprised no recruits flipped to Missouri? Their class wasn’t very strong.

I wonder how Mark Speir did with recruiting, or Shawn Elliott....Lonnie Galloway land some good WRs?

No, like Drink and Satterfield I don't give a shit about what they're doing with recruiting. We've got a special coach that is passionate about Appalachian State, which is bringing in very talented players to Boone. That's all I care about...not a Louisville team that will struggle to even finish second in their division or a Missouri team that will become bowl eligible MAYBE by their 11th game.

Let's celebrate what we have today, and treat Drink and Satt like what they are...a thing of the past. I thank them both for coaching teams to successful historical seasons, but now its Coach Clark time.
