Entering their fifth seasons, Eli Drinkwitz is in the catbird seat, while Gary Pinkel was on the hot seat. Why 2024 could set Mizzou up for a bright future. How long will Missouri be a "challenge" for Drinkwitz? Plus, recruiting chatter on Dillon Alfred, Maxwell Riley, and Nicholas Randall.

Quibble with the definition of "blue blood" if you want, but Mizzou is objectively swimming in the highest waters. But lest you think I'm being arrogant, I am prepared for absolutely anything during the 2024 football season.
