Welcome to coaching search season, Mizzou fans. Buckle in, because it’s about to be a bumpy ride.
Missouri just did the easy thing. It fired its head coach. That doesn’t make the decision right or wrong. But anyone is capable of firing a coach for not living up to expectations. I could put my uncle Mike in charge of the athletic department, and he’s fully willing and able to tell someone they’re out of a job.
What comes next is the hard part.
This is the part of the job Jim Sterk is paid the big bucks to handle.
