    for the 2019/20 season. This is not good news for Kelly Bryant who I'm sure envisioned leading Missouri to a post season bowl game in his only year with the team.

    I wonder if this would allow him to transfer somewhere else?

    I thought about it a little and really since it's highly unlikely that Missouri would have been in the CFP or even a New Years 6 bowl, this means he won't have to decline to participate in a bowl game while he prepares for the NFL Combine/Draft. So really it's good for him.

    I don't know, Missou has historically been very competitive in the East since joining.

    Missouri was competitive in the East but not championship material just like UF was not championship material in the two years the Gators won the East under McElwain.

    I agree with Terry that he probably did not really want to play in the bowl game that would be the result of a typically decent but not great season for Mo.

    I think Terry has a very good point.

    Seems like we're doing an awful lot of thinking for the kid in this thread.
