Going, Going, Gone!

Another season of great Mizzou expectations met by resounding failure.

MIzzou falls in the polls.

Quarterbacks are apparently very impressionable position players. Three QB’s have been arrested in the off-season after Mizzou’s head coach Gary Pinkel was arrested for a DUI last season.

Mizzou’s SEC debut looked a lot like their play in the Big 12: ugly, over hyped, and unfocused. This game had plenty of story lines. I could talk about Mizzou’s trash talk that never got backed up or their incredible ability to repeatedly shoot themselves in the foot or even their horrendous uniforms (Blind Melon wants their bumble bee costume back), but I’ll let the media do the talking.

Saturday night at Faurot Field was the sort of gawdawful moment that epitomized the wildest dreams and most agonizing nightmares of Tiger lovers everywhere.

No. 7 Georgia Rocks Mizzou 41-20 in SEC Debut | Fox 4 News

Down 27-20 with 8 minutes to play in the fourth quarter, Franklin threw an interception on Mizzou’s 20-yard line. Georgia returned it to the one-yard line, and added a rushing TD to go up 34-20.

On the ensuing drive, Franklin fumbled the ball after being sacked by Georgia defensive tackle Jarvis Jones. The Bulldogs took over on Mizzou’s five-yard line, and quickly put the nail in the coffin with a rushing TD to take a 41-20 lead.

More Cheating at Mizzou

An STLToday article reveals that two Mizzou doctors plagiarized at least a third of a research paper on irregular heartbeats:

The editor of the medical sciences journal said the similarities between the two papers are “obvious and significant,” according to the blog Retraction Watch, which first reported the incident.

The retraction marks the latest problem for the MU medical school, already under a federal fraud investigation for illegal billing by two radiologists. Dr. Kenneth Rall and Dr. Michael Richards were dismissed in May after an internal audit found they had billed Medicare for services that were performed by residents, doctors who receive specialty training in the three to seven years after medical school.

A STLToday article reports that two Mizzou doctors plagarized a research paper on irregular heartbeats:

At the time, the school’s dean, Dr. Robert Churchill, announced his plans to step down in October after less than three years in the position.

Churchill was brought on as dean in October 2009 after the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education placed the school’s residency programs on probation. The council cited a lack of funds and poor record-keeping as reasons for the probation, an action it hands down to only a few schools each year.

The council also criticized the school for allowing medical residents to take on noneducational duties such as scheduling patient appointments.

While cheating is nothing new at Mizzou it does seem a little odd that these two doctor’s wouldn’t expect anyone to notice a report that uses this much plagiarized material.

It is also interesting that the school’s residency department suffers from “lack of funds” when the school recently announced a $200 million plan to improve the athletic facilities. Maybe they could apply the money they are stealing from war vets to the residency program.

Another Hit and Run QB for Mizzou

Another Mizzou QB Arrested: Maty Mauk

Mizzou Quarterback Maty Mauk was arrested for hit and run, resisting arrest, reckless driving, and failing to stop at a light. Mobile quarterback indeed.

NBC Sports reports that 3rd string QB Maty Mauk was arrested for multiple traffic violations while riding his scooter. This is the third legal incident involving a Mizzou QB this off season. With Corbin Berkstresser’s hit and run arrest and Ashton Glaser’s bizarre arrest after getting punched in the face by a stranger marking the earlier incidents.

From the Tribune:

At 12:17 a.m. MU police spotted Mauk make contact with two vehicles while driving his scooter east on Kentucky Blvd. — with two female passengers on board. Officers attempted to pull Mauk over, but he drove away, turning south on Curtis Ave. and also ran a stop sign, according to the incident report. The officers later found the scooter abandoned between two cars in a parking lot.

Through their investigation, the officers contacted Mauk and he turned himself into MU police headquarters at 11:18 a.m. and was arrested on suspicion of four misdemeanor charges: leaving the scene of a motor vehicle accident, resisting arrest by fleeing a vehicle, operating a vehicle in a reckless manner and failure to observe a traffic control device.

Mauk was able to ditch the meth after parking the scooter and thus avoided the more serious charges that come with driving under the influence (a common Mizzou offense) and possession of a schedule II drug.
