Of course, we should not suspend our skepticism. But if indeed this is a contract-enhancement ploy by Painter, if his motive is to use Mizzou to force Purdue into giving him a better deal, then Painter seems to be taking the game to the next level.

KFNS reports Painter is in Columbia right now, discussing "how serious" Mizzou is about it's basketball program. I imaginge this has to do w/ his contract, and his assistant's as well.

If Painter is having a face-to-face with Mizzou, then I really think this deal gets done. Maybe not today, but soon.

That tweet is gone. Apparently this guy is getting himself in trouble with his tweets.

I can still find it without a problem. Gregorian says Alden said on Tiger Talk that talks with Painter are going well but they aren't rushing it.lukethedrifter wrote:Lesson wrote:http://twitter.com/Tom101010@Tom101010 Tom Davis

I don't get it. I even did a 'find on this page' search.
Stranger still, I see it on my phone but on the computer the most recent tweet shown is the one about the Nick Charles SI story. Weird.

Re: Mizzou 2010 Hoops
Painter would be great for Mizzou.
Lusk is/was a high candidate for MSU as well. I'd prefer Coach Williams (assistant) for MSU.
