Mike Alden shakes the hands of each referee after a generously called game.
I find this video interesting in that MU Athletic Director shakes each of the officials hands who called a questionable game against Kansas in the final installment of the Border War in Mizzou’s Paige Arena. If I were him I would do everything possible to not lose that game.
Mizzou puts another feather in it’s racist cap by supporting segregated homecomings. Apparently they think it is a good idea to have a campus wide homecoming and separate Black Homecoming.
It is a shame that MU, who many have thought invented Homecoming, can’t seem to reconcile racial differences during what is supposed to be a time where MU alumni and students come together to celebrate all things Mizzou.
Either they were trying to impress the SEC or they still don’t get that racial segregation has come and gone.
It always amazes me how good the University of Missouri is at finding trouble. If it’s not hiring a head basketball coach accused of paying players it’s their football team drinking and driving like it’s going out of style. Now we know where they get it.
Missouri head football coach Gary Pinkel was arrested on November 16 for a DWI offense. You can see the quite comical sobriety test below. Some high lights include when he is asked to count backward form 73 to 62 he responds “I can’t do that normally, are you kidding me?”
You should expect to see plenty of “Gary Drinkel” signs at Mizzou road games form now on.
News that the SEC will be taking Mizzou off the Big 12′s hands has been coupled with a report that West Virginia will join the Big 12 in 2013-14. With this the Big 12 has managed to unload one of it’s least desired assets and land a school that can make Final Fours and BCS Bowls. Even better than trading a good athletic school for a mediocre one, the Big 12 has finally rid itself of Mizzou fans. Big win for the Big 12.
This is a real image from Mizzou’s Late Night “event” which signifies the first night the team can practice. As you can see their notoriously bad fans showed up in droves.

The Jayhawks and Tigers met in Lawrence on September 18 to engage in the Harry Potter inspired sport of Quiddich. In an unsurprising result Kansas won the best of 3 matches event 2-0 proving that Kansas dominance of Missouri reaches into the realm of the imaginary as well.
Former Miami head basketball coach Frank Haith has found himself in hot water in the wake of the “U” scandal involving prominent booster Nevin Shapiro. Among the allegations being made against Haith are that he knew Shapiro paid a Miami recruit $10,000 and that he would frequently visit strip clubs with Shapiro and Miami players.
It is bad timing for Haith as these pictures have surfaced of several of his recruiting “events”.
According to a study of 64 teams in the men’sNCAA Division I Tournament, Mizzou’s black basketball players show a 25 percent graduation rate. For white Mizzou players — a pretty rare breed in the last ten years — the rate was 100 percent.
Between this and all the racial discrimination at Mizzou I’m not really sure why a black athlete would want to play there. Is it really worth it to put up with the constant racial tension if the school isn’t even trying to graduate you?
