Here's everything #Mizzou football coach Eli Drinkwitz had to say about the job rumors circulating on social media. "Last week, people were tired of me because I couldn't win the big game. People had me meeting with my team and telling them that I was going to another school. None of which were true. Now, this week, it's different story because we scored the second-most points in the SEC this year...All of this stuff is just a distraction."

![John Calipari on why he believes #Mizzou HC Dennis Gates is one of the Coaches of the Year & this Tiger team is an NCAA Tournament squad: "The guys where your team struggles a little bit and pulls it together...folks, that's coaching.

Long, but worth a listen: #Mizzou HC Eli Drinkwitz talks about the state of college football, right now, as it relates to the College Sports Commission Agreement (which still hasn't been signed). "I understand the national sentiment because of the salary ranges of head coaches that it feels like we're complaining...but we're trying to sound warning bells...There's a warning that the system that we're in is really sick right now. College football is sick...there's showing signs of this thing really cracking moving forward."

It's COLD out here in Missouri, folks! #Mizzou softball and other teams play in warm-weather tournaments on the weekend and then come home and can't practice on dirt in February. "My No. 1 focus is to shout from the rooftops that they need to move the softball season back."

#Mizzou HC Eli Drinkwitz was asked today if there's anything college football, as a whole, can do to get teams to WANT to compete in bowl games again ⬇️ This comes as we've seen multiple programs opt out of bowl games, this year. "I can't speak to other people's programs...We got to change the calendar. I think the calendar is driving this whole decision making and issues. You know, we're not able to finish the competitive playing season before players, coaches, administrations have to make hard decisions."
