The wait was over. Finally, long-suffering Mizzou fans nationwide had the coach and the team they’d been dreaming of as they stayed true to their school through disappointment, near-misses, and downright disasters. When the 2007 Tigers became Cotton Bowl Champions they fulfilled the promise of a program that has often been long on desire but short on luck.
Now fans can go behind the scenes at Faurot Field and discover the stories behind the tradition in Steve Richardson’s “THEN PINKEL SAID TO SMITH…”: The Best Missouri Tigers Stories Ever Told (Triumph Books, September 2008). They will find that the 2007 Tigers are just the latest chapter in
· Faurot’s aggressive scheduling, credited with drawing the talent and filling the coffers that enabled
· Dan Devine’s notable color-blindness in an era of shameful discrimination in college sports
· The development of Tiger greats Roger Wehrli, Kellen Winslow, Phil Bradley, Brad Smith and others
· The view from the sidelines during the greatest wins, and losses, as told by the men who were there
· The infamous “Fifth Down Game,” where an officiating gaffe of epic proportions cost the Tigers the game and became well known as one of the biggest blunders of all-time
· The memorable “Flea Kicker” play, also known as the “Immaculate Deflection” in
· Many, many more heart-pounding moments of Missouri Tigers drama….
Included with “THEN PINKEL SAID TO SMITH…” is a collectable Memories of Mizzou CD that will help fans relive the glory of the greatest upset victory in Missouri Tigers history, the 1972 win over Notre Dame. So, as the first game of the season approaches, Tigers’ fans everywhere will want to take a Saturday or two to brush up on
