Missouri head coach Gary Pinkel announced today he will retire after the season due to a lymphoma diagnosis he was given in May. This is obviously terrible news and we all hope the best for Pinkel and his family.
If you're interested in following everything at Missouri from people there who know the culture, I highly recommend the folks at Rock M Nation.
Obviously, this aspect of the story is much less important, but there is a chance the Arkansas-Missouri game could be a farewell game for Pinkel. Missouri is currently 4-5 and has games against BYU this week and Tennessee next week before making the trip to Fayetteville.
