Threatening language has reached a crescendo.
There was once a time when old Mizzou would have been shaking in its black-and-gold boots. Perhaps those times have changed. It’s overdue.
Here’s my advice to Mizzou and any other Missouri-based programs that are hearing breathless warnings about what could happen if they take full advantage of one of the most advantageous name, image and likeness rules in the nation: Keep pushing. Don’t give an inch. Take another foot instead. If you later find yourself in a spot where you have to ask for forgiveness, don’t ask for forgiveness. Lawyer up and fight back instead.
