A new season awaits for head coach Dennis Gates and the Missouri Tigers with the message being clear, this season is a new one and the woes of last season are in the past. Gates reflected that in his opening statements at Missouri’s first open media day of the season.
“You can’t predict the things that we went through last year, but I’m not focused on last year,” Gates said. “I’m focused on what’s coming forward and what’s moving forward.”
The ground zero mentality from Gates and his crew is a welcome one, as the Tigers finished last season 8-24 with an 0-18 record in conference play.
