The contract for new Mizzou athletic director Desiree Reed-Francois still isn’t finalized by the Board of Curators (though that should be happening in relatively quick fashion later today), but everything is a formality at this point. Mizzou has a new leader in the athletic department. Great news... so what does she do now?
Ben Frederickson at the Post-Dispatch has some ideas... including one that seems rather obvious:
Get supporters in seats. The biggest thing slowing Mizzou’s revenue sports (men’s basketball and football) recently is the lack of tickets sold, and the lack of bodies in the buildings.
