COLUMBIA, MO. • Missouri’s football program on Monday found its first victory since Oct. 3, taking down the formidable duo of demonized university system President Timothy M. Wolfe and the relatively new chancellor, R. Bowen Loftin, in a rout as one-sided as it was abrupt.
Some will dutifully characterize this as a win for social change given the festering grievances against Wolfe, a man with a business background who reacted with too little urgency to a swath of grievances that made enemies of his faculty, graduate assistants and ultimately those within the most visible athletic program on campus.
