COLUMBIA, MO. • We begin today with a photo and some reflections.
1. SLIVE REMEMBERED
On Thursday, a friend sent former Missouri athletics director Mike Alden a photo from a historic day for Mizzou on Faurot Field. It was from Sept. 8, 2012. Georgia was in town to play Missouri in football. In a conference game. It was the Tigers’ first contest as part of the Southeastern Conference. SEC commissioner Mike Slive was there that day to celebrate history in the making.
Alden has thought a lot about that day this week.
