As the white smoke cleared from Memorial Stadium and Eliah Drinkwitz was officially placed atop the Missouri football program, the Tigers’ new direction had a sense of clarity.

It was the fresh start Missouri athletic director Jim Sterk craved. It was a hire supported by university leadership with a unanimous vote by the Board of Curators on Tuesday morning.

“It’s a competitive market out there, but we got our guy and I’m really excited for all of you to meet him,” Sterk said about the 33rd head coach in program history.
