Mizzou's Dennis Gates on senior day moment with Isiaih Mosley: 'I'm by my players' side every day'

COLUMBIA, Mo. — One of the most enduring scenes from the Missouri basketball team’s postgame senior day ceremony on Saturday came when guard Isiaih Mosley was introduced to the crowd. Without a family member present to walk him onto Norm Stewart Court — Mosley was joined by close friend Pep Stanciel, a St. Louis native and former Columbia College player — three people jogged over to Mosley’s side to escort him onto the floor: Tigers coach Dennis Gates, athletics director Desireé Reed-Francois and team captain Ben Sternberg.

Mosley, a Columbia native, didn’t play in Saturday's game and hasn’t appeared on the floor for the Tigers since Feb.
