I didn't intend for this thread to be about racism at Mizzou. I will share some of the stuff I have learned from other staffers at Mizzou. The issue was known about by Loftin. Loftin was on his way out the door by Mizzou for other issues he had caused on campus. To stick it to Wolfe, he let this stuff grow out of hand not meet with the protesters immediately. By the time Wolfe was aware of the situation it was out of hand. By that I mean that the talking stages had passed. Wolfe didn't help his case by ignoring them. Campus had a huge break down in communication and that reflects leadership. In many many ways what happened was horrible but a small silver lining is that Mizzou has a chance to get leadership that the university needs to move forward. It is a top 30 university but could be so much more.

Loftin was an unmitigated disaster. He was front and center in the middle of the racial stuff and hired Mack Rhoades. I don't think he could have sabotaged our AD worse if he had purposefully set out to do so.
