I am truly surprised by this, didn't see it coming.
Loftin is a great hire for Mizzou. You will absolutely love having him. Guy loves spending time with students and goes to all the sporting events. He's a great Twitter follow @aggieprez. He's just a very positive guy.
Without him we almost certainly didn't make the SEC move. He's a cool customer who knows how to play politics and look 3 steps ahead on the chess board. Can't even begin to describe what kind of crap he was able to weave through during our B12 to SEC move.
The thing is he is constantly underestimated. He comes across as this goofy, kind of nerdy prof who wears a Bowtie but the dude is a freaking badass. He's a great story as well. He was the President at A&M Galveston, our small auxilliary campus on the coast. When Rita hit it basically wiped out the school. He did such a great job in handling everything when A&M fired Elsa Murano they brought him in as an Interim President at the Main Campus. Got thrown in to Conference Realignment almost right off the bat for Round 1 and did such a good job he got the job full time.
Congrats.
Don't know the whole scoop on why he left, just shocked. He is
