COLUMBIA, Mo. – The weather has been unseasonably cool over the last few days in Mid-Missouri, but on the Kadlec Training Field behind Mizzou's Athletic Training Complex, things as have been heating up as the Tigers have donned full pads at the last two practices.
In between a pair of spirited and physical practices Saturday morning and on Monday, the Tigers took time to meet their fans at the annual fan day. Weather forced the annual event, titled Meet the Tigers, into the Devine Pavilion. After going through an array of photo shoots, the doors opened to the public. Plenty of fans were able to meet their favorite Mizzou players, take pictures and get autographs over the hour-long event.
Following Meet the Tigers, Coach Odom and his squad had the day off from practicing on Sunday. The freshmen moved into their housing arrangements at Todd on the west side of campus.
