Here is Barry Odom's full quote on Heather Morris, who was the director of the Enhanced Learning Program in Missouri's athletics department and wife of former offensive lineman Mike Morris:
"I don't go on a personal level very often but I need to today. Our thoughts and prayers and hearts are with Mike Morris and his family. Heather passed yesterday and she was such an unbelievable fixture in our organization, in the things she did for our program and for our kids. As selfless of a person as I've ever met and ever been around and she made us a heck of a lot better, and there will be a huge void that our football team feels. ... It puts things in perspective really quick. We'll work through this and our team understands the importance of having opportunities and the people around them that give them a chance to be successful, and Heather was one of those people."
