I've been to a lot of senior days at Mizzou and some on the road. I really liked how Pinkel did Senior Day with the players tunnel and GP starting with the players. I'm sure GP had seniors who didn't like him at times or relationships were strained with but they started in the tunnel together and you didn't really notice it.
Drink stations himself right out on the 30. So you have players, DRF on the 10, Drink 30 and then families on the 50. I personally think it looks bad for DRF and Drink to be separated...my guess is they do this to keep the line moving.
Anyways, this all happened right in front of us. Maybe we mis-interpreted what we saw. The first few players who got to Drink didn't take pics with him-but it seemed like they didn't know what to do. After 3-4 players guys started getting pics. Near the end when Nicholson was called he stopped with DRF and then didn't even get close to Drink-just went right to his family. Maybe he wasn't sure what to do-I don't know. Peat was next. It couldn't have been more obvious-Peat ran by Drink faster than he has with the ball all year haha. Drink was running after Peat and Peat didn't even look back.
All that to say it to me was an unfortunate incident that really didn't look good. Drink was yelling at Peat and Peat didn't even look his direction. So whether or not they were told or not told what to do, it sure seemed like a couple of guys didn't show much respect to the head coach. Now, only about 10,000 were in the stadium at the time and I'm not sure how many of those were paying attention. But none-the-less, it happened and seemed awkward.
