Last Friday, I had the honor of joining Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe, First Lady Claudia Kehoe and so many incredible Mizzou supporters for the topping off of our Memorial Stadium Centennial Project. As part of the ceremony, each attendee had an opportunity to sign the final beam before it was moved into place – marking a significant construction milestone. 

Mizzou Football is off to another historic start. We’re 4-0, ranked No. 20 in the country and we beat kU in a thrilling home game. The nation is taking notice. Our win against South Carolina proved once again that we’re a powerhouse in the SEC. Our enhancements to Memorial Stadium will continue to elevate our university, while still respecting our proud Tiger legacy and traditions. 

We’re deeply grateful to Governor and First Lady Kehoe for their support of the Mizzou community. We also have strong leadership from Chair Todd Graves and the University of Missouri Board of Curators, who believe in achieving excellence in everything we do. I also want to recognize our outstanding Director of Athletics Laird Veatch, Football Head Coach Eli Drinkwitz and our student-athletes for their hard work and dedication to bringing championships home to Missouri. 

It’s exciting to see so much progress, and I can’t wait for the facility to be completed ahead of our 2026 season!
