Those that don't make the travel squad train basically like the off-season. The weight room is a modern facility of 10,000-square feet which was completed in 1993 but is already undergoing a 3,000-square foot expansion.<br>Don Sommer is in his 11th year at MU and second as the head strength and conditioning coach. Coach Sommer was a four year starter at Texas-El Paso and played for three different pro teams. He holds a master's degree in human performance. Bob Jones is the Associate Strength and Conditioning coach who is in his 12th year at MU. He works basically with the other Tiger sports. Coach Jones holds a master's degree from MU in human performance and sports psychology.<br>Rob started lifting in the 7th grade.  I read about Power Cleans, remembered Rob,  so I did them on my own. Hazelwood West, where I went to high school, is a Jr.-Sr. High school set up, so I lifted with the high school athletes.<br> I started playing football in the 9th grade as a 6-0 220-pound guard. As a senior, I grew to be 6-2 265 pounds and ran a 5.1 forty. Rob made the all-Suburban North Conference team twice but did not make the Missouri All-State team. He also lettered in wrestling and track while being recruited by Stanford, Michigan State, Air Force and Army. He took the ACT test three times to get a score of 25 which got him a scholarship to Stanford.  However, said Rob,  I finally decided to stay in my home state because of Coach Smith but I don't think I was coveted at all coming out of high school.<br> We did the BFS program in high school. It gave me a great start here at Missouri. Strength and Conditioning is the present and future of athletics. I read the BFS Journals and I remember the article on Steve Emtman (U. of Washington). He was astonishing. It was motivating an inspiring. <br>Rob redshirted his first year and played defense. The following spring they moved him to offensive guard and he promptly started nine games. Rob's sophomore year saw yet another change. Because the centers graduated, he was moved to that position.  I've got lateral quickness, Rob avowed.  So things have worked out well. <br>That is an understatement. Last year as a junior Rob was an All-Big12 first team center. This year he is a pre-season all-America. There is also speculation on being a first round draft choice. Rob's got it together. He is dedicated to excellence in all things. Rob is a business management major who will soon graduate. He even made the Academic Top-Ten list once with a 3.58 GPA.<br>Rob approaches his workouts like a football practice keeping single-minded and focused. He believes in Coach Smith's motto,  leave your baggage at the door. <br>Rob has not missed an
