Then they hired veteran Coach Larry Smith who is one of only four college coaches who have taken four different teams to a bowl. The Tigers won in 1997 and 1998. They have won 17 out of the last 22 regular season games and last year finished 21st in the AP final rankings. <br> The difference in attitude had been like night and day from when I first got here, Rob recalled.  We have now found out how to win. We go into every game expecting to win. <br>I saw a sign in the weight room which revealed the expectations of Coach Summer and Coach Smith, who is now in his sixth year. It is about excuses.  Excuses are tools of incompetence that build monuments of nothingness and those that insist upon using them are seldom good at anything else. <br>Each year, nearly 100 players choose to live in Columbia during the summer, working out four times per week They also condition three days per week and work on plyometrics. During the season, the travel squad lifts twice per week. 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 fo the best or a champion is rough and rocky. It is filled with disappointments and falls, but those who get back up after each fall and keep on going are the ones who find themselves crowned the champion in the end.<br>In closing, if you want to WIN, if you want to be a CHAMPION, you must exercise mental domination over the body. If you have not prepared yourself mentally then all your hard physical preparation will be wasted. Make sure to train your brain as well as your physical body. If you fail to choose, you choose to lose. <br><br>__________________<br><br><br>"Nobody wants to be mediocre in life. The mediocre are the top of the bottom, or the best of the worst, or the bottom of the top, or the worst of the best." Lou Holtzctees, 4 Maxwell Trophy Winners and were National Football Champions in 1926. They rank 26th among Division I schools with 554 victories and a winning percentage of .556 whic includes 264 shutouts. However, times have been tougher in recent years. It has been 15 years since'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 an5%P _5 v1;վ$`#բ AB@z}saC׀,Gdvq*4'|>b1Ly"O@4xRIرܓRz U`Q˿㐔l*#8;R㊄U;-;n'+$: f2:(P{Ӷ`!A },\NRIO |Hw|XGߔđ
