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 sgn 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-ElPaso 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 e 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.<
