Not everyday you get to hear the love a Man has for a younger man and publicly proclaiming it. Even rarer is when that man says he won’t mind letting know a guy that his daughters would be available for him when they turn 18. Well , Tigers coach Eliah Drinkwitz went ahead and did just that in a hilarious admission of admiration for his young player Brady Cook .
As strong an endorsement of a player as I've heard in 20+ years covering college football.

Missouri intends to use Brady Cook and Sam Horn as its starting quarterbacks
When Missouri plays South Dakota at home to open the season on August 31, two quarterbacks will be used. After the scrimmage on Saturday night, Tigers coach Eliah Drinkwitz told the media that he anticipates both Brady Cook and Sam Horn to participate.
“I think, in this day and age of college football, I think you can very easily see a couple quarterbacks play in the first couple of games and let the play on the field decide it,”
“We got to know a little bit more about some of our other quarterbacks on Friday when we went live with them.
“Some of the plays that Brady will make when he’s live — same thing with Sam — there’s a couple of plays he extends and makes throws down the field that, that he makes just because he’s such a big body. We’ll see both [of them], I anticipate, the first game, and then kind of play it from there.”
According to ABC news, after Cook was selected as the team captain earlier in the week, Drinkwitz lauded his leadership. Drinkwitz cited Cook’s third-down performance as an area for development, but he also noted that the quarterback performed well during camp.

Dude is weird as hell. Also, this essentially sounds like Sam Horn is not a team first guy to me. https://t.co/AtH0JsVoPf
