(MU-Student); O'Neal, Deborah M Subject: RE: 2016 Game Hi Lisa, My staff and I have discussed whether or not to continue the series

2 with Missouri in the future and have decided not to based on the following: 1) Ehren was overheard saying to his team after our game this year that they should have run ruled us because we were no better than a "5A High School Team". His total disrespect for our program and our players is unacceptable. 2) It is widely known that Ehren consistently disregards the NCAA recruiting rules. In our view, winning only has meaning if it is done fairly and within the rules. 3) While at Killian Stadium in April your team spit sunflower seeds in the dugout and on the turf despite the sign that says "No sunflower seeds." Again, a sign of total disrespect for the rules, our program and facility. While we think it is an important series and one we would like to continue, the lack of mutual respect makes it impossible for us to do so. Holly & Staff From: Simmons, Lisa C.

Do either of those days work for you? We would do a 5pm start time again. Good luck the rest of the season and I look forward to hearing back from you, thanks!

It's going to be wet regardless and freezing. Our staff doesn't see this being a good option for either team. I was comparing schedules and wanted to know if you would be willing to play us on April 21st (Tuesday) or April 23rd (Thursday) at your place? We have a Sat- Monday series and it looks like you don't play until the 25th giving both of us a day off between games. Please let me know what you think about this at your earliest convenience, thank you. University of Missouri
