On this week’s episode of “Mizzou Storytellers,” Nikki Barry and Dave Matter visit with the man behind the Mizzou swoosh, Director of Athletic Equipment Operations Mike Kurowski. Mike sheds light on the process behind football uniform choices, helmet designs, Mizzou’s Nike gear, the Tigers’ evolving brand and reconciling the oval Tiger vs. Block M debate. He shares the story of his journey from small school college football to the equipment room at Oklahoma State, where he launched a career that would take him to the NFL, the XFL and back to college athletics. Nikki and Dave learn about Mike’s role in the most famous jersey in XFL history and pulling pranks on Drew Bledsoe. Mike also talks about the special bond he’s formed with student-athletes over the years and integrating his family into his vital role at Mizzou. Nikki and Dave wrap up answering fan questions and finish with a spirited debate over whom they’d choose to be stranded with on a deserted island.
