Missouri fans are still buzzing after that nail-biter win against Kentucky, but what really stands out is Coach Dennis Gates dedicating the victory to his mentor, Leonard Hamilton. Gates credits a late-night chat with Hamilton—who broke barriers as Kentucky’s first Black associate head coach—for inspiring the team’s performance. Hamilton’s legacy goes way beyond wins; he helped shape the very culture of SEC basketball. Missouri’s 12-3 start and undefeated SEC record feel even more meaningful with this kind of history behind them. What do you think—should Hamilton be in the Hall of Fame for his impact? #Sports #MissouriBasketball #SEC
