Coach Eli Drinkwitz and the Missouri football athletes might be notably missing from recent "Zou to You" tour dates, but that's because they are currently far away from Columbia, Mo.
After finals concluded, the Tigers took for Harmons, Jamaica, on Sunday, as part of a week-long service trip. Between players, coaches and staff, there are roughly 60 members of the program participating, per a press release.

Harmons is an under-resourced community in a remote location, which has resulted in nearly two of every three people being under-employed. Higher education is often difficult to achieve, while money is scarce for the basic needs of the citizens.
Missouri's focus is on helping the estimated 3,000 people living in Harmons while it can. The focus will largely be on house construction, school service, refurbishing projects and Meals on Heals — a dinner in a local family's home.
Here is a glimpse at what the Tigers have been doing since landing in Jamaica:

As the “Zou to You” tour rolls across Missouri, our hearts are with the city of St. Louis. Last week’s storm brought devastating damage to families and businesses — and while the road to recovery will take time, Mizzou Athletics and the entire state stand with you.

He was a great teammate, a phenomenal teammate. Wherever his place was in the locker room, whatever chair he was sitting in, guys would gravitate toward him. He was so funny and got along with guys from every background. Just a great dude. He was respected because he treated everyone the same and worked so hard."Carson Palmer on Justin Smith
