Gary Pinkel : Coach and Mentor

The MVMA welcomes Gary Pinkel as our keynote speaker at the General Membership Session Saturday morning.

Gary Pinkel was born in Akron, Ohio — the same state he’d begin his coaching career two decades later. At Kent State, he played with Alabama head coach Nick Saban.

His first head-coaching job was at the University of Toledo in 1991. There, he holds the record with the most wins in school history (73-37-3) and was voted MAC Coach of the Year in ’95.

Pinkel’s next — and final stop — would be in Columbia, Missouri, where he took over a program with just one 10-win season in school history and two winning seasons in the previous 17 years. As the head coach at the University of Missouri from 2001-15, Pinkel lead the Tigers to five 10-win or more seasons, ten winning seasons, and earned the most wins in MU history at 118-73.

Since retirement, Pinkel heads up the GP M.A.D.E Foundation. The non-profit organization supports children battling leukemia or lymphoma; children facing physical challenges; and children working to overcome socioeconomic challenges. A photo opportunity and autograph session will be set up after his presentation.

Make an Impression. Encourge Student Participation.

Sign up to provide a student with a meal ticket for the Satur day night after-awards buffet dinner. With a special student sponsorship price of $25 per ticket, you can help us welcome veterinary students to our MVMA.

On the convention registration form, choose to buy one or more student meal tickets.

Our student meal spon sors will be recognized in the student’s packets, on signage at the event, and via electronic media.

If there is a special student you have in mind, we can send them a personalized recognition of your support for their meal. Your help is appreciated to welcome our students to dinner, to make them feel at home, and to encourage them to contribute to the convention.
