MISSOURI TIGERS RUMORS & GOSSIP
With the 13th overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the Jets select Missouri DT Sheldon Richardson. He was an exciting player to evaluate because he plays at such a consistently high level. He displays the athleticism and timing off the snap to win gaps, as well as the anchor and heavy hands needed to occupy and work off blockers at the LOS. While he lacks natural explosion and long...
Missouri quarterback James Franklin, who struggled with injuries and ineffectiveness his junior season, will have to beat out two challengers for the job in fall practice.
Coach Gary Pinkel said after the annual Black and Gold game Saturday that he'd announce a pecking order for quarterback and every other position next week. He said Franklin had his best spring with the team...

I had a chance to talk to Missouri outside linebacker Zaviar Gooden about his career at Missouri, his attitude towards the draft, his preparation and doubters, as well as his work in the community.Peter Smith: You grew up near Austin, TX and had a lot of scholarship offers and Texas hates to let their players get out of the state, so how did you end up at Missouri?Zaviar Gooden...
Missouri announced in June that they would be making $200 million in stadium upgrades to go along with their move to the SEC. With the UM System Board of Curators’ unanimous vote of agreement, Missouri will embark on a master plan worth up to $200 million to improve athletic facilities. The first phase of the plan focuses on projects that could reach a total of $102 million, with...

TOUGH GUY
Missouri's quarterback takes an interesting approach to injuries. His stance is much different from what you'll see from many others.
The entire country, at least those above the Mason-Dixon line and west of St. Louis, are pretty much exhausted by the effort of certain SEC fans. The group of fans who cause more eye rolls than anyone else are those of the Georgia Bulldogs. They have a solid football program, but not on the same [...]
LEND HIM YOUR EAR
Some Missouri Tiger fan with a lot of time on their hands and a cornfield created this SEC masterpiece. They created an entire cornfield that produced this overhead visual of all the states that have SEC schools in them. The cornfield has “A New Era” crafted into it with a Tiger holding an SEC logo. Mizzou fans, you are winning me back. If you keep pulling stunts like this...
COMEDY HOUR
Missouri wide receiver T.J. Moe did his best to make a good first impression at SEC Media Day by cracking tons of jokes.

Well, Mizzou is excited to be in the SEC. So excited that they put a billboard up to prove it. We won’t know if they’ll like it when they are getting pummeled by SEC West teams.
SIGN OF THE TIMES
Missouri is REALLY excited that they landed the nation’s top player on National Signing Day. How excited? Well, they already have at least one billboard up congratulating wide receiver Dorial Green-Beackham on choosing Mizzou. Either I underestimate the promptness of the billboard business or someone had a good idea that DGB was indeed staying in [...]
ROLL BOUNCE
During the Independence Bowl, an insane catch was made by a Mizzou Tiger Cornerback. The ball actually landed on the back of the UNC Tarheel Wide Receiver and stayed there motionless until another Tiger player was able to snag it. I challenge you to find a better interception than that.
DERP!
Word is trickling out of Shreveport, Louisiana where bowl week officially kicks off in two hours and either Missouri or North Carolina will walk away with this broken trophy. Media types on the ground say that the Missouri mascot, Truman, has broken the trophy. @HarryPlumer is a Mizzou beat writer: Asked Truman if he broke the trophy. He nodded. Asked him what happened. Threw his...
TIGER DEN
The SEC announced Sunday that Missouri would be the 14th member of the conference ... including the third school nicknamed "Tigers". Mizzou will oddly be placed in the SEC East division for now.
