COLUMBIA, MO. • I imagine this is how it works in SEC country — at age 14, every tall boy is asked to grow out his hair, and the ones whose locks swoop effortlessly across their forehead are made the quarterbacks.
You know that haircut. From Archie Manning to Eli Manning, from Columbia, S.C. to Columbia, Mo., so many SEC quarterbacks have this look, and Drew Lock’s locks look the part.
And there he was in the postgame parking lot Saturday, a boy signing autographs for boys, as his shadowed forehead foreshadowed his future.
Drew Lock is going to be a Missouri legend.
