Drew Lock is coming back and should put up video-game numbers in 2018. The offense surrounding him is returning its entire starting line, three receivers and — even if there is a bit of an adjustment period under new coordinator Derek Dooley — should be pretty healthy.
Lost in all that, however, is the fact that Missouri is undergoing a loss this offseason that is unprecedented in program history. For the first time since the Tigers began playing football, they’re having to replace a 1,000-yard receiver and a 1,000-yard rusher in the same offseason.
J’Mon Moore, in spite of fan griping, became only the second Missouri player in program history to record back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons and ended his career fourth on the all-time yards list.
