As if there weren't enough news going around already on Signing Day, Missouri made official what had been rumored for a couple of days: Jackie Shipp is the Tigers' new defensive line coach. After losing Wilson, his first choice for defensive line coach, to the Philadelphia Eagles after a month, Odom turned to Shipp.
Shipp is a former recipient of the All-American Football Foundation Mike Campbell Top Assistant Coach Award and has been named by Rivals.com as a Top 25 recruiter nationally. Details of Shipp's contract will be released once fully executed, along with the completion of human resources procedures.
