Missouri may have found its starting running back Wednesday when the school announced that Oklahoma graduate transfer Alex Ross now is a Tiger.

News broke in mid-May that Ross seemed likely to transfer to Mizzou, but there had been no official confirmation until Wednesday.
While Ross was a reserve at OU, rushing for 786 yards and five TDs, there is no clear-cut starter at tailback for the Tigers.
