COLUMBIA, MO. • Missouri’s first football practice of the preseason kicks off at 9:30 this morning, which means it’s time to end the camp countdown of the Tigers’ 10 most important people to watch.
What can Drew Lock do for an encore to his record-smashing junior season? When No. 3 starts the Sept. 1 opener he’ll become Mizzou’s first quarterback since Brad Smith to start in four different seasons.
With a Heisman Trophy campaign already launched, Lock returns as the most prolific passer in major college football after throwing for 3,964 yards, an SEC-record 44 touchdowns and a passer rating of 165.
