Time to announce this year's captains:
The only slight surprise here is that I assumed Kentrell Brothers might be in line ahead of Ian Simon. But since I don't spend any time in the Mizzou locker room (believe it or not), that was an uneducated assumption. Congrats to Simon, Kenya Dennis, Russell Hansbrough, and Evan Boehm.
Dennis is the second captain in as many seasons to begin his Missouri career as a junior-college transfer. In 2014, the team voted defensive end Markus Golden as a captain. Golden began his college career at Hutchinson C.
