Morgan Steward has already locked down Mizzou's "Comeback Player of the Year" award

Jack Peglow: Steward showed a lot of promise prior to the 2014 season, but wasn’t able to make the impact I thought he would thanks to injury issues. Both Pinkel and Mauk claimed that Morgan was nearing full health during their SEC Media Days appearances, which means we may finally see him take the field.

If he does so – and if he’s anything like the running back we saw toting the rock during the 2014 spring game – he immediately becomes one of the better options when Russell Hansbrough needs a spell. Steward is a quick runner with good vision, but his biggest asset is his ability to break tackles.
