What's On
Mizzou football's upperclassmen were really getting after it at their pro day.
Just running around. Going one hundred miles an hour.
The glass is half full. Half half full? There's some liquid.
Is There Any Hope for Missouri's Offense? - David Morrison @ The Columbia Tribune
Short answer: yes.
But we're not into short answers here at the blog. We're into exceedingly long answers and showing our work statistically to the point where nobody even really cares about the answer anymore by the time we're done, we've beaten them so soundly over the head with numbers.
So that's what we're about to do here as we try to gain historical perspective on how difficult it will be for Missouri's offense to pull itself out of the slump it entered last season.
David, as he is wont to do, provides a fantastic numerical look at how Mizzou can improve upon a less-than-great offensive year, given how other trash offenses have rebounded throughout history.
Harry Ballard, the St. Louis WR who was a late addition to the 2016 recruiting class, will sign his National Letter of Intent today.
Signing the NLI tomorrow at noon (12:00) ✍ ! I appreciate everything and everyone #MizzouMade

Mizzou Tennis Completes Comeback, Defeats Tennessee 4-3 - MUTigers.com
The win marks the first time since the 2004-05 season Mizzou has posted 15 wins and is tied for the fourth most wins all-time in program history. Santos defeated her third ranked opponent this season with the win over Hammond, improving to 3-4 against ranked opponents.
It's only a matter of time before this becomes a strictly tennis blog. Just like Bill planned.
Looking ahead to the weekend.
