New Missouri football quarterback Drew Pyne is revealing his reasons for choosing the Tigers as his new home. Pyne picked Missouri as his new school after playing at Arizona State and getting a college degree from Notre Dame.
“From the beginning, Missouri stood out,” Pyne said, per ESPN. “The program has great momentum as one of the best in the SEC and to be one of the best in the country. Being on campus and talking to the coaches, I understand why they had such a great season last year.”
The news was music to Missouri football's ears. The Tigers are coming off an impressive 2023 season, that saw the program defeat Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl. The team finished the campaign at 11-2. Following the season, Missouri extended the contract of football coach Eliah Drinkwitz.
