QB Blaine Gabbert chose to forgo his senior year eligibility and enter the NFL draft in 2011.
Four days after Gabbert declared for the NFL draft, sophomore DE Aldon Smith also declared.
Sheldon Richardson, a 6' 4" defensive tackle originally from St. Louis, signed a Letter of Intent to play for the Tigers in 2011. He was ranked as the #1 DT prospect in the nation from many recruiting analysts, and a 5* rating (out of 5). He also was ranked as the #1 player at any position in the State of Missouri. He originally signed with Mizzou in February 2009, but had to go to junior college (College of the Sequoias, in Visalia, California) to improve his grades; played DT for them in the past two years. He was also rated the #3 junior college prospect by Rivals.com. He also can play offensive tight end as well as defensive tackle.
Michael Boddie, Gerrand Johnson, and Wesley Leftwich signed LOI prior to Feb. 3 and enrolled in classes this Spring semester. 'More Info'
