Still can't believe he chose Mizzou...
ETA: Thank God Les Miles and staff saw that he was a bust and stopped recruiting him. Best talent evals in the nation.![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconPimp.gif)

Nope. They went for the patented 4-5-4 defense made famous by Nute Rockney at Notre Dame.

From the #1 recruit in the nation to a special teams player. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconbanghead.gif)

This is from a Post Dispatch article about this topic...
And it's not certain he'll play in that role anyway. They're just trying it out. He'll be starting as a receiver.
quote:
The 6-6 wideout lined up on the edge for the punt block team, putting his speed and wingspan to good use as the rusher from the left side of the formation. He hasn’t nailed down a job on the punt block team, Gary Pinkel said, but he’s in the running. “If we decide to put him there, you’ve got a guy with remarkable speed and he’s 6-6,” Pinkel said. “So his wingspan, his reach, you’re probably going to get a foot closer (to the punter) than with a guy who’s 6 foot, 6-1. He’s just a really good athlete, so we’ll see what happens.”
(I’m already seeing some tweets from fans freaking out over Green-Beckham playing on special teams. Seriously? He’s absolutely built for this role. Imagine the nightmares he'll give the punt protection team. Imagine the disruption he could cause in that role — not to mention, his ability to command attention on one corner and free up another rusher on the other side. And don’t forget, you have an All-American return specialist in Marcus Murphy hoping to feast on the punt team’s focus on blocking the front wall. If Missouri can manufacture some momentum-shifting plays in the kicking game, why not use its best athlete in a game-changing role like that?)
And it's not certain he'll play in that role anyway. They're just trying it out. He'll be starting as a receiver.

We have three four star receivers with more experience than DGB. So it isn't as if he doesn't have quality competition at receiver.
