Someone posted an article on Tigerboard from back in May when he got his offer that seems to say he plans on playing tackle.

Here is the article you are probably referring to.

quote:

"They're looking at me as an offensive tackle, but I can play wherever they want me to play. If they want me on the defensive line, I can do that. If they want me to long snap, I could also do that," explained the multi-sport athlete.

"I would go with offensive tackle because it comes more naturally to me even though I like hitting people on defense," Sam answered when asked which position he prefers. "I feel like I'd fit better on the offensive line."

That puts it out there, doesn't it? We need DL!!! And a QB, and at least 1 RB. We need to focus on some defense, in a big way.

I almost don't mind if we don't take a QB in this class but would love to see 1 or 2 DL commits relatively early into the season. Really would prefer not to hit January with zero on the DLine.

What are you hearing that leads you to believe that?

OK, I just read Dave Matter's story about Sam Bailey. It's kind of a sad story. Sam has a twin brother, Ben. Ben is an inch taller, and a few pounds lighter. Can play OG, H-Back and TE. Desperately wants to play for Mizzou, but doesn't yet have an offer. The boys have been raised by their mom, who works 3 jobs and can't afford tuition for Ben to attend Mizzou. They have no relationship with their dad. They really want to be together.

Sam didn't even want to announce his commitment to his teammates. He feels like it would be rubbing it into Ben's face. He's so excited, and yet feels bad for his brother. This makes me sad. I hope they can get his brother a scholarship too. Especially since they both want to be at Mizzou so bad. The only school that has offered both of them is Army.

I think if the kid hangs tough, he might find one, but he'll probably have to wait. Much like I think it was the Harris kid last year?

Kenya Dennis was rated an 85 which will make him a 3* by 247, Sam Bailey rated a 78 which will make him a 2*.Our class ranking per 247 is now 36.

Just saw some vid on Jackson Morrison.

Armon Watts was destroying everyone then he lines up against Morrison and gets stonewalled. Hope Morrison gets his offer.

Mogray I also agree with the no qb taken this year. And land Drew Lock next year! I would have to think that could only help his recruitment

So are they gonna let the kid play both sports? I know he's been offered but I don't know if I've ever heard/read any statements from either coaching staffs. I would assume they'd let him play both if he chose to.
