It’s been a rough opening week for the Missouri Tigers.

First, DL Harold Brantley was declared academically ineligible and DL Walter Brady was dismissed from the team.

Then, on Thursday, OL Nate Crawford was forced to retire after recovery from a second back surgery didn’t go as planned.

On Friday, Brady decided to tweet about his dismissal, cautioning fans not to assume what they don’t know:

Unfortunately, Brady’s tweet only leads to more questions. If it wasn’t a legal issue or an academic issue, what exactly caused the Tigers to dismiss the talented player?
