The hits keep coming for the Missouri Tigers.
A day after DT Harold Brantley was declared academically ineligible and DE Walter Brady was dismissed from the team, coach Barry Odom delivered some more bad news.
After the Tigers’ first fall practice session, Odom said OL Nate Crawford will not be able to play football anymore:
Barry Odom: OL Nate Crawford has taken a medical retirement after a slow recovery from his second back surgery 2 months ago.

The Tigers were already facing a rebuilding project along the offensive line and losing the 6-foot-5, 290-pound redshirt sophomore definitely won’t help.
It’s been a rough start to the 2016 season for Mizzou, a team that had a tough 2015 season, too. The Tigers need some good news in the worst way.
