Garrett Riley is headed back to the SEC — and into a smaller role — after Clemson’s offense slipped sharply in 2025.

Riley, Clemson’s offensive coordinator from 2023-25, is expected to join Missouri as an offensive assistant, according to a report from On3. The move places Riley on the staff of Missouri coach Eli Drinkwitz and returns him to a league he knows well after a high-profile run that began with national acclaim and ended with Clemson searching for answers.
