Brady Cook is an easy story to root for. He’s the in-state kid who never considered out-of-state options. He stuck around despite the coaching staff flirting with external options all offseason. He appears to be the model teammate, and a guy who worked his tail off to get to where he is today.
All of that is great. But what can we expect from him on the football field?
This is a logical question, the follow-up to the feel-good story of Cook’s announcement as the team’s starting quarterback. Heck, it is the question that will ultimately determine the trajectory of Missouri’s season.
