Mizzou's Wallace-Simms coming back next year, but Okwuegbunam's future unclear

MEMPHIS, Tenn. • After earning first-team All-Southeastern Conference honors as a junior, Missouri offensive lineman Tre’Vour Wallace-Simms already has plans for 2019.

“Obviously just getting myself into the best shape I can get in, making some tweaks and adjust my game to hopefully, God willing, make the All-American list,” the East St. Louis native said Friday as the Tigers continued to prepare for Monday’s Liberty Bowl. “That’s something that’s really a goal of mine that I’ve set for myself.”

The junior right guard is eligible for the 2019 NFL draft, but he did not seek a draft evaluation from the NFL’s College Advisory Committee, he said Friday.
