Taking a closer look at Mizzou's Wide Receivers, young, talented, inexperienced

Mizzou finds themselves faced with the task of turning a lot of athletic potential into a dynamic passing attack. The talent is there, but how quickly can they develop?

Obviously, losing talent at any position is never fun, but there are very few positions that rely on depth as much as wide receiver. Spread offenses are well-known for rotating their receivers and Josh Henson’s Mizzou offense is no different.

After losing 8 receivers in the last two years, whether to graduation or discipline, Mizzou finds themselves faced with the task of taking an extremely inexperienced group of wide receivers and putting together a passing game to complement what should be a quality rushing attack.
