Mizzou appears to be getting a much needed shot in the arm to both its return game and backfield as former Oklahoma running back/kick returner Alex Ross has signed financial aid paperwork to enroll at Missouri this Summer.
In three years at Oklahoma, the 6’1, 227 pound Ross also rushed for 786 yards and 5 touchdowns and could give Mizzou a spark in the backfield as well, especially given that the Tigers only return one running back with game experience (Ish Witter).
