Quarterback Drew Pyne’s New Direction
Drew Pyne, Missouri’s starting quarterback, has decided to leave the team and is currently in the process of entering the NCAA transfer portal. His departure from Missouri follows a series of impactful performances this season.
Performance Overview
During his short tenure at Missouri, Pyne showcased notable contributions. Initiating his season with an explosive game against South Dakota State, he threw for 313 yards, including two touchdowns. This momentum carried on, with Pyne accumulating a total of 1,312 passing yards and 11 touchdowns throughout the season. His on-field performance peaking during the compelling match-up against Kansas State, where he threw for a significant 317 yards and four touchdowns.

With 82 completions from 137 attempts and registering 1,151 yards and 7 touchdowns, Pyne garnered attention amidst football recruiters around the country.
