Well I haven't seen anything about this in here, but you all remember that video of Matt Zollers' absolutely horrific injury and that some people thought it might derail his career? Well I have some really great news.
https://247sports.com/college/missou...ick-237250954/ It was a play only needed to be seen on video once. And seeing it just once could be too much for some. It was Matt Zollers, the nation's No. 38 overall prospect and Missouri's prized 2025 quarterback commit from Royersford (Pa.) Spring-Ford, sitting on the ground holding his left leg with his ankle dangling at an unnatural angle. Visually, it was a horrific injury that required surgery, but not one that should impede Zollers' development or practice time when he arrives at Missouri in January.

Brian Dohn Brian Dohn 15 hrs VIP 3 On Now Missouri survives against Vanderbilt in overtime, 30-27 It was a play only needed to be seen on video once. And seeing it just once could be too much for some. It was Matt Zollers, the nation's No. 38 overall prospect and Missouri's prized 2025 quarterback commit from Royersford (Pa.) Spring-Ford, sitting on the ground holding his left leg with his ankle dangling at an unnatural angle. Visually, it was a horrific injury that required surgery, but not one that should impede Zollers' development or practice time when he arrives at Missouri in January. Continue watching College Football Playoff implications in store for Week 6 as Missouri, Texas A&M take center stage after the ad "It is a 3-to-6-month injury," said Zollers, who is the nation's No. 6 quarterback and state of Pennsylvania's No. 1 player. "They knew that right after surgery. It looked much worse than it actually is." That timetable means the 6-foot 3 1/2, 205-pound Zollers should be ready for the start of spring practice. He was injured Sept. 13, and he underwent surgery shortly thereafter. He remains on crutches, which also means he cannot drive until he is fitted for a new cast (should be within a week), but he said he is doing well physically and mentally. Zollers spends his Saturdays watching Missouri, and he is excited about the 4-0 start entering Saturday's game at Texas A&M. "I think overall they are doing well," he said. "I think they are just figuring everything out. I think by the end of the season they are going to be a super tough team to beat. They are going to make the college football playoffs, I think, and I think they can make a big run." Playing for Missouri was something Zollers, whose high school is 30 miles northwest of Philadelphia, never thought of prior to the start of recruiting — because, well, he knew nothing about the school or football program. However, when the Tigers' staff starting reached out, Zollers began his research. The more he learned, the more he wanted to find out. He said no one around him knew anything substantial about Missouri, which rarely recruits the Northeast, but that changed. By the time Missouri offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Kirby Moore offered Zollers on Jan. 15, he knew enough about the school and the program to be excited. "Everyone around me knows about Missouri but there are people every once in a while that are like, 'You're going where?' " Zollers said. "A lot of people here just know the Big Ten and Alabama and Georgia." Penn State was active with Zollers. So were Georgia and Alabama, the latter of which did not offer. But as his recruitment moved forward, and as his April 4 commitment date approached, Missouri distanced itself from the other suitors. "It was the connections I had with everyone there," he said. "That was the main point; everybody on the coaching staff and the players. I also wanted to play in the SEC and I think Mizzou fits me well and they are doing something very good and they are moving in the right direction. I wanted to be a part of it." The relationships between Moore, Zollers and coach Eliah Drinkwitz are strong. "I like (Drinkwitz's) energy and he's offensive minded," Zollers said. "He oversees everything that goes on with the offense. If something is going wrong, he puts his input in. I like that." Zollers' season ended in the fourth game. He completed 54 of 92 passes for 611 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions, and he also ran 29 times for 233 yards and three touchdowns. He began starting as a sophomore and he moved on the radar of colleges when he threw for 2,917 yards and 37 touchdowns and ran for 420 yards and seven touchdowns as a junior. Zollers finished his high school career by completing 441 of 720 passes for 6,116 yards and 70 touchdowns against 11 interceptions. He also rushed for 983 yards and 16 touchdowns. |

Great to hear that. He was probably going to redshift next year anyway. By the time his turn comes, he should be good.

Will Missouri win this game? I was thinking about betting on them... but I don't actually want to cheer for Mizzou.

They’re the better team but Kyle Field is a tough place to play. The line is -2.5 mizzou and I’d say a field goal game sounds about right
