Rankings from AP Poll

The 2011 Missouri Tigers football team represented the University of Missouri in the 2011 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The team was coached by Gary Pinkel, who returned for his 11th season, and played their home games at Faurot Field at Memorial Stadium. It was the Tigers' final season in the Big 12 Conference as they departed for the Southeastern Conference in 2012. They finished the season 8–5, 5–4 in Big 12 play to finish in fifth place. They were invited to the Independence Bowl where they defeated North Carolina 41–24.

The NCAA has recognized Missouri’s football program for ranking in the top 10% of the country for Academic Progress Rate for the 2011-12 academic year, MU’s final year as members of the Big 12.[1]

Recruits

Key Losses:

QB Blaine Gabbert chose to forgo his senior year eligibility and enter the NFL draft in 2011.[2]

Four days after Gabbert declared for the NFL draft, DE Aldon Smith (sophomore) also declared.[3]

DT Sheldon Richardson, a 6' 4" defensive tackle[4] originally from St. Louis, signed a Letter of Intent to play for the Tigers in 2011. He was ranked as the #1 DT prospect in the nation from many recruiting analysts, and a 5* rating (out of 5). He also was ranked as the #1 player at any position in the State of Missouri. He originally signed with Mizzou in February 2009, but had to go to junior college (College of the Sequoias, in Visalia, California) to improve his grades; played DT for them in the past two years.[5] He was also rated the #3 junior college prospect by Rivals.com.[6] He also can play offensive tight end as well as defensive tackle.[7][8]

Michael Boddie, Gerrand Johnson, and Wesley Leftwich signed LOI prior to Feb. 3 and enrolled in classes this Spring semester. 'More Info'

All 17 recruits signed their National Letter of Intent during the National Signing Period (February 3, 2011 – April 1, 2011).

The recruits signed by February 2.[9]

Fully one-half (9) of the 17 recruits are from Texas, and four were in Missouri; two of those four were from St. Louis. The Mizzou class consists of four offensive linemen, four defensive backs, three linebackers, two wide receivers, two defensive tackles, a defensive end, and a quarterback. Richardson is the only junior college transfer.
