Mizzou losing corner to transfer

Mizzou confirmed Tuesday that cornerback Robert Steeples (No. 22) has decided to transfer from the football program. Steeples, who would be a fifth-year senior this season, will graduated next month and transfer to another Div. 1-A (FBS) program, where he would be eligible to play immediately if he enrolls in a grad program not offered by Mizzou.
Several young corners reportedly had solid springs, which likely would’ve meant Steeples, who entered the sessions No. 2 on the depth chart, was in a for an unexpected battle for playing time coming into summer camp. During his time at Mizzou, Steeples played in 39 games but started just one of those contests. He was a three-star member of the Tigers’ 2008 recruiting class.
