Penn State transfer Beau Pribula emerges as frontrunner for Missouri's starting quarterback role

Missouri football is looking for a new starting quarterback after Brady Cook's departure. Cook was a key player for the team over the past three years, helping to shape the offense under head coach Eli Drinkwitz. Penn State transfer Beau Pribula is seen as the likely frontrunner to take over the position. He previously led the Nittany Lions to a victory in 2024 and has experience learning behind established quarterbacks. A competition for the starting role is expected in the spring and fall. Pribula will face competition from returning players Sam Horn and Drew Pyne as the team prepares for the 2025 season.
