The University of Missouri’s football program has announced that senior offensive lineman Case Cook, junior safety Martez Manuel, and redshirt sophomore quarterback Connor Bazelak have been named tri-captains of the 2021 MU team.

Cook returns as a captain, having represented the team at SEC Media Days in Alabama in late July.  Manuel played in 10 games for MU last season, with 64 tackles, while Bazelak had one of the best seasons for a freshman quarterback in school history a season ago, following a hard-fought battle for the starting position a year ago with Shawn Robinson.
