I think I mentioned it 'round here but a buddy of mine told me last fall that there was no way Brantley ever suited up again. He has a pretty good connection on the staff and evidently Brantley just doesn't go to class. At all.
The coach was exasperated as all hell because they just kept telling him that all he'd have to do is show up and he'd manage to stay eligible (he's evidently not stupid). But he simply has no interest.
The same guy told me that the staff thought they'd gotten him squared away at the last minute but it looks like that fell through.
Sucks losing Brantley because he's a true 'Mizzou Made' guy; not heralded at all and turned himself into a legit SEC caliber player and potential NFL guy. He's kinda the epitome of what Mizzou needs to do to compete at this level.
Losing Brady sucks because that cat was just !@#$ing good. Guessing drugs or he hit a woman. Whatever it was, I'm blaming Mauk.
