A friend and I were talking at work today about the Missouri team that bumped off Oklahoma, I think in 2010? They were #1, Missouri was ranked. I don't recall the ranking, top 10 I'm fairly sure.
Anyway, we were discussing some of the players on both teams, where they went and what they did after college. He remembered Aldon Smith, which gave me an 'oh yeah' moment remembering him too.
I know he got drafted pretty high, SF 49ers I believe. We were both wondering what happened to him. Was he a bust? Bad injury or something?
Another I was curious about was Dorial Beckham. I remember him because he was SEC. I know he was removed from Missouri and went to Oklahoma and didn't play a down, was drafted and seemingly disappeared. Are either of these guys still playing at all? Canada, or a practice squad, or backups somewhere?
