MU baseball coach on Horn:

Pitcher Sam Horn — also a quarterback for Missouri — seems headed for a limited role on the diamond, at least early in the season. He’s coming off Tommy John surgery and will step away from baseball in a couple of weeks to participate in Mizzou’s spring football practices.

“That one’s kind of up in the air, just with regards to the football aspect,” Jackson said. “We want to make sure that we don’t run into some of the things that happened previously, of trying to do too much on both sides of the ball, if you will. His throwing rehab and his progression coming back has gone tremendously well, but spring ball is coming — he’s going to leave us. He’s going to go to spring football. Once he comes back from spring football, we’ll have to take our time with him and building up to make sure we don’t send him out there and put him at risk for injury.”
