Defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson of St. Louis is headed to Missouri after all.

The 6-foot-4, 290-pound lineman from Gateway Tech leads a group of 25 recruits to sign with the Tigers Wednesday. Richardson unofficially committed to Missouri before his senior year of high school but visited Miami over the weekend. The Hurricanes suggested that Richardson could play on offense as a tight end.

The Tigers also signed two quarterbacks as they look for Chase Daniel's successor. Both Blaine Dalton of Blue Springs and Ashton Glaser from Springdale, Arkansas enrolled early and are already on campus taking classes.
