COLUMBIA -- After 12 seasons on Mizzou’s football staff, assistant head football coach, David Yost, resigned.

Yost said his decision to leave the team is based on personal reasons.

Yost tells Mizzou athletics, “There are a lot of factors that played into the process of coming to my decision. I feel like I’ve had a great run here and that it’s just the right time to turn it over to someone else.  On one hand, it’s a really hard decision to make, but on the other hand, I feel good that it’s the right decision at the right time for me,” he said.
