Kirk Farmer was a durable, dual-threat Missouri quarterback with a knack for big plays
Kirk Farmer’s Missouri career peaked in the 2001 season, when he produced 1,976 total offense yards despite starting only nine games, and his Tigers résumé also includes 2,812 passing yards, 629 rushing yards, and 33 total touchdowns across 1999-2002. He stood out as a tall, mobile QB who could extend plays, create offense under multiple systems, and bring real academic consistency too, earning Big 12 First Team All-Academic honors in 1999 and 2001. The big caveat: injuries repeatedly interrupted his momentum, so the fit was always “high-upside if healthy.”
