NCAA investigation
On January 31, 2019, the NCAA gave the Tigers a postseason ban for the 2019 season. The Tigers' baseball and softball teams were also declared ineligible for postseason play. The NCAA found that a former University of Missouri tutor violated NCAA bylaws by completing coursework for 12 student athletes in football, baseball, and softball.{{cite web|first=Nicklaus|last=Gray|url=https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/college/SEC/2019/01/31/missouri-ncaa-sanctions-football-baseball-softball/2732353002/|title=NCAA bans Missouri football from postseason play in 2019–20|publisher=The Tennessean|date=January 31, 2019|access-date=January 31, 2019}} The tutor or any of the athletes involved in the investigation were not named in the NCAA's report. The tutor received a 10-year show-cause for her involvement in the penalties. The NCAA issued the following penalties:{{cite tweet |user=GabeDeArmond |number=1091020239062614017|date=31 January 2019 |title=The NCAA report is out on #Mizzou.
