A Missouri Tigers football legend has landed himself in the Missouri Tigers Athletics Hall of Fame. Former running back Brock Olivo, who played from 1994-97, is now engraved in Tiger history.

Olivo is a Hall of Famer for a reason. He rushed for 3,026 yards over his four-year career, the best season being a 985-yard campaign in 1995. He rushed for a career 27 touchdowns as well, with the most in a single season being 11 in his final year in 1997.

The former Tiger took to social media to comment on his recent nomination.

"I’m extremely humbled by this honor. For me, it’s a reflection of the quality of teammates and coaches I was fortunate enough to be around during my time in CoMo. There are way too many to name. Also thank you to our awesome fanbase for embracing me!"

The only other athlete to be named in the 2025 Hall of Fame class is former women's basketball player Sophie Cunningham, who now plays for the Indiana Fever.
