Josey and Egnew, first team All Big 12

December 7, 2011 By Bill Pollock

Missouri sophomore tailback Henry Josey earned All-Conference honors for the first time in his career, while senior tight end Michael Egnew was selected as an All-Big 12 First Team member for the second straight season as announced Wednesday morning by the league. Selections were made by the league’s 10 head coaches, who are not permitted to vote for their own players.

Josey led the conference’s best rushing attack in the Big 12 with an average of 8.1 yards per carry. Despite missing the last two games with a season-ending knee injury, Josey finished the year with 116.80 rushing yards per game, best in the conference and 12th-most in the NCAA.

Egnew, a 2010 First Team All-American, finished the regular season with 47 catches for 484 yards and three touchdowns.

Senior DE Jacquies Smith earned Second Team honors for the second consecutive season, while sophomore DB E.J. Gaines and junior P Trey Barrow were recognized for the first time. Nine other Tigers (DT Dominique Hamilton, OL Dan Hoch, DB Kenji Jackson, LB Luke Lambert, WR T.J. Moe, OL Jayson Palmgren, DT Sheldon Richardson, DB Braylon Webb and OL Austin Wuebbels) won honorable mention acclaim.
