A Blog for Ol' Mizzou
NCAA Gymnastics season is officially over, and a new reigning champion, the Oklahoma Sooners, has been crowned. Congrats to KJ Kindler & Co., as they were the best team on the day. How do we know that? Oh, maybe because they were the only team of the four competing who had every routine shown? Before […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about 4/20 the NFL Draft, which starts in a few days. And it could be a fun time to be a Mizzou fan with rooting interest in the NFL. While only one of Mizzou’s eligible draftees has an outside shot at getting drafted on the first evening […]
Welcome to the 2026 Transfer Portal season. The portal is officially open and the information is about to start flowing. We’ve got an amended roster count, and it’s a lot lighter than it was just a few days ago. That isn’t a surprise, the portal is easy to get into. For players, coaches, and fans. […]
With Missouri baseball hoping to grab at least one win in the series, the Tigers came up just short, battling to the finish in their final game against Oklahoma on Sunday, April 19.

Despite coming into the game with momentum from a strong 5-0 win on Saturday that forced a rubber match, Mizzou Softball couldn’t get it done against No. 25 South Carolina, falling 4-0 on Sunday in Columbia as the Tigers’ playoff tunnel becomes narrower. The star of the show was South Carolina pitcher Jori Heard, who also […]
The Missouri Tigers, desperately in need of wins and running out of season to get them, picked up a pivotal 5-0 shutout victory against no. 25 South Carolina (25-21) on Saturday evening in CoMo to move to 24-23 and 7-10 in the SEC (10th place) on the season. Because teams must be .500 to be […]
After a sudden loss for Missouri baseball, highlighted by Jase Woita’s 3-for-4 performance with two home runs, three RBIs and two runs scored, the Tigers returned looking for revenge. However, Mizzou’s offense was held to just two hits, and they were unable to defeat Oklahoma on Saturday, April 18. Kehlenbrink’s 10 K Outing Brady Kehlenbrink […]
Under the lights at Azusa Pacific University and through a full day of action in Lincoln, Missouri track & field showed its strength from the coast to the Midwest on Saturday, April 18. While the Bryan Clay Invitational stretched late into the California night, and the Big Red Classic delivered an all-day showcase, both meets […]
Missouri baseball dropped the series opener of its weekend three-game series against No. 14-ranked Oklahoma on Friday evening. Despite the multitude of homers, including a pair from first basemen Jase Woita and one from Blaize Ward, strong fourth and seventh inning offensive splurges from the Sooners drove them to a 9-6 winner over the Tigers […]
It’s been a bit of an eventful week for the Mizzou Basketball team. On Monday, Tennessee transfer post Jaylen Carey committed to the Tigers. Then on Tuesday, Providence transfer wing Jamier Jones did the same. Not to be outdone, then Kansas transfer post Bryson Tiller cross the border to commit to the good guys. Missouri […]
The Missouri track & field team returned to the Bryan Clay Invitational for the first time since 2024, trading Midwest spring for the warm, sun-soaked skies of California. Day one started up Thursday, April 16, as three Mizzou athletes wasted no time delivering top performances on the track. Alongside this meet, the Tigers started their […]
Things were firing on all cylinders early for Mizzou. Stefania Abruscato and Abby Hay each launched home runs to give the Tigers a 2-0 lead through the first inning. But the offense faded after that outburst, scoring no runs in the final six innings. South Carolina slowly chipped away at the lead, eventually taking the […]

After a brief break in the action, Missouri’s track and field team are back and ready to hit the track. The Tigers return to competition this weekend with athletes spread across two different meets, the premier Bryan Clay Invitational and the always-competitive Big Red Classic. The bulk of the squad will head to Lincoln, Neb., […]
Fire up Mr. Brightside! Boy, it’s a rare situation for us to be celebrating a Kansas player, but in this case it’s at least a former KU player. But for every story, it’s not often how you begin but how you end, and now it’s official that Bryson Tiller will no longer be remembered as […]
With the current transitory nature of college athletics, vibes can shift dramatically from year to year, season to season and even month to month. Programs that finished 2025 on a high note may have flopped in the portal. Programs that bottomed out last year may have had a big-time recruiting haul or hired a new […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Softball In a huge midweek game on Wednesday night, the Border War (I’ll never call it the “Border Showdown”) goes to Mizzou Softball as Larissa Anderson’s Tigers prevailed in Lawrence with a 4-2 victory. A two-run shot by COMO native Abby Hay in the Top […]
Abby Hay put the team, Mizzou and the entire city of Columbia on her back, hitting a go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning as Mizzou softball defeated kU 4-2 in Lawrence. Hay was a productive bat all game, recording three hits and two RBI. She scored Abby Carr, who had a productive day in […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we are talking about Mizzou Basketball! It was a slow day for Mizzou Athletics (in that there were no games), but five star commit Jason Crowe Jr. made history becoming the first Mizzou Basketball player to land a collegiate shoe deal. Crowe is one of the highest-rated recruits that […]
If it felt as though the transfer portal was off to a slow start, blame the stealth like approach Dennis Gates has taken each of the last two years. But the tremors of noise around Mizzou’s interest in Providence transfer wing Jamier Jones has been the one constant. A report from On3 confirmed Jones will […]
If someone on the street walked up to you and said “name the biggest issue Missouri’s defense has faced over the past three years” and gave you five seconds to answer, you’d probably respond “allowing big plays”. If you read anything I’ve written over the same time frame, you’d probably be able to dial down […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Basketball We keep hearing the names of Providence transfer Jamier Jones and kansas transfer Bryson Tiller floating around as possible portal additions. Both have recently visited Missouri and have connections to Tim Fuller. Though on Monday evening, Mizzou Basketball got their offseason started with an […]
The college wrestling transfer portal opened April 1. The first move involving Mizzou wrestling was Zeke Seltzer (141lbs) entering the portal April 10. That likely signaled that the Tigers had made contact with a proven talent to bring in from the portal. Enter Zan Fugitt – the first transfer commitment for Brian Smith this offseason […]
It’s your first surprise of the portal season! Much of the noise around Missouri and the transfer portal has been around Bryson Tiller and Jamier Jones, but sometimes Dennis Gates likes to sneak in a surprise addition, and this time he kept the Tigers pursuit of a former Tennessee Volunteer under wraps. Tonight Jaylen Carey, […]
