A Blog for Ol' Mizzou
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Women’s Golf! The PGA Championship starts today … but Mizzou Women’s Golf is heading to the NCAA Championships! For just the second time in program history— the Tigers have punched their ticket to the National Championship. It’s their first trip since 2005. All Mizzou needed […]
With the amount of turnover the Tigers have had at the safety position in recent years with players coming and going through the portal, Mizzou looks like they’ve landed a keeper from the high school ranks in three-star safety Keiran Govan. Govan hails from Republic, Missouri in the southwestern part of the state and is […]
Earlier Report: Mizzou running back Ahmad Hardy is in stable condition after suffering a gunshot wound early Sunday morning at a concert in Mississippi. Hardy underwent surgery, according to a statement released by Mizzou Athletics. The statement added Hardy’s timeline for a return to playing football is unknown, though a report from ESPN’s Pete Thamel […]
With portal season winding down, Missouri still had two items on its shopping list: a ball handler inclined to facilitate and a floor spacer whose shot keeps defenses from packing the paint. On Tuesday, the program filled the shooting need with South Dakota guard Jordan Crawford’s commitment, which came one day after an official visit […]
Eli Drinkwitz and his staff have never been shy about utilizing the portal. Not the Deion Sanders’ level of “54 new guys in every year” sort of frequency, but certainly to the point where they can add impact transfers to fill in gaps. For example, at the conclusion of a 2021 football season that featured […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about the latest on Ahmad Hardy A very scary situation for Ahmad Hardy. Mizzou’s All-American running back suffered a gunshot wound at a concert in Mississippi early Sunday morning. In what may be the best news possible at this point, Hardy was said to be in stable […]
Blaize Ward’s impactful performance against Vanderbilt this past weekend has been well recognized by the Southeastern Conference. The standout freshman’s 6–for–13 performance with four RBI against the Commodores earned him his second SEC Co-Freshman of the Week award for the 2026 season. The first honor came after the Tigers won their first SEC series of […]
For our second to last column, it’s all about Mizzou baseball’s series against Vanderbilt! Dan covered the first game that spanned two days due to insane fog, I covered the second game which started later and featured a weather delay, and Margo wrapped things up with the third game, which was also senior day. Keep […]
Mizzou Football is up and running with their 2027 recruiting class — and one of their best additions comes from an in-state pledge in the St. Louis area side. Jack Brown, a four-star tight end from Francis Howell Central announced his commitment to Missouri on March 17th as the fourth overall addition of the class. […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about two young former Tigers who are making their way into the NFL. While the Tigers had a healthy number of players drafted a few weeks ago, Zion Young and Josiah Trotter made some noise going back-to-back in the second round to the Ravens and Buccaneers respectively. […]
No delays, no problems. Missouri baseball ran the gauntlet on Sunday afternoon in its 4-1 victory over Vanderbilt at Taylor Stadium. In the final home game at Taylor Stadium, six arms pitched for the Tigers and guided them their first SEC home victory since Apr. 6 2024 against the then- No.4 ranked Florida Gators. It […]
You’ve probably heard the story by now, in the fact that what was first appearing to be a seamless Vanderbilt victory on Friday night turned into possibly the most chaotic Southeastern Conference baseball game of the 2026 season in the span of two half innings. Down 6-1, Mizzou baseball fought its way back from a […]
Coach Sullivan makes her second roster addition of the week, this time through the transfer portal. The Tigers added Utah State middle blocker Lauren Larkin. She spent her first two years with the Aggies, leading the team with 100 blocks in 2024. She was a weapon in the offensive rhythm as well, averaging 1.27 kills […]
A week ago, Mizzou Gymnastics announced that Lacey Rubin, leader of the Bad Ass Beam Queens — a moniker bestowed upon her ferocious Tiger beamers and a name she was pretty sure neither Shannon nor Whitney knew about — would be stepping down from her role after three years with the team. As a huge […]
After their walk-off victory marked the longest Southeastern Conference game of the season, Missouri baseball couldn’t continue to extend its SEC quota over the weekend. The Tigers couldn’t claim game two of the three-game set, and their 11-8 loss against Vanderbilt in eleven innings meant Missouri was unable to snap a long-standing streak: their first […]
The game that felt like it would never end finally got its conclusion. After being down 6-1 heading into the bottom of the eighth inning on May 8, one afternoon later, on May 9, the Tigers (22-26, 5-20 SEC) completed a miraculous comeback in walk-off style to earn a wacky and bizarre fifth Southeastern Conference […]
I’ve covered a lot of sports games over the past 5-6 years. Heck, I’ve covered a lot of strange Mizzou sports events over the past four years. What occurred Friday night was one of the wackiest, most chaotic sports games that I’ve seen, bar none, without a doubt. Fittingly enough, the biggest moment of the […]
When Will Wade left North Carolina State to return to LSU, much was made about his NIL and revenue sharing budget set up to help him build the roster. Last season at NC State, it was rumored Wade was dealing with a roster in the $9-10 million range. LSU was apparently offering $12 million. Why […]
Mizzou baseball returns to Columbia this weekend looking for a needed rest, and its opponent coming into Columbia — the Vanderbilt Commodores — are trying to navigate their own late‑season slide. The Tigers will have to tangle with the Commodores this upcoming week in a three-game weekend set. Mizzou is in search of an SEC […]
On a hot September morning at the Mizzou XC Opener in 2022, Drew Rogers crossed the finish line for the first time in his collegiate career as a promising freshman in a new program. Three years later, at the same meet, he returned as a winner, touching first with a blazing time of 14:48.1. […]
With the landscape of college athletics shifting by the day, Mizzou is setting themselves up for the future as best they can. The episode was launched on YouTube, I encourage everyone to watch. In it, Laird Veatch (our newly extended Athletics Director) talks to John Anderson while construction of the North Endzone continues behind them, […]
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Football Spring football has come and gone, which means we’re in true offseason mode until preseason practice starts back up in August. So, where does Mizzou stand in terms of rankings? The Tigers check into some Top 25 polls. Not that rankings even matter right […]
Dawn Sullivan made a late-time addition to the 2026 roster for Mizzou volleyball, bringing in Ceylin Ruyan. The 6-foot-3 outside hitter is originally from Istanbul, Turkey. Kuyan played on Turkey’s U19 National team, bringing a flare of international experience to the roster. She helped Turkey win a gold medal at the 2025 European Youth Summer […]
The Mizzou Tigers have always been black and gold, but lately they’ve been a little Green as well. That appears like it will continue for at least the next few years as Lee’s Summit North linebacker Caleb Green committed to Eli Drinkwitz and company in late April. The little (much littler) brother of Tigers starting […]
When Kennard Davis Jr. committed last Friday, it ended a two-week lull in Missouri’s offseason overhaul. And while the Tigers still have two scholarships to fill, Davis’ addition offers a natural checkpoint to assess coach Dennis Gates’ work so far. If you go by 247Sports’ rankings, MU assembled the nation’s No. 11 transfer class and, […]
