Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Football Recruiting After the reports of Ole Miss quarterback Austin Simmons expected to transfer to Mizzou, it’s been an otherwise slow start to the transfer portal activity for Eli Drinkwitz and the staff.

Nothing like starting off the newest transfer class with a luxury add rather than an addition in desperate need… not that we’d know of course. Because Mizzou is certainly in desperate need of support in multiple positions. Of those positions, cornerback might be the most pressing. The corner room in Columbia is about as empty […]

Earlier this season, Auburn’s defense held Missouri to just 17 points in regulation during an eventual 23-17 win for MU in double overtime. Now, a key piece of that defense will sign with Mizzou out of the transfer portal, according to a report from On3’s Hayes Fawcett. Robert Woodyard Jr. made 11 starts for Auburn […]

It maybe transfer portal season, but Eli Drinkwitz and the staff have added to their 2026 recruiting class via a high school commitment that has flipped his decision. How about a St. Louis native that was originally committed to Iowa State? Jocques Felix — a three-star defensive lineman from Cardinal Ritter High School has announced […]

In front of a really nice crowd of 2,342 — I honestly thought there were more fans on hand than that — on Sunday afternoon at Mizzou Arena, the no. 7 Missouri Tigers, wearing Legacy M, started their season off impressively strong against the (RV) Iowa State Cyclones, showcasing depth up and down the lineup […]

As much as it may not look like it based on the work you’ve seen of mine over the past semester, I don’t always make athletes look the prettiest. This week’s column is in honor of all those “awkward” moments where effort takes precedence over aesthetics. All these photos are untouched and exactly as they […]

After missing the NCAA Tournament in a disappointing 2025 season, the Mizzou volleyball team is prepped for an important offseason. Between the graduation of high-level talents like Maya Sands, Tyrah Ariail and Caylen Alexander and the unpredictability of the transfer portal, head coach Dawn Sullivan has the opportunity to fill some team holes using said […]

I saw a lot of Godfather references in various comment sections around the Mizzou internet following the conclusion of the game against Florida… “just when I thought I was out…” If you want my full thoughts on the impact of the game, I’d suggest checking out yesterday’s Pourover column, as that was more about what […]

Chip Lindsey is Missouri’s newest offensive coordinator and I am extremely skeptical of this hire. To put it nicely. In order to show you why I think this/talk myself into this hire, I’m going to review his resume and offer a break out of how he’s done at each job he’s had previously. I am […]

Upsets have defined the past few days of women’s college basketball. Since the New Year, five AP top-15 teams have fallen, with four of them losing to unranked opponents. On Sunday, Mizzou couldn’t add itself to the list, dropping a road tilt to No. 11 Kentucky 74-52. Against one of the top scoring defenses in […]

It’s been a while, Mizzou fans, so enjoy it. I don’t want to pull anyone down with a reminder of the recent past, but it’s been since February 19th of last year (Alabama) since Missouri won a big game. In fact they only have three top 100 wins since then. South Carolina, Mississippi State, and […]

Trailing by three in the final 15 seconds of the first half, Missouri men’s basketball got the ball to an unlikely hero for the final shot of the opening 20 minutes.

Any scouting report Missouri assembled ahead of Braggin’ Rights could have made a reasonable tradeoff: quarantine the lane and force Illinois to scratch out a living from long range. Coming in, the Illini’s shooting clip off the catch lagged behind the national average, and Brad Underwood’s squad had only shot better than 35 percent twice […]

Last season you could write an opus teasing the opening of the SEC Conference play. In the long history of college basketball, and the SEC in particular, no conference had ever been so good. At the top, and the middle, and even the bottom of the league, everyone was quality. Oklahoma finished 6-12 in the […]
