Rivals has him in the top 100 at 93. A 4-star kid out of STL MO. These are the kids Mizzou should be grabbing every year.
I'm hoping that MPJ kills it and other 5-star recruits see they can be the marquee player here for a season then move on (being realistic that they would jump to the NBA). I will be moving back to Columbia this fall, and look forward to being able to go to some games for once. [Reply]

I will be getting to some games this year for the first time in a long while. [Reply]
Well I would always prefer first or last. Last would be ideal, IMO but it never hurts to get the first shot at a kid either.
Then again, I can't recall a highly touted recruit ever NOT taking all his official visits just because it's fun to be pursued (and to fuck as many 'tutors' as you'd like). [Reply]

Nobody calls a presser to say they're asking to be let out of their LOI.
