It’s satisfyingly cyclical to witness high school prospects pledging their commitment to Mizzou at the same time as current Tigers are making their NFL aspirations a reality.
Amidst the Tigers’ impressive NFL draft results, head coach Eli Drinkwitz has continued to excel on the recruiting front. The recent commitment of St. Louis-area linebacker Jason King on Saturday afternoon marked the third commitment of the week and the fourth within eight days.
Beginning with Matt Zollers, King represents the fourth consecutive defensive commitment and the second linebacker in the class, following Dante McClellan.
