Recruiting Reset: Jack Marquard can help Mizzou build for the future
What do we know about Eli Drinkwitz thus far in his Mizzou career? We know he loves a good, albeit convoluted, recruiting hash tag. He’s a Diet Coke man. He’s not afraid of making some noise with a microphone in his face. And he loves putting together a good running game. And to do the […]

Commute: Transfer Portal Additions for Mizzou’s Diamond Sports
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we’re talking about Mizzou Diamond Sports. It was a busy Monday for Mizzou’s diamond sports as far as transfer portal additions go. Softball is in desperate need of pitching — and the coaching staff has landed South Carolina’s Nealy Lamb. The junior, per 64 Analytics, was rated as the no. […]

Mizzou Softball program news continues to trickle out this offseason — on June 9 they announced the addition of Ohio State hitting coach Matthew Guemmer, which I wrote about here — and on Sunday evening, head coach Larissa Anderson and pitching coordinator Connor Mammola sent out complementary bat signals. Who would it be? Given Connor’s […]
Rest in Peace Aldon Smith, the man who was more than we saw on the news
Until this afternoon – Sunday, June 14, that is – I’d never considered writing an obituary. Not even for one second. I suspect I’ll be pretty bad at it. But this is my 1,900th post for Rock M Nation (true story), and I suppose there’s a first time for everything. Aldon Smith died this weekend. […]

Mizzou Hoops Player Review: T.O. Barrett
If T.O. Barrett had entered the transfer portal after his freshman season, I doubt there would be many who would have blinked. After all he only saw action in 19 games, rarely played more than a handful of minutes when he did play, and was sitting behind Anthony Robinson II on the depth chart. That’s […]

Commute: Texas Tech continues to do the wrong thing
The Brendan Sorsby debacle is as ugly of a chapter as we’ve seen yet. We haven’t talked much about the Sorsby thing here, most of the time we tend to just focus on Mizzou. But this story has ripples that are going to extend all the way through to the corners of the football. You […]

Recruiting Reset: Is Kobe Rhymes the next great tackling machine?
If you ask me there are two important things to do in football if you want to win games: This is my simple diagnosis of what makes a good football team. And Kobe Rhymes, one of Mizzou’s most recent additions to the 2027 class, could certainly help on the latter front. Playing both middle linebacker […]

We’re back with our second round of TTOP for the 2026 season. This summer we’ll be exploring the top 10 offensive and defensive players Mizzou football is slated to face this fall. We’re not ranking them 1-10, it’s much more scientific then that (or linguistic since we are just ordering them alphabetically.) So far, we’ve […]

Are Jaylen Carey and Bryson Tiller ready to roll for Missouri?
It was a scenario right out of a teaching tape. During the first possession of the second half against Princeton, Kansas freshman Bryson Tiller set a clean screen for Tre White at the top of the arc. To keep White from turning the corner, forward Malik Abdullahi played at the level. Almost instantly, Tiller slipped […]
Commute: Mizzou Football continues adding to 2027 class
Welcome to the Morning Commute Today we are talking about Mizzou Football! Mizzou secured another commitment, this time in form of a flip from Michigan from 2027 offensive lineman Tristan Dare.

Mizzou Softball completes coaching staff with Ohio State assistant Guemmer
It’s been another weird offseason for the Missouri Tigers softball team. Just as quickly as Jason Gwyn was brought in May 2025, he was gone. Sir, we barely knew ye, but your impact was felt in CoMo. Gwyn was largely responsible for accumulating the yet-to-be-signed Class of 2027 talent as the recruiting coordinator, and was […]
Mizzou flips commitment of 2027 OL Tristan Dare
