Eli Drinkwitz hires a familiar face for newly created role on Mizzou staff

Last week, Eli Drinkwitz and company created a new role on staff for the upcoming 2026 season. This week, they filled it by hiring a familiar face.

According to Matt Zenitz, Missouri is hiring Tennessee director of player personnel Jake Breske to become the Tigers' President of Player Personnel and Recruiting.

If his name rings a bell, it's because Breske was on Mizzou's recruiting staff from 2016-2021 before leaving for the Vols. Now, he's back and Drinkwitz couldn't be more excited.

"We are thrilled to bring Jake Breske back to our staff," Drinkwitz said in a release.
