Four-star WR from East St. Louis flips commitment to Missouri

Eli Drinkwitz’s success as a recruiter has been well-documented on this website — including as early as this morning. We’ve reached conclusions that Eli Drinkwitz has elevated Missouri’s profile, attracting more top tier talent while simultaneously locking down the borders in a way that we haven’t seen this century.

We didn’t need any more proof that Drinkwitz has done these things. Grabbing Tyler Macon, Taj Butts, Ryan Hoerstkamp and Travion Ford in six weeks would’ve been enough. Starting off the 2022 in-state class with blue-chipper Isaac Thompson would have been enough.

But Drinkwitz, the giver of good gifts, has seen fit to bless us once more, winning another huge recruiting battle on Friday.
