Missouri adds a pair of defensive linemen on National Signing Day to close out 2019 class

Missouri football capped off its 2019 recruiting class on Wednesday with a pair of late additions on defensive line to finish at 25 signees.

The Tigers added defensive end Z’Core Brooks from Dallas and junior-college prospect Sci Martin to address a much-depleted pass rush from the 2018 season.

Brooks has an impressive frame at 6-foot-6 and 220 pounds and chose the Tigers over Oklahoma State and Purdue among others. He’s considered a three-star recruit by most recruiting services.

Martin took a similar path to current Mizzou quarterback Lindsey Scott Jr. after starting his career at LSU and then transferring to East Mississippi State Community College.
