Mizzou News: Will Jeremiah Tilmon be eligible for 2017?
Missouri must have an answer to one big question before basketball season rolls around: Will Jeremiah Tilmon be academically eligible to play for the Tigers?
Prior to his signing with Missouri, concern surrounded Tilmon’s eligibility to play for Missouri due to having low grades. At this time, it seems that Tilmon should be eligible to play in 2017. At the very least, head coach Cuonzo Martin isn’t concerned about his recruit’s eligibility at this point.
That’s great news, since Missouri has been in dire need of a big man holding down center court. At 6′ 10,” Tilmon provides Mizzou greater size, speed, and the ability to cover the floor for the Tigers.
