Finals are the name of the game on the Mizzou campus and as the weather warms, so too does the high school recruiting trail for college football coaches. Or at least, it usually does. The spring transfer portal is closed and after a fairly active period of portal pulls for the Mizzou staff, all of their recruiting attention has ostensibly turned to the high school ranks where rising seniors are ripe for the picking. Yet, to date, Eli Drinkwitz and company only have three high school commitments for the class of 2026, which is a far cry from the haul they had made at this time last year.
Will slow and steady win the football recruiting race?
