Mizzou Basketball
Welcome to the Morning Commute
Today we’re talking about Mizzou Hoops
Mizzou Basketball’s transfer portal haul started off with the additions of Jaylen Carey, Jamier Jones, and Bryson Tiller. It’s a good start for Dennis Gates and the staff as they have landed multiple Top-50 ranked players in the portal.
Though with the departure of Jevon Porter — there’s more work to be done with three open roster spots available — and guard play is a question mark.
Sure, five-star Jason Crowe Jr. is coming in, but guard depth is always a necessity. Per reports, Mizzou is looking to address the guard position within the SEC.
LSU’s Jalen Reece is expected to visit Mizzou this week along with Texas A&M and Ohio State.
Reece is a former four-star, Top-100 recruit and ended his freshman season at LSU scoring in double figures in seven out of the last eight games.
Meanwhile, Texas A&M transfer Josh Holloway is expected to visit Mizzou today — with West Virginia, Memphis, and USC also in the mix.
Holloway’s production was limited in his junior season at Texas A&M, but he is coming off a strong performance in the Aggies’ 2nd round NCAA Tournament loss to Houston with 12 points, four rebounds, and three assists.
Per 247Sports, Missouri’s 2026 class ranks 6th overall — but they’re not done yet. Stay tuned to RockM+ for more of our coverage on hoops.
