After big recruiting week, Missouri football to hold potentially class-defining group of visitors

Three more players chose the Tigers last week, and that might just be the appetizer.

Missouri football secured three commitments last week after hosting sizable groups of Class of 2025 prospects on official visits over various weekends in the past month.

Four-star offensive guard Henry Fenuku kicked MU’s week off by committing Monday, June 10; three-star safety Dyllon Williams out of Demopolis, Alabama, chose coach Eli Drinkwitz’s Tigers a day later; and four-star running back Jamarion Morrow out of Germantown, Tennessee, pledged Friday night to wrap up a strong week on the trail.

Now, an even more jam-packed weekend of OVs is on deck.

More than a dozen recruits are expected to be in Columbia beginning Friday — the Tigers’ largest single gathering of prospects this year.

If all goes to plan, it could wind up being one of Missouri’s all-time recruiting weekends.

Mizzou is working to capitalize on an 11-2, Cotton Bowl-winning 2023 campaign that put the Tigers among the top-10 teams in the season-ending polls — a spot they look sure to hold when 2024’s preseason rankings are released.

Morrow had official visits, per Rivals, to Alabama and Texas A&M. Fenuku had an official visit with Ohio State. Both chose Missouri, which appears to have forged itself into a main player on the recruiting trail.

Here’s an updated glance at how the Tigers have fared in the 2025 recruiting cycle — their first opportunity to make the most of their recent on-field success — and who they have their eye on to round out this class:
