- Bell was suppose to take an official visit to Missouri this upcoming weekend, but it doesn't appear that is going to happen now. I chatted with him tonight and he said he hasn't heard from the coaches about finalizing an official visit. That likely means the coaching staff is going to focus their efforts towards the JUCO and grad transfer markets to fill out the rest of their offensive line needs.
Bell has always openly said Auburn was one of his top schools throughout his recruiting process and now he's saying they are his top school coming off an official visit there this past weekend. Louisville and Florida State are other schools that are going to take a shot with Bell going forward, but as of now it looks like Mizzou has bowed out of a race that looks like it will be hard to win unless your Auburn.
- Caught up with Matute tonight, who told me he had a really good two hour meeting with offensive line coach Brad Davis today at his school. He also confirmed that he will be taking an official visit to Missouri this weekend. The JUCO product has offers from Coastal Carolina, Liberty, Eastern Kentucky, and UMass currently. He is also receiving interest from Georgia Tech, Tulsa, La Tech, UAB, and Middle Tennessee.
- Miami offensive guard Hayden Mahoney is one of the recent graduate transfers to enter the esteemed transfer portal. We've heard that Missouri is going to reach out and see if their is mutual interest on his end. Mahoney started 10 games for the Hurricanes last year at both right and left guard, so needless to say, he's going to be a very hot commodity.
