Ran out of characters in the other thread so starting a new one. Make sure to catch up on all of Monday and Tuesday's news (and there was a lot) if you haven't:
As we expected Vandy commit Adam Sparks got an in-home visit from AJ Ofodile and Greg Brown last night. Sparks visited Wake Forest recently and will take his OV to Mizzou this weekend. Our intel is that Missouri stands a decent chance to flip him.
It is our information that Ofodile was going to see Chris Turner last night while in Louisiana as well, but Turner did not return messages last night, so I can't confirm that at this point in time.
Isaiah Miller in home tonight
On the Chris Turner visit, from what I'm hearing, things went well and I believe there is much more optimism that Turner sticks with Mizzou than there may have initially been coming out of the Arkansas visit.
Zion Debose is supposed to be getting a visit tonight.
Tiger commit Case Cook told me he'll have his official visit January 20th. Interesting they had five commits in last week, we know of 4-5 in late January, but I don't have any commits among the visitors this week. I'll go back and double check, but don't have any on the list as of now.
Hear that Andy Hill was on the Kansas side today checking in at Butler County CC where Octavious Morgan goes to school.
Something I just thought of on Caleb Perry. The other school that offered him the same day Missouri did was Cincinnati. There had been some talk that Perry was going to visit Cincy this weekend, but the Bearcats are currently without a coach since Tobby Tuberville stepped down this week. Can't hurt Mizzou's chances.
Seems a little like the calm before the storm right now. Between visit weekends, just kind of waiting to see if/when news will break. Obviously Heupel and Ford are in Florida, Cross was in Memphis last night, Ofodile and Brown were in Louisiana last night and Ofodile in NC tonight. Doing our best to track down the other coaches.
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8
I saw that Caleb Perry had an in home with Washington State last night. At this point, I still don't know if/when he has an official visit set up. That's the school Mizzou most needs to keep an eye on for Perry.
Still waiting on an announcement from Larry Rountree. At this point, it will come when it comes.
Went through last weekend's visitors to see what this weekend would hold for them:
JJ Holmes has committed to Kansas (he wasn't going to be able to get eligible in the SEC anyway from what I am told)
Jordan Ulmer is visiting Minnesota
Isaiah Miller is visiting Tennessee
Will keep you up to date on any developments today and will have a full visitor breakdown in the Chamber tomorrow.
So this happened
Why do you care? Benjamin was one of four backs for 2-3 spots at Mizzou. An offer from the Longhorns makes it seem pretty likely to me he stays in the Lone Star State. That means you have Perry, Miller and Rountree left. I think Missouri would take all three if they wanted to commit. Not positive on that, but that's my belief. They've always wanted at least two backs in this class but think they would be good with three.
Clear Creek TX cornerback Noah Daniels (a former Baylor commit) is announcing his decision at 4 p.m. Next Sunday. Daniels has a top five that includes Mizzou, but he hasn't been to campus so far as we know and visited Oklahoma last weekend, so logic says he's going to be a Sooner.
Just heard back from Zion Debose. He did not have a home visit last night, but AJ Ofodile was at his school yesterday.
Will keep you posted throughout the week here.
