Missouri State football landed a 2024 in-state quarterback prospect who is still tapping into his potential.
Lee's Summit North quarterback Elijah Leonard announced his commitment to the Bears via Twitter on Tuesday evening.
Leonard is a 6-foot-4, 216-pounder who split reps behind center last season for a Lee's Summit North squad that finished second in Class 6. The Broncos also host a pair of top prospects including five-star defensive lineman Williams Nwaneri who is arguably the No. 1 player in the 2024 class. He throws to four-star 2025 wide receiver Isaiah Mozee.
Leonard held offers from South Dakota and Lindenwood and had interest from Kansas State and Iowa State.
