COLUMBIA, Mo. – In a stunning turn of events (not really), new Missouri football coach Eliah Drinkwitz was pleased with his first recruiting class after MU put the final touches on its class of 17 additions on Wednesday, the start of the traditional national signing period. MU announced five high school recruits who submitted their national letters of intent, to go along with two transfers announced in recent days and the 10 high school recruits who signed in December.
Meeting with reporters Wednesday, Drinkwitz talked about the “OH MY GOD!” heard around the Internet earlier in the day, the addition of a proven Power 5 wide receiver, his staff’s commitment to future in-state prospects and even took a jab at a certain SEC West school that now employs his predecessor as defensive coordinator.
