COLUMBIA, Mo. — Less than a week after Missouri fired basketball coach Cuonzo Martin, Aidan Shaw, the highest-rated player the Tigers had signed in four years, announced he wants to consider other options. The four-star forward from Overland Park, Kansas, has been released from his letter of intent to play for Mizzou and has re-opened his recruitment, he said Thursday on social media.
Shaw posted on Twitter: “Thank you Mizzou, the coaching staff, team, and fan base for all the love I have received throughout my recruitment process. Due to recent events and with with (SIC) the support of my family, I have requested and received my release from the University of Missouri in order to reopen my recruitment.
