While Mizzou Twitter was in the dumps after another loss by the men’s basketball team, this time to West Virginia, on Saturday, the football team had something brewing.
Damon Hazelton Jr. first Tweeted a picture with Missouri graphics, then followed it up about 30 minutes later with the single word, “Committed!” which means Eliah Drinkwitz just nailed down a graduate transfer receiver from Virginia Tech.
Hazelton started his career at Ball State, where he caught 51 passes for 505 yards and four touchdowns as a freshman in 2016. He transferred to Virginia Tech after that season, and transfer rules forced him to sit out 2017.
