Eli Drinkwitz’s first full recruiting class, the 2021 class, was a good one. I’m giving him a bit of a mulligan for the 2020 class since he took the job in late 2019 and had to duct tape together the recruiting class. But for the 2021 class, Drinkwitz hit the ground running and secured commitments from 16 different players before the month of July started. The 2022 class had 10 commitments before July. The 2023 class had just 7 commits.
Before Friday, June 30th... Missouri had just three commitments, and one of those hit in mid-June with Tennessee quarterback, Aidan Glover.
