St. Louis wide receiver picks Mizzou, adding to Tigers’ list of 2019 in-state commits

Missouri football wasn’t scheduled to kick off until the evening, but the Tigers got off to a fast start Saturday: Wide receiver CJ Boone announced his commitment to Barry Odom’s program.

“If someone would have told me I was going to end up playing college football when I started playing football as a freshman, I would have never believed them,” Boone said in an Instagram video. “I’ve been through a long journey and process, and I want to thank my family, my coaches,my teammates and my friends, and then most importantly my mom, who sacrificed the most to get me where I am today.
