Tigers Lose Out on Commitment From Jimmy Whitt - Rock M Nation

Why you should NOT panic as a Mizzou fan: Whitt is a great player and a kid that was right under your nose, but Mizzou has a lot of depth, and young depth. Whitt will join a roster in 2015-16, and Mizzou will have 7 players that can play on the perimeter that aren't freshmen. And Mizzou is not done with recruiting. They're still in the mix on Antonio Blakeney

And wouldn't you know it, just after the Whitt commitment, PowerMizzou dropped this bit of news:

Congrats to Nicole!
