Billingsley’s commitment comes on the heels of Missouri’s biggest commitment of the 2020 class, when four-star linebacker Antonio Doyle committed to the Tigers on Saturday night. While Billingsley is technically Missouri’s third out-of-state commitment in this class, he’s also the sixth commitment from the St. Louis metro area — again, an unbelievable turnaround for Barry Odom’s recruiting momentum.
In 2017 and 2018, Missouri didn’t sign any recruits from the St. Louis area.
