We’re getting very close to the day Mizzou Football officially moves into their new home — the South End Zone!
The project is nearing completion and the latest tease video from Mizzou Football’s official twitter account is excellent.

On top of that most excellent video, Mizzou Football and Barry Odom received some good news with the completion of their 2019 recruiting class as Maurice Massey made it too Mizzou.

Massey is an intriguing prospect from Kirkwood, MO, had some additional classwork to complete in Kirkwood — likely due to his transfer of high schools — and is the last member of the recruiting class yet to make it onto campus.

Nolan Wosman was the Quincy Herald-Whig NE Missouri player of the year out of Palmyra, MO and an Arkansas commit since his freshman year. He’s a middle infielder, likely a shortstop, and wasn't drafted so he’s playing in college. And there isn’t a whole lot of news as to what happened, other than this article saying it was kinda on both sides, either way it’s exciting news to keep a good prospect in state.

AND MPJ IS (we think) GOING TO PLAY, EVERYONE!!
We noted last week Jontay was still without a team (not that he’d be playing in summer league), while Jordan Barnett is saddling up with the San Antonio Spurs and Jakeenan Gant gets a tour with the Indiana Pacers. News a couple days ago had former Tiger Kassius Robertson signing up with the guard needy Charlotte Hornets for the summer.
Phil Pressey is looking for a home, as he terminated his contract with a Turkish club over payment issues, so as far as I can tell these are all the Tigers participating in Summer league so far. If you know of something I missed let me know in the comments so we can keep a running count.

I should have included this yesterday but opted to keep it mostly on recruiting instead. Still on Friday Sophie Cunningham had herself a night as her Phoenix Mercury kicked the every loving crap out of the Indiana Fever.
