Previous Posts Jan. 21: Tulsa quarterback Micah Wilson commits to Mizzou

From his commitment post:

Micah Wilson had just decommitted from Boise State after being committed since April. The son of a Curtis Wilson, who lettered at center for the Tigers from 1987-88 and was drafted by the Patriots, and played alongside Andy Lock, the father of current Mizzou quarterback Drew Lock.

Apparently, he grew up idolizing Chase Daniel.

ESPN:

Stands tall in the pocket and demonstrates positive pocket movement to extend plays. Does not get flustered and can buy time through his sliding around. Consistently scans the defense prior to making a decision.

With Maty Mauk's dismissal and the transfer of Eddie Printz, Mizzou desperately needed to land at least one quarterback in this class. Wilson will pretty quickly become a top understudy.
