Moving on up: Mizzou grabs 2016 commitment No. 10, sixth this month

Gary Pinkel and the Mizzou Tigers are getting the hang on this crucial element called recruiting in the SEC.

The two-time defending Eastern Division champs secured their sixth verbal commitment in less than two weeks on Thursday after three-star guard Mackenzie Nworah announced his 2016 intentions via Twitter.

Missouri’s 2014-15 recruiting classes included just two Texas players (none this year); Tigers have two Texas commits over the last few days

Mizzou on a commitment surge lately. Nworah gives MU 10 for 2016. Average SEC class has 10.6 as of today.
