Mizzou’s 2024 recruiting class is down to 3 pledges with a blue-chip lineman deciding to instead play in the Pac-12.
Tionne Gray took to Twitter on Thursday to announce that he has decommitted from the home-state Tigers. He is now pledged to play for Dan Lanning’s Oregon program.

It was less than a month ago (March 18) when Gray announced he was “staying home” to play for Mizzou. He visited Oregon this past weekend, and that apparently sealed a flip for the Ducks.

From St. Louis, Gray is out of Hazelwood Central. He is listed at 6-6, 295 pounds. On the 247Sports composite rankings, Gray is rated 4-stars, the No. 9 Missouri product, No. 34 defensive lineman and No. 327 prospect overall nationally in the 2024 recruiting class. Gray was the highest-ranked commitment in MU’s 2024 class.
We’ll see what’s next for the Tigers as Eli Drinkwitz and his staff look to find another defensive lineman.
