Now another highly rated 2018 recruit that had committed elsewhere appears to be leaning toward decommitting and going to Missouri..
4-star big man Carte'are Gordon, who was considering Illinois at one time, committed to St. Louis University way back in October, 2016. But suddenly he is hinting he will switch to Missouri-
Something very funny is happening for all these recruits who had verbally committed (some had even signed) elsewhere, and are now going to Missouri instead since they hired Cuonzo Martin-
> 5-star 2017 recruit Michael Porter, Jr. was committed and had signed an NLI to attend Washington, but then asked for and was granted a release, and switched to Missouri
> His brother, 4-star recruit Jontay Porter, who used to be a 2018 recruit, was also verbally said to be going to Washington, but he too changed his mind, reclassified to 2017, and committed to Missouri
> Jeremiah Tilmon, another 5-star big man from the class of 2017, had committed to and signed a NLI to attend Illinois. But last April, he also asked for and was given his release, only to quickly switch to Missouri
> Blake Harris, a 6'3" guard is a 3 or 4-star, Top 100 recruit, depending on which recruiting service you check, from the class of 2017. He was another kid who was previously committed and signed to the University of Washington. But he also asked for and was granted a release from his NLI, and eventually switched to Missouri.
> Javon Pickett is a 6'4" guard who was a 3/4 star recruit from the class of 2017. He also was committed and signed to Illinois, but last April he asked for and was granted his release, and then verbally committed to Missouri. He has reclassified to a 2018 recruit while he attends prep school for an extra year at Sunrise Christian Academy in Wichita, Kansas.
> And now Torrence Watson, another 6'4" 3/4-star shooting guard from the class of 2018. He verbally committed to Ohio State on Julu 10 this year, then decommitted 6 weeks later. Now he verbally commits to Missouri for next year.
> And now 2018 big man recruit Carte'are Gordon, who is verbally committed to St. Louis University is hinting he might be ready to decommit and switch to Missouri.
I am sure that easily sets an all time record for the number of recruits poached from other's schools commits.
That makes 6 highly rated recruits that were committed to other schools, 4 of the 6 were signed to NLI's to other schools, who all were enticed to switch to Missouri in just the past 4 months, and perhaps a 7th recruit ready to switch if Carte'are Gordon goes through with it. It sure seems to me there may be some sleazy tampering going on at Missouri. But surely the fine boosters there would never do such a thing, would they?.
