Three days, three four-star pledges.
Missouri football’s hot streak on the recruiting trail continued into Saturday, as the Tigers landed a verbal commitment from four-star offensive tackle Lamont Rogers ahead of some sturdy competition. Rogers announced his decision during a live stream on his Instagram account.

The offensive tackle out of Mesquite, Texas, ranks as the No. 55 overall prospect in the nation and as the No. 7 overall player at his position, per the recruiting service 247Sports’ composite rankings.
For those counting, that means Missouri has now lured three of the top-100 prospects in the nation in the Class of 2025.

Three players along the Missouri football offensive line will run out of eligibility at the end of the season: presumed starting left tackle and SMU transfer Marcus Bryant; starting guard Cam’Ron Johnson; and backup center Drake Heismeyer.
