The Morning Commute for July 7, 2025.
Welcome to the Morning Commute
Today we’re talking about some updates on the hoops recruiting trail.
Yesterday, Joe Tipton at On3 broke a little story that had Mizzou fans a-buzzing.
Kentucky is no longer seen as the frontrunner for 5⭐️ Jason Crowe Jr., with another SEC school now gaining serious momentum.

If you’re a bit surprised that the Tigers are suddenly being name-dropped for a Top 10 overall recruit in the 2026 class… well, you’re not the only one. Our writers put together a quick discussion board on Rock M+, and even they admit this development was a bit of a eye-raiser.
This is a brand new name that just popped up recently. I’d go as far as saying it’s caught us by surprise. The article by Joe Tipton goes as far as saying Mizzou is the leader.
However in digging around I have heard there’s a connection… [redacted.]
Sorry to cut you off, but that’s all you’re getting here. You’re happy to join us over at Rock M+ for more, including a full scout of Crow from our very own Matt Harris. Come on, would it be a Rock M basketball forum without several tables of data?
Yesterday at Rock M and Rock M+
Who’s ready to sit on their couch for 24 hours, delighting in the year that was Mizzou Athletics?!
To prepare for you for the best 24-hour period of the summer, I’m outlining each of the events on the schedule in order, why you SHOULD tune in, and sharing snippets (with links, of course) of what our fine folks at Rock M Nation said about it.
Personally? I’m ready to catch that Oklahoma win again. At least the last quarter.
