The Morning Commute for June 16, 2025.
Welcome to the Morning Commute
Today we’re talking about how some of these guys still have it.
The annual Mizzou Hoops alumni game happened this weekend, with former Tigers from both the hardwood and the gridiron squaring off in a matchup between Team Bowers and Team Carroll.
