My guess: He's been approached by Depaul and out of respect for his former coach, he hasn't said :hand:. But it doesn't mean he's going.

Tilmon's 247 CB is still 100% Mizzou.

Which is honestly what I'm expecting to happen. Once the blue bloods get involved, we'll see where we really stand.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to start paying attention to recruiting, er, stop smoking cigarettes

Could there be an eligibility/qualification issue underlying this delay?

Why would he wait to qualify to commit? That's the tiggerboarders excuse for the delay but it does not compute.

Maybe the reason for the lack of OV's.
He took one to Illinois and has 4 left.

Same here. It's kinda mesmerizing.
yeah & they talk Tuggs into going there as well they would have something. I think they also have a couple other former LaLu players there. So there is enough there for some conspiracy theories, but I would still be very surprised.
To be honest, I just want Tilmon to go somewhere besides Misery. I find their fans especially annoying on social media and would love to see their reactions when he doesn't go there.
I realize 247 called Sept. 9th an OV, however there are others, including Scout and Piper that do not list that date as an OV.
The look on her face is priceless.
I had the same look when Cliff pulled the old hat switcheroo...

According to this, Piper said it was an official. Jeremiah, Javon and DaMonte all took their officials the weekend Kris Wilkes was here.

He's had an Official Visit with us. To do that he needs certification account from the NCAA.
You need to be certified by the NCAA Eligibility Center to compete at an NCAA Division I or II school. You also need to be registered with a Certification Account before you can make official visits or sign a National Letter of Intent in Division I or II.

Must be looking at old web page, couldn't find date. Sorry.
Exactly :thumb:
Tilmon may well go to Missouri, but crystal balls don't mean a whole lot, in many cases. Smith was pretty much on his way to Michigan State until a lot of last minute changes. Knox had exactly zero crystal balls for Kentucky.
I will say, if Tilmon is 100% set on Mizzou, he would have committed already. He obviously is not 100% sure, maybe 90% or whatever, &/or there are indeed questions about his eligibility.
CB haven't changed since the day JT decomitted , but alot has changed at Mizzou. They have 2 ships left, and waiting on young Porter to decide what he doing. Porter was to make a choice in last couple days , according to reports, still nothing. Nothing may happen soon , but it would be good to know something. Sure hate for this to drag out till August, BU said he not begging anyone to come here.
so now we have another scholarship open.
lol yep but I think most thought this was going to happen sooner or later, does knock us down in the height a little more though
