Missouri ends big weekend by flipping four-star RB from Kentucky

It was a great weekend for the Missouri Tigers, and that was capped off by a huge win for head coach Eliah Drinkwitz and his staff on the recruiting trail.

Marquise Davis, a four-star running back from Cleveland, Ohio (Cleveland Heights), was in attendance on an official visit this past weekend to watch Mizzou beat Arkansas 28-21.

It was the endcap of a 2024 regular season that saw the Tigers go 9-3 and while they likely won't make the College Football Playoffs, they are at least on the edge of contention and being a "bubble" team says a lot about the program Drinkwitz has built in his fifth year in Columbia.

Per Davis, the vibe of the Mizzou program drew him in and made it easy for him to flip from Kentucky.

"I like the culture and how God surrounded they are," Davis told 247Sports .

"I want to keep myself surrounded by good, well-rounded people." BREAKING: Four-Star RB Marquise Davis has Flipped his Commitment from Kentucky to Missouri, he tells me for @on3recruits The 61 205 RB from Cleveland, OH had been Committed to the Wildcats since May Ranked as the No.
