Three-star St. Louis LB Jason King commits to Mizzou

There’s something circularly pleasing about watching high school prospects commit to Mizzou while current Tigers are punching their tickets to the NFL.

While the Tigers watched one of their most successful drafts ever, Eli Drinkwitz stayed hot on the recruiting trail. St. Louis-area linebacker Jason King committed on Saturday afternoon, marking the third commitment of the week and the fourth in eight days.

After kicking off the class with Matt Zollers, King is the fourth straight defensive commitment and the second linebacker in the class, following Dante McClellan.
