Here is a piece by the KC Star's Terez Paylor on the recruitment of Jayson Tatum.
Mizzou makes strong play for Jayson Tatum
Mizzou makes strong play for Jayson Tatum
quote:
“They’re in the mix,” Justin said, when asked specifically about Mizzou. “His grandmother is a big Mizzou fan, and he loves her to death. His auntie is a big KU fan, so you can just imagine what we go through in the household. But I think Mizzou is going to be right at the top of the chart."
quote:
But don’t count out schools in surrounding states, either. Indiana isn’t that far away from St. Louis, and neither is Kentucky, Marquette, Memphis or Ohio State, which Justin said was Jayson’s favorite college team growing up

Who knows where he ends up, but got to say, that's a very encouraging article. They really emphasized the importance it meant to get that first offer from Mizzou so early. The importance of being close can only help as well. Then there's this quote, which if he truly feels this way, there is something within his power to change it.
quote:
“… they don’t get as many St. Louis guys as I or people from St. Louis would like them to, but they have a great program.”
