Missouri Tigers

July Commits

  • 4-star PF Trent Pierce

The Tigers added their second commitment of the 2023 cycle during the month of July in Pierce, a four-star power forward out of Compass Prep in Arizona. A Top 100 player, Pierce combines with three-star guard Anthony Robinson to compose SEC Basketball’s No. 2 ranked 2023 class at the moment behind only Kentucky.

Ole Miss Rebels

July Commits

  • 4-star C Rashaud Marshall 

Ole Miss also added the second commit of their 2023 class during the month of July in Marshall. A four-star center out of Blytheville High School, Marshall is considered as the No. 1 player in the state of Arkansas, and joins a Rebels 2023 class that also includes in-state forward Jacob Gazzo.

Mississippi State Bulldogs

July Commits

  • 3-star C Gai Chol
  • PF Jaquan Scott

The final team as a notable recruiting winner during July, Mississippi State added a total of two commitments to their 2023 class across the last month, the most of any SEC Basketball team. Arguably the headline name of that group is Chol, a three-star seven-foot center, while Scott comes from the JUCO ranks.
