Reece Davis noted during the ESPNU broadcast today that Gary Pinkel has to be the “happiest man around” as he sees Dorial Green-Beckham sign his scholarship papers. That much is true. Today DGB announced that he was going to be able to “fulfill his dreams to play at the University of Missouri,” making the Tigers faithful very happy along the way while others at Arkansas are likely shaking their heads as they wonder what might have been.
DGB is undoubtedly the best wide receiver recruit in the nation and he’s been called one of the best to come out in years. ESPN has him rated as the No. 3 player in the country.
He immediately joins T.J. Moe in a now-loaded wide receiver corps to team with Henry Josey, the Big 12’s leading rusher until he went down with a season ending knee injury. James Franklin has to be especially pleased knowing he now has an impact downfield talent.
