There might not be a team in the SEC with a bigger variance between its ceiling and floor than the Tigers, who’ll be one of the youngest teams in the conference. Crowe and Bryant are five-star prospects who’ll need to be stars for them next year, while Tiller and Jones are sophomore breakout candidates after good first years at their previous stops.
The addition of Carey flies under the radar, giving them real size in the SEC. If Crawford and Stansberry can give them some scoring production, Missouri can be a sneaky contender.
