I\u2019m HOME! — \u271e Williams Nwaneri Nwaneri (6-foot-5, 250 pounds) is not only ranked No. 1 at his position, he’s first overall in the state of Missouri and No. 3 nationally<\/a> in his class behind Dylan Raiola and Jeremiah Smith.<\/p>\n According to Hayes Fawcett at On3<\/a>, Nwaneri says he has a good relationship with the coaches at Missouri.<\/p>\n \u201cReally how comfortable I was with the coaching staff. Knowing that I\u2019ll have the opportunity to come in and have a chance to play as a freshman was also big and to do it at home makes it even better… I\u2019m pretty close with Coach Drink and Coach Peoples. We talk often, almost everyday. They see me fitting into the defense rushing off the edge and maybe drop me into coverage sometimes.\u201d<\/p>\n Thirty-three other programs made Nwaneri offers<\/a>, including Georgia, Oklahoma, Oregon, Tennessee and Alabama.<\/p>\n The Tigers’ class of 2024 now has 12 hard commits<\/a>, of which Nwaneri is the only five-star recruit so far. This group ranks No. 55 in the nation.<\/p>\n More football stories<\/strong><\/p>\n 2024 National Recruiting Rankings: Updated top 25 teams<\/a><\/p>\n![\"\ud83d\udc2f\"](\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/14.0.0\/72x72\/1f42f.png\")
