Demopolis (Ala.) three-star safety Dyllon Williams has committed to Missouri, he announced on Tuesday afternoon.

He chose the Tigers while also holding offers from Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Kentucky, Cincinnati, Texas A&M and UCF.

Williams is the No. 923 overall prospect and No. 66 safety in the 2025 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 34 player in Alabama.

The 6-foot-2 defensive back is the second pledge this week for Eli Drinkwitz and Co. Williams follows Fort Worth (Texas) North Crowley four-star offensive lineman Henry Fenuku, a top-400 prospect who committed on Monday.

Mizzou’s 2025 class now features nine commitments and ranks No. 19 in the nation and No. 10 in the SEC, according to the On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings.

Mizzou keeps rolling on the recruiting trail

The Tigers entered April with zero commitments this cycle. That swiftly changed, as seven prospects made the call in favor of the SEC program in Columbia. None were bigger than Royersford (Pa.) Spring-Ford five-star quarterback Matt Zollers, who kicked things off by committing on April 4.

“My connections at Missouri were just greater than they were anywhere else,” Zollers told On3 upon his commitment.

Since adding the elite gunslinger, the Tigers staff wasted no time adding building blocks around Zollers. Belleville (Ill.) Althoff Catholic three-star defensive lineman Jason Dowell was the next to pledge on April 19. The flood gates opened from there.

Canton (Ohio) McKinley four-star linebacker Dante McClellan and Geismar (La.) Dutchtown three-star EDGE Joshua Lewis each committed on April 22. Eureka (Mo.) four-star offensive tackle Jack Lange — a top-200 overall recruit and the No. 1 prospect in Missouri — followed suit two days later.

“It’s close to home,” Lange told On3. “When I think of what I want in a college town, campus, academics and football, it’s everything that I want and I’m really excited to be a part of it. I’ve been told by Missouri’s coaches that I’m going to be a pillar in this recruiting class. I want to be able to help bring guys in and build this class up to something that’s really special. With me and Matt Zollers, I think we can really turn this thing into something that’s going to be great.”

Saint Louis DeSmet three-star LB Jason King and four-star EDGE Daeden Hopkins rounded out a spectacular month on the trail for the Tigers.
