The revolving door continues for Missouri basketball. But on Tuesday, it turned in the Tigers’ favor.

Noah Carter, a 6-foot-6 combo forward from Dubuque, Iowa, who averaged 15.0 points and 4.1 rebounds for Northern Iowa last season, announced via Twitter that he’s transferring to Missouri. He has two years of eligibility remaining.

“I’m part of a bigger plan, God’s plan,” Carter wrote on his social media account. “I’m happy to announce my commitment to play at the University of Missouri.”

According to PowerMizzou.com, Carter’s final list also included Florida, Arkansas, Marquette and Virginia Tech.

A day earlier, the Tigers picked up another transfer. Cleveland State’s Tre Gomillion followed his former coach, Dennis Gates, to Missouri.

Gomillion is a 6-4 guard from Augusta, Georgia, who averaged 10.5 points and shot 40% on three-pointers last season. He has one year of eligibility remaining.

Earlier in the week, Javon Pickett, a starter who averaged 11.1 points for Mizzou last season, announced he was transferring to St. Louis University.
