The Missouri Tigers football program landed another key piece for its 2026 recruiting class on Sunday evening.
Mizzou secured the commitment of four-star offensive lineman Brandon Anderson, according to Hayes Fawcett of On3.
Anderson, a 6-foot-4, 315-pound interior lineman from North Cobb High School in Kennesaw, Georgia, chose MU over Tennessee and North Carolina. He had previously committed to the Volunteers before decommitting in late January.
Rated as the No. 355 overall prospect in the 2026 class by 247Sports’ composite rankings, Anderson also ranked No. 29 among interior offensive linemen and No. 45 overall in the state of Georgia.
He held offers from several other programs, including Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Kentucky and Maryland.
Anderson became the eighth overall and the second offensive line commit in the Tigers’ class of 2026, joining three-star guard Khalief Canty Jr.
Anderson took an official visit to Columbia on June 8 and was recruited by Mizzou offensive line coach Brandon Jones, according to 247Sports.
“I’m ready to work,” Anderson wrote in Fawcett’s X post. “I’m home, Mizzou.”
The commitment continues a strong early recruiting run for Tigers coach Eli Drinkwitz and his staff, who have emphasized building in the trenches.
