JUST IN: Missouri Tigers high profile Star has rejected contract extension,says he wants to leave…
A wave of rumors has engulfed Missouri athletics after reports surfaced that a high-profile Tiger has turned down a lucrative contract extension and expressed intent to leave the program. The identity remains officially unconfirmed, but speculation has been fueled by social media posts pointing toward a significant rejection .
One of the most talked-about instances involves tight end Brett Norfleet, who allegedly declined a massive $6.5 million NIL offer from USC in a bid to remain loyal to Mizzou—only to now reportedly be open to departure . Another notable story cites men’s basketball standout Caleb Grill rejecting a jaw-dropping $7.5 million NIL proposal, reportedly preferring commitments within the program—even amid shifting offseason dynamics .
While basketball news from Mizzou centers on Grill’s continuing loyalty, football has its own storm. Defensive end Jahkai Lang has officially entered the transfer portal after announcing plans to leave the program . Though no exact link ties Lang to the reported extension offer, his departure compounds uncertainty around the program’s top talent.
Missouri Athletics have not issued any formal response. No press releases, coach interviews, or athlete statements have addressed contract status or exit intentions. In the absence of any credible confirmation, these remain speculative until officially verified.
