Mark down the night of January 14, 2025 as one of the best for Mizzou Athletics in recent memory.

Around 7:30 p.m., the news broke that former Georgia edge rusher Damon Wilson would be transferring to Missouri, the top-rated prospect available in the transfer portal. He becomes Missouri's 16 addition through the portal this season.

A half hour later, Missouri basketball tipped off against No. 5 Florida, a game the Tigers would eventually win 83-82. It was Missouri's first road win over a top-5 opponent since 2012.

To recap both events, reporters for Missouri Tigers On SI Joey Van Zummeren, Michael Stamps and Chase Gemes discussed their thoughts in a new episode of the "All Things Mizzou" podcast.
