Forward Mark Mitchell will return to Missouri instead of transferring to Kentucky following a court battle and a strong statement from the Southeastern Conference.
Mitchell committed to on August 22 but the SEC took a stand against the timing of him transferring to an intraconference program.
As a result, Mitchell will play another season for the Tigers.
