Anton Beard Decommits From Missouri Tigers

Point Guard, Anton Beard, from Little Rock, AR committed to Missouri in June, but announced on Twitter last night that he has decided to open up his recruitment.

Beard is currently ranked as the No. 78 player in the 2014 class according to 247sports Composite Rankings.  Beard has offers from several SEC schools includding Arkansas, LSU, and Tennessee. He also has an offer from Florida State and Georgetown.

According to Scout.com, Beard is a quick guard that will fit best in a up-tempo system.  He’s a player that can really score and handle the ball.  Frank Haith would love to have Beard in a Tiger uniform to help replace Phil Pressey in 2014. Beard was the first and only commitment for Missouri’s 2014 class.
