Mizzou signs Georgia transfer through the portal
The former Bulldog is now a Tiger for Missouri.
Missouri has added another player from the Southeastern Conference via the transfer portal. Former Georgia Bulldog Darris Smith committed to the Tigers on Instagram on Wednesday, joining Oklahoma’s Cayden Green, Georgia Southern’s Marcus Carroll, and Clemson’s Toriano Pride in Mizzou’s transfer portal class.
Smith has played in 16 games for the Bulldogs over the last two seasons. He has six total tackles and one pass deflection. According to On3sports, he was the 108th overall player and the seventh highest-rated linebacker in the transfer portal.

Smith, who stands 6-foot-5 and weighs 240 pounds, is an intriguing player. He was a four-star recruit out of Appling County High School. Over Akron, Auburn, Louisville, Miami, Michigan State, North Carolina, South Carolina, Syracuse, Tennessee, and Wisconsin, he chose the Bulldogs. With Chad Bailey and maybe Ty’Ron Hopper going, he’ll be a significant asset to Blake Baker’s defense.
