Missouri missed out on three-star linebacker JJ Bush Wednesday, but could land a different talented linebacker in the coming week.

Four-star linebacker Braxton Lindsey announced he'll be revealing his commitment on July 7. He'll be choosing between the Missouri, Oklahoma, Miami and Arkansas.

The 6-foot-2, 225-pound Arkansas native primarily lined up as an edge rusher in his junior season, using his quickness to chase after the quarterback or track down rushers. Last season, he recorded nine sacks, five tackles for loss, two forced fumbles and two pass breakups.
