Missouri picked up its seventh commitment from the 2026 transfer portal in Auburn safety Kensley Louidor-Faustin on Wednesday afternoon. The news was confirmed by Louidor-Faustin on his Instagram story.
Louidor-Faustin is a big addition for the Tigers after losing both starting safeties with Jalen Catalon out of eligibility, and Marvin Burks Jr. in the transfer portal. Aside from the fact that Missouri is pretty desperate for help in its defensive back group, Louidor-Faustin is legit.
With two years of eligibility remaining, the Naples, Florida, product racked up 20 tackles, an interception, a sack and three tackles for loss this past season in 11 games. As a true freshman, he appeared in eight games. Jumping straight to the SEC and playing as a true freshman tells you what kind of talent Louidor-Faustin is.
With the addition of JaDon Blair — a Notre Dame transfer — last night from the transfer portal, the safety room is starting to shape out for Missouri.
Aside from Louidor-Faustin Blair, the secondary room still has players like Santana Banner and Trajen Greco, who both recently re-signed with the Tigers. They’ll also bring in Class of 2026 secondary commits Carter Stewart and Brody Jones.
The transfer class continues to grow as Drinkwitz and company have plenty of holes still left to be filled. Stay up to date in the Rock M+ forums here!
