2025 Top-20 PG Aaron Rowe commits to Missouri Tigers

Aaron Rowe, one of the top point guards in the 2025 class, is officially off the board and he’s decided to stay home and be a Mizzou Tiger. He announced the decision live on the On3 Recruits YouTube Channel.

The 6-foot-1 junior out of Father Tolton (MO) chose to play for Dennis Gates and company over Tennessee and Kansas State.

Rowe, the No. 4 point guard and the No. 18 overall player in the 2025 On3 Industry Rankings, went in-depth on his decision to choose the Tigers.

“I chose Missouri because I just felt like it was the best fit for me and my family,” Rowe said to On3. “It’s a hometown college so it felt right.”

Rowe’s relationship with Mizzou’s coaching staff played a vital role in his decision.

“I have a great relationship with the coaching staff. They talk to me almost every week and tell me what I need to work on and what I do good on.”

He has a message for Tigers fans.

“I’m a hometown kid so I’m trying to represent Mizzou right and put on for my city. I’m going to play with a lot of heart and it’s going to be a lot of fun.”

Rowe becomes Missouri’s first commitment in their 2025 class. The Tigers’ 2024 class ranks 11th nationally and includes commitments from four-star SF Annor Boateng (No. 33), four-star SF Marcus Allen (No. 58), four-star C Peyton Marshall (No. 74), four-star C Trent Burns (No. 84), and three-star CG T.O. Barrett (No. 128). All rankings are according to the On3 Industry Rankings.

Scouting Report

“Aaron Rowe plays on the ball and with a lot of confidence. He has a great frame with good length. He needs to put on strength. Has great touch in the midrange and gets to his spots off the bounce with no issues. Likes the elbows. He needs to continue developing his reads as a primary initiator. Does not get turned with full-court pressure defense.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
