Missouri hosted unoffered regional recruits Saturday against Auburn. Those players recapped their unofficial visits to Memorial Stadium and detailed other trips on their respective schedules.

Brennan Czeschin spoke with offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Kirby Moore on the sidelines pregame. The Class of 2026 quarterback from O'Fallon (Mo.) St. Dominic got the opportunity to talk with Moore about how Missouri planned to attack Auburn.

"It was a surreal feeling being able to visit my in-state school," Czeschin said. "It has always been my dream school and was awesome to visit. Every time you go on something like this, you learn a lot about the recruiting process. This was just a reminder of the importance of building relationships with coaching staffs."

Czeschin -- who holds an offer from Miami (OH) -- will visit Kansas on Nov. 23.

Kyren Evans -- who is teammates with Class of 2027 wide receiver Chance McPike -- said he was impressed by the Tigers' comeback victory. The St. Louis (Mo.) Lutheran North wideout spoke with coaches, but he didn't learn too much about the recruiting process. He will be returning to Missouri for another unofficial visit Nov. 9.

Class of 2027 recruit Isaac Hudson enjoyed watching Brady Cook return from injury to defeat Auburn on Saturday. The St. Louis (Mo.) Cardinal Ritter wideout spoke with wide receivers coach Jacob Peeler about the college experience and loved the hospitality to him and his family. Hudson is planning to visit Illinois and Purdue next this season.

Kyler Kuhn enjoyed the atmosphere at Memorial Stadium and conversations with offensive line coach Brandon Jones and assistant director of recruiting and player relations Evan Boehm, who discussed the program and even wrestling with the two-sport athlete.

"It was great to get my first in-state visit because it's close to home, and I got to see my brother who is a student at Mizzou," Kuhn said.

Kuhn has scheduled unofficial visits with Kansas State for Saturday, Nebraska for Nov. 2 and Kansas for Nov. 9.

Reece Shanklin spoke with running backs coach Curtis Luper and cornerbacks coach Al Pogue, as the two staffers made their rounds with the St. Louis area recruits in attendance. It marked the East St. Louis (Ill.) High quarterback's first interactions with Missouri coaches. Depending on how long the Flyers last in postseason play, Shanklin doesn't expect to take another visit this fall.
