KANSAS CITY, Mo. — University of Missouri basketball fans received some good news Wednesday.

Small forward Aidan Shaw, from Blue Valley High School, announced on Twitter that he's recommitting to the Tigers.

Two weeks ago, after Cuonzo Martin and the Tigers pared ways, Shaw decommited from Mizzou and reopened his recruitment.

Shaw said he wanted to attend a university with "goals like winning championships and preparing players like me to be a pro," when making his decision.

Apparently, newly hired Mizzou men's basketball coach Dennis Gates made a positive impression in convincing Shaw to stick with the Tigers.

Gates vowed to bring championships to MU when he was introduced as the new head coach.
