Barrett is coming off of a breakout sophomore season with the Tigers after taking over Anthony Robinson for the starting point guard role in January. In the middle of conference play, Barrett had a five straight game stretch of scoring in double figures. In a 73-69 win over Tennessee on February 24th — Barrett had a career-high 28 points.

With the departure of Barrett, Trent Pierce is set to be the only Missouri starter to return next season. Mizzou is bringing in one of the top recruiting classes in the country highlighted by Jason Crowe Jr., Toni Bryant, and Aidan Chronister, but point guard will now all of a sudden become a glaring position of need in the transfer portal this offseason.
