Missouri State University West Plains announces new band program
WEST PLAINS, Mo. (KY3) – New courses are on the way for students in West Plains, Mo., after Missouri State University’s campus there announced it would be adding band.
Note by note, line by line, on their own, some students on the MSU-West Plains campus have continued their love of music, but this fall, they’ll be able to get credit for it.
“Now that it’s coming closer to home, I’m incredibly excited,” Sophomore Morgan Totty explained.
Totty stayed in West Plains for college.
“I went to high school here in West Plains and was part of the music program,” Totty said.
And the new instructor is no stranger to Totty. Rocky Long was the band director at West Plains High School for many years.
“Wonderful instruction. Learned so much from his class,” Totty stated.
Long says the new program will start small, and grow every year.
“We’re going to start with a limited catalog offering. We’re going to do a community/university band,” Long explained.
The school’s chancellor says this is a way students can stay close to home.
“Connect with our region. Connect with our students coming out of high school who wanted to continue to play,” Dr. Dennis Lancaster said.
Students can register for the program now. Totty hopes that the new course at the two-year university will be able to help him grow as a musician.
“As I move forward, hopefully transferring to a bigger college that allows me more availability for their programs as well,” Totty added.
The program will be housed in the former Putnam Student Center.

Reinforcing the offensive line has been a priority for the New Orleans Saints, who opened free agency by signing former Buffalo Bills left guard David Edwards to a four-year, $61 million contract. Even though the franchise has allocated plenty of resources to its offensive line, the free agency addition won’t stop them from seeking more offensive line talent.
The franchise is focused on protecting second-year quarterback Tyler Shough. If a starting offensive lineman is injured, someone must step up. Currently, Asim Richards is the only reliable backup for left tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. or right tackle Taliese Fuaga. On the interior, Dillon Radunz would make sense as a reliable replacement if someone were to go down between Edwards, center Erik McCoy, and right guard Cesar Ruiz.
Drafting a promising offensive lineman in 2026 makes sense, as the Saints hold five Day 3 picks. It’s unlikely general manager Mickey Loomis will spend early draft capital on a tackle, but a late pick is logical. Missouri’s Keagen Trost, projected for Day 3, could fit this need.
Trost, 25, recently worked out privately with the Saints, a source told Saints Wire. The Missouri standout earned a 92.4 Pro Football Focus grade in 13 games last season, ranking No. 1 among 632 eligible collegiate tackles. He also allowed just one sack in 834 total snaps.
Trost’s high grades project him in the fifth round, and he offers versatility, including potential to move inside. At his pro day, he measured 6-foot-4 and 313 pounds. The main issue is his 32 3/8-inch arms, which are shorter than teams prefer for starting tackles. He has extensive SEC experience and strong college production to back it up.
Picks No. 150 and 172 in the fifth round are logical choices for New Orleans to consider selecting Trost. Multiple teams have shown interest in him; he had five pre-draft visits and recently held virtual meetings with the Philadelphia Eagles, Dallas Cowboys, Cincinnati Bengals, and Atlanta Falcons, according to a source. While there are many highly regarded offensive linemen in this class, Trost’s versatility appears to set him apart from the others.
