Missouri Football: Tigers land WR Jalen Knox out of Texas

The three star receiver from Arlington, Tex. committed to Missouri’s 2018 recruiting class. Rivals ranks Knox as the No. 15 all-purpose back and No. 88 receiver in Texas.

Knox is a speedster; according to Tod Palmer of the Kansas City Star, he ran the 100-yard dash in 10.66 seconds this spring, the 200 in 21.54 seconds, and a personal-best 52.00 in the 400.

The three-star commit turned down multiple offers from a number of respected programs, including Wisconsin, Iowa State, Oregon State, and Utah, among others.

Knox’s addition will come just in time for Mizzou, as the Tigers will be without receiver J’Mon Moore, and possibly Nate Brown.
