COLUMBIA, Mo. — As much as coach Barry Odom’s staff targeted wide receivers in the first couple recruiting classes, the Tigers either struck out or struggled to reel in any keepers. Players such as Dimetrios Mason, Harry Ballard, O’Shae Clark and DaRon Davis inspired hope when they chose Mizzou but each one either washed out of the program or never arrived.
The Tigers’ 2018 receiver class hardly was the nation's most celebrated — Clemson, Florida, Louisiana State, Southern California and Texas all signed multiple top-20 ranked wideouts — but the trio of Jalen Knox, Kam Scott and Dominic Gicinto stood out in its own ways.
