2017 high school schedules for all Missouri Football commits

After a July rush, Missouri’s 2018 recruiting class sits at 14 commits. The Tigers don’t anticipate any new pledges in the week before the season starts so let’s take a look at the current group’s high school season schedules.

The idea here is to update with highlights and notable news week by week.
