Missouri picked up its 14th commitment of the 2018 recruiting class, Rivals reported, as Khmari Thompson, said he would sign with the Tigers.

Thompson, a 3-star wide receiver from Lawrenceville, Ga., was so taken by Missouri that he traveled to Nashville last week, paying his own way, to watch the Tigers play Vanderbilt.

“I went up to Vanderbilt as a fan to watch Missouri play and I really liked seeing them up close,” Thompson told Rivals. “Drew Lock is a great quarterback and it was great to see him and the playmakers at receiver make plays.

“I got to see the team up close and it was great.”

The 6-foot-1, 195 pound wide receiver said he made the decision about two weeks ago, and discussed it with his parents, including the football program and academics.

“It just felt right for me to commit to Missouri. It is hard to say exactly right, but it was the feeling.”

“Coach Odom was astounded when I told him. Everyone was excited and it was great.”

Thompson also had offers from Kansas State, Old Dominion and Purdue, 247 Sports reported.
