Jabari Brady has always been regarded as a top wide receiver in his class.
Although shifting up and down in the Rivals250 the past two years, Brady has held constants in his recruitment, including interest in Missouri. The Tigers landed in Brady's Top 10 on Nov. 26, but that list doesn't tell his true top schools over three months later.
Nebraska and Oklahoma entered the mix, but Missouri currently holds the first official visit on his calendar. Brady, a Class of 2026 wideout, will visit Columbia for the first time June 6-8.
"I just want to see family," the Coconut Creek (Fla.) Monarch wideout said. "It's loyalty up there, for real. Loyalty is big on me. I want to make sure that they treat me right, and if they treat me right, I'll always treat them right and treat my family right. My mom, she's a big factor in my life right now. So really just that and developing me to be a better person on the field and off the field."
Brady has known wide receivers coach Jacob Peeler since he received his Missouri offer in January 2024. The Tigers remained an interest ever since, with Peeler being a regular in recruiting trips to Florida.
"I like how Coach Peeler puts his receivers in the best position that he can," Brady said. "He doesn't put one receiver in one spot. He makes sure the receiver is all on the field and can be outside or the slot."
At 6-foot-3, 203 pounds, Brady has impressed Peeler with traits to fit that mold in the Tigers' offense. The No. 14 recruit in Florida has flashed speed, strength in contested catches and ability to create separation off his releases and on the top of his routes.
"I don't really want to go to a school where they just run the ball, run the ball, run the ball," Brady said. "Mizzou runs the ball and pass the ball a lot, so that's one good thing."
Missouri signed two Florida high school wide receivers in the past two recruiting cycles, albeit both wideouts -- James Madison II and Donovan Olugbode -- transferred to their respective schools after growing up in the Midwest.
The Tigers were caught off guard, though, by the flipped commitment of Florida pass-catcher Jayvan Boggs in the 2025 class, but that hasn't discouraged Peeler from continuing to recruit wide receivers from the state.
"Florida receivers are always going to have that dog in them," Brady said. "Down here, it's a dog-eat-dog world, so you got to get what's yours and get what's earned. I feel like we have that edge to us, and we always go and try to get the position that we always wanted in our life."
At the Navy All-American Bowl in January, Brady learned to carry that Florida confidence into every practice, competing for snaps no matter the circumstances.
Brady has also scheduled an official visit to Nebraska for June 20-22. Florida, Ohio State and Oklahoma stand in position for official visits in the coming months, too.
