No matter how you slice it, it boils down to coaching. I have been looking back at Missouri's recruiting classes:
2013 #41 ranked class
2012 #31
2011 #48
2010 #20
Most of their classes are composed of 3 star players with maybe 1 or 2 four stars mixed in. Meanwhile Georgia has top 10 classes most seasons. The difference: Missouri's coaches seem to be doing more with less. We've seen this before with Boise St. and WVU. Missouri's players stick with the team and are better developed while we lose many of our recruits to various forms of attrition not the least of which is top players jumping to the NFL leaving us with insufficient depth. It seems that at times there might be an advantage in recruiting players that are not top pro prospects because they stay with your team and play at a mature level as Juniors and Seniors.
