Oh okay you're one of those guy.

One of the "it has been done this way at x, y, z" so it will be done here.

X, y and z have nothing to do with here

There are 4 top 100 players on the team right now. There's enough talents, if they put in the work, to win.

Guys like Clark, Wright, Gant, & Walton have to develop. If they do, then the team will win and recruiting will follow.

Yeah. But they have Gregg Marshall. We don't. So there's the difference between us and Wichita State.

ETA: they have Shamet, so at least one.

Mitchell Smith committed today. 6'10" big man. Needs to put on weight only 205 right now, but a real smooth athlete.

Wish the kid the best. Hope he has backups in place when/if Kim is fired

My take after only watching a brief bit of his highlights. Good shot blocker. Not very strong to the basket offensively. Might have something to do with I didn't know someone 6'10" could be under 200

He will have to get much stronger and add good weight of he wants to play in the SEC. Bossi said on his PM post that he didnt do much this summer in AAU and got pushed around a lot, limited offensively but can play decent defense and block some shots. Sounds like a mid-major 3*, which besides us is what his offers reflect. We need bigs and now we have one, but this isn't a very exciting add.

Said in an interview that Mizzou plans to use him similar to how Gant will be used.

Also had offers from Oklahoma State, Creighton, & Wichita State. That's a solid group of offers for Mizzou to get, especially after a 9 win season.

Top 5 JUCO forward Arlando Cokl named his top 5. Mizzou is in it, it here are: Memphis, OSU, Arkansas, & Nevada.

He plans on committing in the fall.

Supposedly we want someone more physical for the final spot. If that's true, not sure why we took Smith but OK. Sounds like we're planning to take 3-4 guys in this class again, so more turnover is coming.

Sounds like Jackson technically committed. He want to do a ceremony at his school, so will wait for that.

Also Cook wants to play on the wing in college, that's his best hope to make it professionally. Nevada took him as a wing not a post player.

Willie Jackson is a 6'6 wing from Ohio. He averaged 17 points & 14 rebounds as a junior last year.

Supposedly he is the reason the staff quit pursuing Sneed.

We don't need a Gant. We need a Rosburg with talent. We need a back to the basket type of player.

I haven't kept up. How many commits do we have for the next class and who are they? Is it just this Mitchell Smith guy?

ETA and Willie Jackson maybe?
