He should take a lesson from The Big Cheddar. Minus 1 recruit, he has locked up all of Arky's top recruits.

Because maybe for UK 5-7 is a decent season. At Mizzou that blows. Between that and head coaching uncertainty, there is uncertainty with recruits too. Until 1 or both of those things change, we'll continue to have problems.

And I'll add that the ones that haven't committed are NOT leaning towards Mizzou.

No, I would hate that. The kid goes to my alma mater. I absolutely want to see him succeed in life, whether on the football field or elsewhere.

ETA - And you're a dick for suggesting otherwise.

It wouldn't surprise me, if he's got a degenerative condition in his hip, that 5 star future NFL first round draft pick thing isn't such a sure thing anymore.

I posted a month ago or so that It looked like of the 3 OT from StL Bauer's body was the least ready for the SEC.

I can't remember if it was last basketball season or the one before, but I had seen them at a basketball game. He has a younger brother that was supposed to be a stud as well but was casted up. I've been trying to rack my brain to remember what that was all about ever since I heard about Andy's hip because there is something nagging at the back of my brain that says his brother also had some congenital problem and he was no longer playing football. I could be way wrong and making the shite up in my head and it could have been the kid was in a car accident and broke a leg. I just remember thinking how much it sucked for the kid to not be able to play.

Guilty as charged. The comment was douchy. I probably read the OP in the wrong vein. My apologies.

In addition to those listed in the OP, here are some other top Missouri recruits per 247:

4* OT Brian Wallace - MU not in his top 5.
4* LB Jimmie Swain - TCU commit
3* CB Raymond Wingo - Likely Arky commit
3* LB Elijah Lee - KSU commit
3* RB Dalvin Warmack - KSU commit
3* DT Armon Watts - Arky commit
3* DE Jonathan Bonner - ND commit
3* DE/TE Freedom Akinmoladun - Neb commit
3* S Kaleb Prewett - KSU commit(don't think MU offered)
3* LB Aaron Mends - Iowa commit (don't think MU offered)

And that won't change until Pinkel is gone IMO or makes some big changes on his staff.

You mean the #1 recruit in the whole nation that Pinkel has now relegated to blocking punts. But hey, with his size and speed, he'll be really good at it.

I think you're right Belle, but it's not strictly because he can't recruit in-state. He'd done a good job in years past. I think it's because MU had a crap season and created uncertainty about his job and I don't know if Pinkel is the one to turn it around in the SEC.
