I actually looked in to this a few years back when our fans were melting down over not landing all of our instate kids.
I looked at Arkansas, LSU and Nebraksa at the time because they were all the only Big 5 BCS schools in their state with fiercly, loyal fanbases.
I think it was over like an 8 year period but they all had similar numbers. They all landed about 78% of instate kids that they offered. I think that is a fair number to expect for schools like ours that are the only game in town. No one is going to land everyone in this day and age of every game being televised but if you can land about 7-8 out of 10 then you are doing pretty solid.

Mizzou's Numbers
2015: Not done yet, but of the top 10, offered 9. Got commits from 3.
2014: Of the top 10, offered 9. Got commits from 2.
2013: Of the top 10, offered 10. Got commits from 6. Interesting though that from this 6, 2 didn't qualify, 1 quit before the season started, and 1 is now boing to BYU.
2012: Of the top 10, offered 9. Got commits from 3.
Was using 247 when pulling the top 10's and offers. I'll try to see what the numbers for the whole class to see if it gets better for Mizzou because without getting the calculator out, it sounds like we're hitting on about 33%

Went back and looked at all offers instead of just out of the top 10. The numbers are slightly better but no where near the numbers you found for the other schools.
2014: Offered 19 Landed 8 (42%)
2013: Offered 18 Landed 11 (61%)
2012: Offered 11 Landed 5 (45%)
2015 so far: Offered 9 Landed 3 (33%)
Again, based on info from 247, which starts to get sketchy prior to 2012.
