You missed the point, again.
I know we can do better. I’ve seen it, and guess what...it sure as frick was not preceded by “stars”
If this team goes out and wins 10+ games (which it can), why would anyone give two shits how many “stars” our players had? It just makes no sense whatsoever. For some reason there is a contingent of fans that would legitimately prefer to finish in the top 10 in recruiting than in the final poll. It’s asinine.
Let me let you in on a little secret also, we have an infinitely better chance of finishing top 10 on the field. Shoot for that. Judge by tangible results, not mostly arbitrary bullshite.

My perspective is this: We are not Alabama. Only after decades of consistent top 10 finishes and multiple NCs could we be an Alabama. So the fact is, until that happens we will need to constantly try to get better because those man-childs ready to start as freshmen will not be coming to Mizzou. Bama can pick and choose, we cannot.
One or two good seasons doesn't make you a Bama. I think kU made that mistake of trying to compete recruiting with the big dogs after their one good season. Time, effort and results play in, and those you could have gotten while chasing those 5-stars.
It doesn't matter if you finish 2nd or last in recruiting someone, it's still a miss and wasted effort. So its very important to have spot-on evaluations that are better than the prognosticators that assign the Stars, and your time and effort is well spent.
We, unlike Bama, need to coach these kids up. Bama can just throw kids in the water and if they drown, and so what if they do, there's another one right behind them.

Nobody wants to see Mizzou sign a bunch of 4*s and end up playing like the Vols. I just want to see them take that next step and find a way to recruit better players and stop using the moniker "we do what we do"(under-the darn-radar-players) It's time for the fan base to demand they up their recruiting talent. It's time to at least be a year in and year out winning program and once in a while beat a true on-their-game blue blood.
It's about winning consistently. Look at the records for the Dan Devine coached Mizzou Tigers and how he only had 1 losing season in his Mizzou coaching career. He was Mizzou's best coach ever and the most consistent. We will never recruit like the Bamas and Ohio States, but we could recruit better.
