Incredibly weak. That's why I don't get the crying when recruits get processed. They do the same thing.

No matter the position or the depth at the position. Losing talent is never a good thing.

We have seen how a recruiting cycle that misses on key prospects translates to poor on the field performance, particularly when the 3/4 star prospects that are attainable for our program decide to go else where or decommit.

I know our staff is working their butts off, but the reality is we are not better off when a Jeff Thomas or Jafar decided to go elsewhere. In our league we need those guys, no matter how you feel about the prospects recruiting approach, we need that talent at Mizzou.

It sucks for the program if he doesn't end up in Columbia .

I think he would be great in the slot in this offense. He could put on another 10-15 lbs and be able to go toe to toe with any safety or slot corner the opposing defense put on him. Being able to block that position consistently gives the RBs another 5 yds of space on the edge work to work back inside or bounce out.

I hope they stay in his ear.

"A recruit who flips is like a fiancé who changed their mind. They were never truley committed, so you are better off without them" - Derek Jones DB coach at Duke. Interesting words from a college coach.

Losing talent is tough but they haven't stopped looking for more guys. They can find other guys just as good

He isn't the only coach to have used similar words.

Les Miles got heated on during a statement when Gunner Kiel flipped last minute to ND.

I agree with this statement in terms of ball skills and ability after the catch. Armstrong's value when the ball isn't in his hands tips the scale IMO.

I'm sure we have other kids we like. Coaches have a finite amount of time and spent a ton of it on Armstrong recently.

I think this is something easier said than done. If we have identified equal or greater talent then why are they not a part of the class already?

Armstrong lied through his teeth to everyone around the Mizzou program. Let himself be influenced by beaker trash in his Gunhard his coach and former ku staff member. Dumb.

The Adams kid from Alabama didn't make it for his trip this weekend either unfortunately. Let's hope we hold onto Gardiner, if he flips to OSU this pretty much kills our WR class.

Goodness. What a disaster.

I hope this forces Odom to shift gears. Recruit over, under, around and behind all of your recruits. Always have legitimate backup plans. None of this means anything until they are signed.

Besides getting these juco DLmen and holding onto that linebacker from TN and a handful of these other guys, this class isn't that important.

Right now we aren't the type of program that can stack a lot of talent in the depth chart. If you're high profile you need to play now or very soon at Mizzou.

We have some spots locked down for a little while.

I hope they don't fill out this class with a bunch of 3rd choices.

Have a good season. Load up big next year. I hope they have the balls to do it.

Maybe this is their backup plan?

This kid was in on this last visit and he has great hands, nice blocker and he's very elusive.

Looks like the complete opposite of J'Mon Moore.

Also looks like he could be Kim Anderson's son.
