I hate to say it, but Kansas is his dream school who hadn't offered the last time I looked. He likes Mizzou, also.

Hargrove is playing with BBE on the EYBL circuit this summer. Liddell, Okoro and McKinney all big Mizzou targets will be playing with him. If Cuonzo can get McKinney or Liddell early it could go a long way toward getting the others.

His dad told Martin that Mizzou has become an option for his son. Plus, Watson and Pinson have been tweeting and talking to Ramey about needing him to come to Mizzou and help take them to the next level.

We are starting so see some of the top targets for 2020 emerge. A couple were at the Arkansas game.

So assuming we get Ramey (huge assumption, I know), who rounds out the class?

Grad transfer? Juco?

I know guards were the immediate need, but don't we need bigs to replace Porter and Tilmon after next year?

Probably. Is Gordon sticking with SLU? Who else is a legit target for bigs?

I’d guess we have at least three years with Tilmon.

Mizzou is recruiting Okoro and Liddell hard.
Mizzou was pushing hard for Wilson, but he’s not going to qualify last I heard.
Robinson-Earl is a target, but I didn’t think it’s very realistic.

What have y'all heard on Okoro? I know Auburn really feels good about our chances. We already have his teammate and friend from McHeachern HS, 4* 6'9" Babatunde Akingbola committed and he's looking to reclassify from 2019 to 2018. That could be big for Auburn. Give him a reason to come hang out a lot. He could also play 2 or 3 for Auburn and Bryce Brown will graduate after next season and Mustapha Heron could go pro after next year, so that gives us a good playing time angle too.

You have the wrong Okoro. This ones from Illinois and plays AAU ball with other high priority targets Liddell, McKinney and Hargrove.

Ah, my bad who would have thought there was more than one basketball recruit a year named Okoro.

And what are the odds that Isaac Okoro and Francis Okoro are ranked back-to-back at #33 and #34 in the 247composite rankings. That's crazy.

But I hope we both land our Okoro's

Kind of crazy that pretty much everything we need and want is going to be on the same AAU team.

Those 4 would really be the perfect class for next year.

If you stick within the region Mosley, Hall and Robinson-Earl are also really good.
2 other instate recruits with hug potential but also major questions are Leech (leg injury) and Wilson (grades)

Mizzou needs to get Isiaih Mosley LINK in 2019, because so far in my vision he seems like the best and most athletic player in the state.

Why haven't Mizzou offered these 2 2018 recruits from the state?

I don’t know that Mosley is quite the athlete that the other wing targets in the class are, but he’s a much better shooter. The last time I checked his stats he was shooting over 45% from 3 this season.

Mizzou is 1 if the schools recruiting Leech the hardest, but nothing will happen with him until he gets healthy. If Leech does get healthy soon he will be in high demand. Otherwise he will have to take the Santos path.

In many classes Freeman would be the top wing in Missouri and be a big time target. This year there are too many wings that Mizzou has prioritized over him.

Seems like the Illini wants Liddell just as bad as Mizzou and they think that Mizzou might be their toughest competition. I wonder what happens when the blue bloods come calling.

Would anybody want this pg who's a member of Pitt’s 2018 class that's asked for his release after Kevin Stallings was fired?
