Missouri since joining the SEC has never been a top recruiting school in the league, and I was wondering the reason....Even in 2013-2014, our best years in the SEC we were in the low 40’s and middle to high 30’s in the class rankings. We are 41 per 247 now, and 35 in Rivals’ rankings. Hopefully we can get 4/5 star DE Michael Thompson, and 4 star QB Cam Taylor, both projected to come here. But how much will that help that class if they do?

Turnaround-
Barry Odom and Missouri has had the best midseason turnaround in CFB this year by far, and I’m very proud of the team. Marcell Frazier, Sherrils, and the whole defense has stepped up enough, and our offense led by Drew Lock has been really good. Yes, they have been bad teams they have faced, but how they are doing it is pretty astounding. I have to give credit to BO, which seemed dead like the whole Missouri team the first half of the year. Hats off to him, he earned the 2 year extension, IMO.

Also, thanks for verifying my account! Can’t wait to share my opinions with everyone.

And sorry the last part doesn't involve recruiting, just putting my thoughts out there.

Jedd Fisch is looking like he is coming here which would be in awesome get. And he has a 5 star QB commited to UCLA, so maybe he would follow Jedd.

I don't know about that, as a QB, I don't know if I could pass up playing in a Chip Kelly offense

After years of terrible recruiting, Kentucky has stepped it up by pitching B1G area kids on playing in the SEC. I wonder if Missouri could benefit from a similar strategy. Illinois has some talent that really just goes all over.

Looks like the majority of your states half dozen or so 4 stars went elsewhere. If you don’t start there you are never gonna get there consistently.

true, but it was also bad timing. starting off 1-5 during the most crucial time was devastating. Every 2-3 years mizzou gets a 5 star local kid, the issue, we just need one more of them at least.
