Still seems weird that a guy with Martin's level of impact in St Louis now wasn't getting more guys like Scheer, at his level, out of St. Louis, than he did.
But cest la vie

Not much in the state of Missouri recruiting wise those years. Big reason the Valley took a nose dive.
Had some big time near gets that would have changed the program big time. The class he took to Tennessee - 3 of those were going to be Bears. Josh Richardson, Wes Washburn, and Derrick Chevious's son. That would have been a Wichita State type run class. Had a damn good recruiter in Kansas City with former Jayhawk Steve Woodberry. He will probably be a favorite for our next head coach, he followed Danny Manning to Tulsa and Wake. Had Alec Burks as a Bear until Colorado came calling.
They were on a lot of talented players just that at the MVC level it's hard to keep them locked down. No surprise what he is doing at Missouri recruiting wise. Perfect fit for him.
