An example: Boehm, Lucas, Gaines, Wilson, Shane Ray, Lucas Vincent are all from the KC area. That area has more local schools cultivating it (Nebraska, KU, K-State), so it makes sense we get fewer players from there. However, there are three OL in St. Louis with Alabama offers, and it's likely that Missouri won't get a single one of them. Bauer, the highest rated, is going to Miss, and Roderick Johnson and the other kid from CBC (whose name escapes me) likely will go to another SEC school.

IMO, they shouldn't be losing kids that highly rated from instate to other conference schools.
Thats indefensible. |

1) The Fifth Down 2) The Flea Kicker 3) The Tyus Edney layup 4) The Orange Bowl snub (taking KS instead) 5) Loss to Norfolk State in the NCAA So I hope you understand my reluctance to have hope that the football gods will smile down on us. |

Losing a kid to Alabama is hardly indefensible. We can't lose as many as we have been, though.

I am saying that I don't really care whether we get the 3* MO recruits over the 3* FL or GA recruits. In fact, I'd probably prefer the 3* FL or GA recruits. |

I don't believe that is true of the Florida and Georgia kids. We could win the East for the next 5 years and Florida will simply start recruiting along the 'Bring the home front back to power' angle. We're not going to snipe key recruits from established football states with major universities. We can, however, keep them in state.

FSU isn't SEC.

I am more down on the MO prep talent than others in this thread. We do poorly in St. Louis, yet I can't remember too many St. Louis "misses" (other than Montee Ball) that went on to do much of anything in college. If anything, I think we need to focus more attention on Illinois. That state produces 5-8 4* kids a year. We should pick off a few of those kids every year. |

Aldon was not a recruit on the level of Sheldon or Gabbert. It wasn't even particularly close.

I might be remembering selectively, but it seems like the KC kids pan out much more often than the St. Loius kids do.

He was as big or bigger of a prospect than Lucas Vincent, whom you included.

We need more classes like 2010.
