Hiring recruiters is all about existing relationships.
I can see a scenario where Anderson would be able to hire guys that would do well in Kansas City and St. Louis (Peeler and Corey Tate).
But they'd still have the Norm bias in St. Louis to overcome (Anderson is so closely linked to him, especially in coaching circles). Not sure if Tate makes that up with the St. Louis Eagles or not.
And what about nationally? It's unlikely Missouri can entirely support a high D1 program (top 30-40) with entirely Missouri players. What national guys/high level recruiters would Kim Anderson be connected to and able to bring in?
