I know the staff has been frustrated on the return on investment for local recruits compared to resources invested. They’ve at least unconsciously shifted some focus as a result, I think.
In KC, part of the issue is that Andy Hill is near the end of the road and just doesn’t go as hard as he used to.
Re: Mertz, Heupel was the main roadblock there. He didn’t want Mertz at all, which delayed Mizzou until it was too late.
In-state recruiting success usually goes hand-in-hand with success and longevity for Mizzou. Odom getting this extension and getting to 9+ wins next year (possible with schedule) would be a boon, I think.
I’m getting a little bit of a 2007 vibe from the current team. Could see 2019 being that type of step forward for Odom.
