Only reason Mizzou's team ranking is so low across the board is because their class size is small compared to other SEC schools...5-10 more recruits and they'd be a lot higher.

Still way low according to Rivals even with what they got.

I'd agree with this more if their average star rating was higher. They're 10th in the SEC in that category and of the 12 SEC teams I listed the average class size is 22, so theirs isn't significantly smaller.

I figured you would be in here giving the SEC credit for the signing.

If MU had a few more recruits they would have a good shot at jumping Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, and Arkansas. If you go look at the rankings, Vandy is 29th, MSU 30th, Arkansas 31st, and MU 32nd. Vandy and MU are separated by 80 points, which is the equivalent to a few mid three stars.

I don't disagree. Mizzou should have better recruiting classes than Vandy and MSU.

You've got to consider the recruiting landscape, though. Mizzou spent a year or even more in some cases recruiting players to a Big XII school. Texas is our biggest state to recruit from, and we successfully used the pitch that the kids could play in Texas several times over their time at Mizzou.

When we left to the SEC, all the Texas kids who signed on to Mizzou because of their ability to play in Texas suddenly had no compelling reason to stay. There are plenty of kids who will want to play for Mizzou in the SEC. We'll just have to target those kids in the future.
