Based upon that would you say recruits were more excited - alstl MU - 8/26 11:12:11

Probably SEC from a recruiting perspective (nm) - FIJItiger MU

- 8/26 11:37:44

Not sure what your point is here. - Evenflow MU - 8/26 11:20:57

I like Big 12 basketball better than SEC, but to allege - Evenflow MU - 8/26 11:32:36

To win you need players - to get players you need to recruit - alstl MU - 8/26 11:38:35

Fans aren't disinterested in the SEC nearly as much as - Evenflow MU - 8/26 11:41:49

Also, having a staff full of proven recruiters helps a - Evenflow MU - 8/26 11:26:38

Who was that staff and where are they now?(nm) - Uncle John MU

- 8/26 11:29:16

I'm sure there are some pretty heavy duty recruiters - Evenflow MU - 8/26 11:31:16
