RE: STARS MATTER

Great post and spot on correct. MU is never going to get the quantity of 4 and 5 star players Alabama gets, but you've got to be good enough at recruiting some 4/5 star players to mix in with the 3's or you're going to be toast in the SEC. Posters that keep saying that a coaching staff can "coach-up" 3 star players to compete with teams like Alabama are just delusional. 3 star teams like MU can occationally upset a top team (although this MU team can't seem to do it) but 99% of the time the speed difference is why the top recruiting teams are also the top winning teams. If Barry can't step up his recruiting MU needs to find a coach who can attract some 4/5 star players or MU will be a SEC bottom feeder for a long time.
