Recruiting it's important, and it has gone pretty well with Martin, much the same as any decent recruiter can do at a program that needs to be rebuilt.
The difference is the elite kids. There's just too much competition for them from elite programs to overcome until we can show we're not chumps.
I think we have a double whammy at Mizzou, because unfortunately the first recruiting class was made up of (mostly) kids that were never gonna stay here. The Porters, Kash, CJ Roberts (we couldn't let him out of his LOI unless he asked, and we made an arrangement with the family to preserve his eligibility while they found a better landing spot).
So really, this past season's class (Watson, Pinson, Pickett, Santos, Mark Smith, Dru Smith) is year one of the rebuild.
