with bringing those players to MU, and you know it.

The Porters came to MU because of (1) a 7-figure contract for pops, and (2) a strong desire to reunite with their family in CoMo. Just about anyone other than Kim Anderson would have been able to "recruit" them here.

Harris flat out said he came because of MPJ, not Cuonzo (which is why he ended up transferring). And it's highly likely that Tilmon came along because of the MPJ hype as well.

Clearly, that class was an outlier that skews the recruiting stats. It came together under extraordinary circumstances. Every other class has been mediocre or disappointing.

          Doubt he gets a top 20 recruiting class - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 17:49:28
               And by the way, "top 20 class" isn't that high of a bar... - zounami MU - 7/24 18:11:09
                    You have to start somewhere.(nm) - raskolnikov MU - 7/25 09:55:56
                         It isn't 2017 anymore. (nm) - zounami MU - 7/25 14:05:21
                    Except there are a lot of viable non power conference - KC rules MU - 7/24 21:02:04
                         There are more garbage P5 programs than elite mid-majors. - zounami MU - 7/24 21:25:36
                    In basketball team recruiting ranking don’t really matter. - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 18:18:49
                         Okay, then CM better land some legit, top 75 prospects. (nm) - zounami MU - 7/24 18:24:21
                              Yea his scout has to be right - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 18:32:33
                                   Honestly though, it seems like CM doesn't care, like he - zounami MU - 7/24 18:41:01
                                        What makes you think he isn’t competitive - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 18:42:37
                                             One reason is that he seems lazy on the recruiting trail... - zounami MU - 7/24 18:51:41
                                                  He hasn't won enough for the recruits that will change this - cruiser MU - 7/24 18:59:39
                                                       that's the point of my original reply... he needs to win big - zounami MU - 7/24 19:11:43
                                                            Winning big this year likely means the recruiting boost - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 19:44:38
                                                  His average recruit at Mizzou has been better - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 18:55:29

                                                            How is that different than Duke giving Zion 400k? - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 19:43:37
                                                                 The $400k wasn't from Duke or meant to steer him to Duke... - zounami MU - 7/24 21:23:04
                                                                      Do you really think it’s rare? - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 21:31:32
                                                                           Yes, it happens with maybe 5 of the top 100 recruits... - zounami MU - 7/24 21:53:33
                                                                                It’s way more than 5 of the top 100 recruits - wu-tangtiger MU - 7/24 22:28:48
                                                                                     No. How many high school recruits are getting $500k - zounami MU - 7/24 22:38:26
