if it's not just a guessing game as to how good someone is.

Is there much of a difference between the 102nd ranked player and the 250th ranked player in basketball?

I think Trent Pierce may be the key Gates recruit - FIJItiger MU

The problem with this team has been the over reliance on - longtimereader MU - 2/9 17:41:21

I wonder once you get past about the top 20 or 30 recruit - playhard KC - 2/9 11:46:26

I would say many top 10 players end up being pretty good but - Tiger_1995 MU - 2/9 12:50:24

75 Evan Miya has some pretty good info - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 12:08:16

That looks like an eye chart wu!!!(nm) - playhard KC - 2/9 14:24:38

And when you get past that top 30 or so recruits - KC rules MU - 2/9 12:07:02

I've often thought the same thing. Might go a little deeper - GeorgiaTiger76 MU - 2/9 11:50:25

Exactly why you see these complete roster overhauls - Genco98 MU - 2/10 06:42:41

I'll keep saying it until i'm blue in the face, moving - playhard KC - 2/9 14:27:57

What if it’s a coach that can keep those 4 star freshmen - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 14:44:41

I'm not suggesting you abandon HS recruiting all together - playhard KC - 2/9 14:51:45

I still think you want your core to come from multi year - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 14:56:40

Isn't that what Iowa St has done the last two years?(nm) - playhard KC - 2/9 15:13:59

Iowa State has 6 guys playing at least 20 mpg - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 15:27:53

So you're saying he built a team through the portal? - playhard KC - 2/9 15:52:02

No I am saying they supplemented a good returning core - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 16:10:54

While he may have some potential, he was not even - go tigers MU

- 2/9 11:15:36

Using that logic J T Tiller was better then Marcus Denmon - longtimereader MU - 2/9 17:27:46

That AZ Compass team was loaded. Not your average - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 11:29:06

Remember when he was supposed to be our best player?(nm) - TheWildcat MU

- 2/9 11:03:46

When was that? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 11:09:23

During the summer (nm) - Uncle John MU

- 2/9 11:10:50

I never saw anything that came from the Mizzou team - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 11:13:49

Pretty sure that did happen. (nm) - TheWildcat MU

- 2/9 13:45:49

Do you have a link? - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 14:01:12

I agree that was never said - longtimereader MU - 2/9 17:35:25

Almost any top 100 recruit could become very important to - Tiger_1995 MU - 2/9 10:13:00

All our players need to remember to eat - FIJItiger MU

- 2/9 10:17:37

They need to combine eating a lot and lifting weights so - Tiger_1995 MU - 2/9 12:35:23

I don't feel like they've had a good strength and - playhard KC - 2/9 14:29:25

We've sure had some skinny, scrawny players since then(nm) - Tiger_1995 MU - 2/9 14:37:06

For sure. Guys like - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 14:52:32

If you can't tell the difference from our guys and the team - Tiger_1995 MU - 2/10 01:00:13

The difference is easy to see. But Buzz has been there 5 - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/10 08:48:29

Anderson has been gone 13 years and you named 24 guys - playhard KC - 2/9 15:10:04

You could name a bunch of other players. - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 15:20:11

Do you think Nick Honor and Noah Carter hit the gym - playhard KC - 2/9 15:25:01

All are stout players. That don’t get pushed around. - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 15:29:45

Stout is one way to describe Nick Honor's phsique - playhard KC - 2/9 15:52:51

So you don’t like the players that are “skinny” - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 16:12:34

I’d prefer them to all look like DB’s in football - playhard KC - 2/9 17:49:55

That would be a massive developmental jump - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 10:02:18

2009-10 our three leading scorers were all sophomores - FIJItiger MU

- 2/9 10:19:42

Hopefully we see similar development then (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 11:10:07

We are bringing in the guy that started as a Jr in front - Uncle John MU

- 2/9 09:56:57

They are 2 different players that bring different things - longtimereader MU - 2/9 17:25:10

RE: I think Trent Pierce may be the key Gates recruit - BruceInLA MU - 2/9 09:53:56

He's been sick with a Virus. Wutang posted yesterday - Uncle John MU

- 2/9 09:59:01

He's being run off to open up a spot for a transfer.(nm) - alstl MU - 2/9 09:57:11

Hopefully not, he should be getting decent minutes(nm) - TigerFan92 STL - 2/9 10:02:16

He has to get healthy to play. - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 10:05:21

If this team is fully healty all year they might have a - playhard KC - 2/9 11:34:37

At partial health they had road wins - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 11:42:21

The team presently would lose those same games if played now - longtimereader MU - 2/9 17:20:32

I agree with that. - wu-tangtiger MU - 2/9 17:34:45
