Breaking down Barry Odom’s recruiting geography

The 2019 football recruiting cycle is finished, and once again, the Tigers appear to be toward the bottom of the SEC’s class rankings.

However, when discussing football recruiting, I have to admit that I’m a bit tired of the, “Missouri can’t recruit with the big boys,” narrative.

Don’t take that as a peddling of the, “stars don’t matter,” counterpoint. Stars do matter, as pointed out by David earlier this week. However, it’s prudent to realize that Missouri will never compete in the top half of the SEC recruiting rankings, at least not on a consistent basis.
