Can Dennis Gates and C.Y. Young elevate Missouri recruiting?

Recruiting matters.

I know we’re breaking serious ground here. But last summer I dove into an attempt to explain why Mizzou Basketball is more complicated,

Basically Cuonzo Martin didn’t get it done, specifically in the last season. One of the main reasons the team struggled last year was a lack of recruiting. Martin and his assistants didn’t pull in the players.

We’ve spent a good amount of time talking about the financials, so when Dennis Gates was hired, the first question out of many people’s mouths was going to be “What’s the assistant pool?”

Dave Matter initially reported it was $915,000.
