How large will Missouri’s 2018 football recruiting class be?

Missouri is sitting at 10 pledges for the 2018 recruiting cycle, having picked up five from this past weekend’s Night at the Zou recruiting event.

By my math, that means the Tigers have committed to 79 scholarships after this year, meaning they would technically only have room for six more commitments. Obviously that number is fluid given decommitments, transfers, and the general attrition that occurs at all schools.

In his first two years, Barry Odom signed 22 and 26 recruits, respectively. Several have become instant contributors — Damarea Crockett, Cale Garrett, and Christian Holmes, to name three — while others had to make detours for various reasons.
