Pourover: Dennis Gates is changing the dynamics of Mizzou Basketball Recruiting

A year ago I did an exploration of what sort of talent made its way to SEC schools over the years, including the soon-to-be members Oklahoma and Texas. Looking at the 247sports.com Composite ranking is a useful tool when assessing the overall talent levels at each program.

The obvious caveat here should be that not every 5-star recruit is the same. Some are Kevin Durant, some are Skal Labissierre. Some 4-star recruits are Donovan Mitchell and some are Jason Horton. And of course some 3-star recruits turn into Marcus Denmon, while others end up being Dominique Bull.
