Cuonzo is recruiting similar to how Mike Anderson recruited. Which means that his staff’s evaluation has to be correct on the guys that they take early. Then they have to develop them.
Mizzou’s biggest problem isn’t the players that chose other schools it’s the players that Mizzou took early that didn’t pan out.
2018 Mizzou took Santos early, he’s out of college basketball now. Also took Watson and Pickett early. Both coming off of a sophomore season where they struggled and were inconsistent.
2019 Mizzou took Jackson and Mario early. Both have a ton of potential, they contributed nothing and left.
It sounds like Cuonzo recognizes that that is an issue. Maybe the 2021 class pays off.
