WR Dorial Green-Beckham

So Missouri might have one 5 star commit . . . and one 4 star commit . . . out of 20 recruits? Stars aren't everything but that won't cut it in the SEC.

but that 1 5* is equal to 3-4 4* guys. Missouri will struggle in their first year - but I think they'll hold their own in the SEC. They likely won't be playing for championships there...but they never really were in the Big12 either. 4-4 in conference, 9-4 season with a win over a Big10 team in a bowl. They should get there every other year.

 
If Mizzou jumps in full tilt and over signs like the other SEC schools, I can see them doing quite well, especially in bowls. I think them going to the SEC helped snagging DGB as he stays close to home and still gets to play the big boys of the SEC. The kids I know that played against him and are going to MU for school are pumped for sure.

I know Dorial is the #1 prospect on Rivals but in no way would I trade him for McMullen, Thurston, Zaire, and Seisay. One 5* WR does not equal four 4* prospects

I would consider it. DGB is a special player, one of the few prospects that would have a legit shot of making a NFL roster out of HS. If I thought we were one offensive player away from a NC I would do it. We have too many holes as of now and quality depth is the best way to fix it. I like the recruits and are glad to have them playing for the Big Red, but passing on a opportunity to get a player of Green-Beckham's quality is so hard to pass on.

I wouldn't consider it. Four 4 stars (at positions of greater need for NU) >>> 1 spectacular HS receiver

 
So, the all-time leading passer (21,000+ yards and 208 TD passes) in HS history is joined by the all-time leader in receiving (6,356 rec. yards) in HS history on the same team, in the same freshman class. Wonder if that's ever happened before?

No. It hasn't.

I hope they have videos of their high school playing days. Both those guys will be lucky to put up 20% of those numbers over the next four years.

 
Ummm...I'm sorry. . .but why do we care about this dude on a day like today? He wasn't considering us. Did this become a Mizzu board?
