The dynamic recruiting duo of Kermit Anderson and Norm Stewart struck out on Lue and his cousin Cookie Belcher.
Lue because they thought he was too small. Cookie because Kim - his lead recruiter - somehow didn’t hammer the correct name home to Norm.
Stewart spent the entire in-home visit calling him “Corky.” He committed to Nebraska shortly thereafter.

Former Illinois guard Mark Smith committed over the weekend. He’ll sit out this season and join Torrance Watson and hopefully Ramey as a member of the sophomore class for 2019-20.
He’s right with 2019 Uber-recruit EJ Liddell, too. Think this helps with him. [Reply]

What's your opinions on him? Will a change of scenery help? What does this mean for Ramey? [Reply]

Don’t think it means anything bad re: Ramey. They apparently are cool with playing together. It helps with EJ Liddell.
2019 could be a fun year. I love that Mizzou is relevant again. It's fun to think what Kermit could have done if he was given a real chance with more time. [Reply]

Your definition of fun and mine are not the same. [Reply]
