Is it really that big of a deal being the top school for KC kids?

it's huge.  absolutely huge.  the best thing this staff has done since their arrival is developing their relationship with mokan.

Have we recruited a mokan kid that was from the MO side?

Has there been a mokan kid from the MO side worth recruiting?

And we kind of recruited the russian dude that ended up at Ohio, I think.

alec burks, frank williams (no offer), willie reed (no offer), ivo baltic as micat said.  i think there were others with light recruitment.

How hard did we go after Burks?  Were we always lukewarm, or did we just get in too late?

He went to our elite camp and we brought him in for an official. We were not in too late (I'm pretty sure we were the first high major to actually offer)...he just picked CU.

That was the "we can get whoever the eff we want so we don't need to eff around with 3 stars" stage of KSU recruiting that led to the Buchi Awaji signing.

There were also scholarship number issues, if you believe that the staff really didn't know if Beasley and Walker would go pro.
