Great Get..... absolutely great.

He single-handedly changes the prospects of the MIZZOU football program in the SEC these first few seasons.

Yep. Talent-wise, it's possible (but unlikely) that we've had a bigger signing in the past. But, the timing of this makes it huge. If he allows us to compete in the SEC from day 1, that will allow future recruiting classes to be better.

And the fact that he chose us over some of the biggest schools in the country.

I think it is even more huge that you were able to keep such a huge talent in-state. Our state produces some good prospects and it will be important to get a strong grip on in-state talent. That foundation will allow us to move into traditional powerhouse states ie Texas, Florida ect.

Yeah. If Mizzou is going to compete in the SEC, it absolutely cannot allow in state talent to go to other SEC schools. If we can't keep our own talent home, we've lost the recruiting battle before it even starts.
