[QUOTE="ChuckM, post: 1421060, member: 654333"] Part of it is Cuonzo and his staffs "charm". All you have to do is read what recruits have to say about how he and the staff recruited them. A lot of them say they talk about things other than basketball most of the time. To do that you have to have a personality outside of a gym. Common sense alone says Cuonzo will get some recruits from the St Louis area because not only is he from there but he is friends with a lot of these kids dads since High School. He's also been building relationships by doing a lot of basketball camps, youth programs and charity events. etc. in the area. Some of Missouri's players have had their high school, AAU, or college coaches contact Martin and/or his assistants about playing for them. [/QUOTE]
