Mizzou football head coach Gary Pinkel fields questions on National Signing Day.

Mizzou football head coach Gary Pinkel fields questions on National Signing Day.

The Missouri Tigers finished with the signing of 20 football for the 2013 recruiting class. Mizzou did miss out on Ezekiel Elliott, the highly touted recruit from John Burroughs High School, who chose Ohio State yesterday afternoon just as Pinkel took the podium.

However, it was a good recruiting class for the state of Missouri, as the Tigers signed 11 from players from in-state and Pinkel mentioned an 85% success rate on those players Mizzou offered scholarships to.

The Tigers are ranked 48th in the nation by Rivals.com this year, and last in the SEC. Mizzou’s previous eight classes rated, according to Rivals: 29th in 2002, 28th in 2003, 29th in 2004, 39th in 2005, 47th in 2006, 33rd in 2007, 24th in 2008, 35th in 2009, 21st in 2010, 48th in 2011 and 48th in 2012.
