If Mizzou can maintain their recruiting in the SEC, then there's no reason why things can't come together every once in a while for a conference championship.
My argument is that you will likely fail in the SEC, not because the teams are tough, but because you'll be one of the last SEC options, whereas you are currently the 3rd or 4th Big 12 option.
There is no way to scientifically prove that, so I guess we'll have to come back in 2021 and revisit what happened.

Your argument makes no sense and is built on hyperbole.
You said our Texas recruiting will suffer because we won't play in Texas nearly as often, but didn't respond when I pointed out that we would go from 1 game on average in TX to 0.5 games.
You said proximity matters, but didn't respond when I pointed out that Columbia is closer to many deep south locales than Houston, a huge recruiting area for us.
You've clearly have built into your head that Mizzou will fail miserably in SEC recruiting to help you cope. Do your thing.
