There's actually a very good answer to that.

Most of it is because Norm had an icy relationship towards the end of his tenure (I believe he had a falling out with a Vashon coach who was a major AAU guy in the area), Snyder then tried to recruit nationally and neglected STL altogether and MA pretty much just recruited relatives and folks from Alabama.

It's been a coaching issue over the last 10-15 years in STL. It's actually a very sore subject among the MU faithful; we're all equally perplexed that the MU coaches aren't working harder in STL. It has nothing to do with the personality of the city, but with the negligence of the coaching staff.
