There could be a large amount of very good basketball players among the city population. But they have to be both good at basketball and a college student, which may narrow that considerably.

Look at the guys we have actually signed from Chicago over the years. Most of them didn't work out for off the court reasons.

Pinson's local ranking - firstimecaller25 MU - 5/3 09:26:17
     There are at least 3 NBA All Stars who were ranked similar - longtimereader MU - 5/3 13:56:15
          Pinson has several of the natural skills you want in a PG - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/3 14:02:18
               I agree but what are the basics you want - longtimereader MU - 5/3 14:25:50
                    Even though Geist didn’t start late in the season - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/3 14:46:41
                         Why do you think that was the case and what was the record? - longtimereader MU - 5/3 15:10:30
                              Geist and Jontay both moved to the bench - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/3 15:33:40
                                   You're evading the point - longtimereader MU - 5/3 15:44:36
     One thing that's really odd about that list..... - GapDaddy MU - 5/3 10:03:05

               3rd straight year of no McD AA; only 1 in 2015 - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 10:21:09
                    He didn't even start, but is still 247's #4 ranked IL player - Diamond Dave MU - 5/3 10:35:43
                         RE: He didn't even start, but is still 247's #4 ranked IL player - redkerr UI - 5/3 19:19:38
                         is player #233 close to a consensus 4 star? - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 10:42:30
                              .8840 247 ranking - Diamond Dave MU - 5/3 10:48:41
                                   #128 is the last 4 Star. - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 10:56:13
                                        Geist went to JUCO because that was his best - FIJItiger MU - 5/3 11:13:21
                                             No one said he had qualification issues. - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 12:13:40
                                                  Point being there is no comparable past MU example - FIJItiger MU - 5/3 12:17:39
                                                       No that’s dumb(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 12:32:47
                                        Right, but if the ranking did hit .9000, then obviously - Diamond Dave MU - 5/3 11:04:44
                                             But, there are 100 players ranked ahead of him. - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 12:12:07
                                        What's the story on Malcolm Bell from Leo. Is he getting any - Uncle John MU - 5/3 11:03:56
                                             Good question. On talent alone he should. - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 12:17:18
                                        Geist was a low major recruit out of high school - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/3 11:03:33
                    shifts in population? or people moving? - GapDaddy MU - 5/3 10:23:28
                         I don’t think coaching is as strong anymore. - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 10:28:59
                              How many are in prep schools? (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/3 10:35:14
                                   In the entire state? No idea. (nm) - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 10:45:01
                                        No how many Chicago kids are moving away - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/3 10:47:40
                                             Not sure. Probably another factor.(nm) - tjwheeler UI - 5/3 10:57:11
     Get him on steroids. I know some guys(nm) - TheWildcat STL - 5/3 09:49:14
          Roid Niggo(nm) - MidMoBaller4Life MU - 5/3 09:50:39
               Lol(nm) - TheWildcat STL - 5/3 09:55:40
     247 has Pinson as the 4th ranked senior - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/3 09:43:55
          And not that it matters, but very close to their 4-star - Diamond Dave MU - 5/3 10:32:31
     Iowa State seems to be doing well in Chi-Town - Mormad MU - 5/3 09:32:13
          It will be quite the test playing at Iowa St this year.(nm) - Uncle John MU - 5/3 09:36:09
               Hilton atmosphere is similar to Hearnes back in the day - alstl MU - 5/3 10:15:56
