A superstar shooting guard at the high school level from St. Louis, Mckinney was a huge recruiting get for the program and a symbol of recapturing the St. Louis talent pool. However, like many players from that era his career got sidetracked by playing under Quin Snyder’s offensive system. Never allowed to find a role, Mckinney was ultimately forced out of position to point guard due to necessity and struggled. Still for his career he tallied 1,146 points, 422 rebounds, and 349 assists. Jimmy was 1 of only 4 MU players all time to reach 1,100 points, 400 rebounds, and 300 assists. He is the 6th best free throw shooter in program history. His final season he led all seniors in scoring in the Big 12 conference back when it was still a major conference . However, he finished his career having suited up in more losses than any Tiger in history (a mark since surpassed by countless Tigers).
