Most of those East St. Louis kids are going to have a hard time qualifying out of HS. Missouri's ability to take care of them is one of the reasons Sunkett likes Pinkel now.
Beckner doesn't seem to have the same issue, but the next big kid - 2017 WR Jeff Thomas - likely will. If mizzou can sign and place those kids and still get three years out of them, that's not bad.
