Iman Shumpert of Oak Park-River Forest has informed MSH that he plans to pledge his verbal commitment this coming Thursday, October 18. Shumpert Ranks as the number one player in the class of 2008.

Shumpert stated that he still plans to chose between North Carolina, Georgia Tech, and Marquette. This past weekend, Shumpert enjoyed a visit to Marquette's campus as he was in attendance for their Midnight Madness festivities.

Shumpert has been receiving rave reviews as of late from recruiting analysts and scouts alike, many of whom are beginning to state that they believe Shumpert is showing signs of a strong NBA player. He burst onto the scene after a strong AAU campaign following his sophomore season. He quickly became the hottest commodity the state of Illinois had to offer garnering offers from every power conference. Many believe that Shumpert is Illinois' best shot at a McDonald's All American this season.

In the minds of some, Shumpert is not only the most prolific scorer in the state, but among the best in the entire nation. Nonetheless, there has been talk of Shumpert playing point guard at the collegiate level. Whatever position he ends up playing at, the future looks very bright for Iman Shumpert.
