Message: [QUOTE="businesslawyer, post: 3111451, member: 55"] This train of thought is mind numbing. The debate over how much weight to put on recruiting rankings in the first place is understandable and will never end. But those who go gaga over recruiting rankings AFTER SOMEONE HAS ACTUALLY PLAYED A YEAR IN COLLEGE AND YOU CAN TELL HOW GOOD HE IS I just don't understand. Might he end up being a good player? Absolutely. You don't write talented kids off as freshmen. But based on his first year is he reasonable likely to be Kemba Walker? Or even Rodney Purvis (go back and look at his rookie year stats in the ACC). Absolutely not. I truly don't get this. Do folks judge NFL youngsters by their star ratings in high school? Or how they perform? [/QUOTE]
