Message: [QUOTE="Lefty2one, post: 3111831, member: 1001"] Right. The moment a kid steps onto a college court you can forget about his HS ranking. Go back and look at HS rankings from any year; you'll find kids you either never heard of or forgot they existed because they did nothing at the collegiate level. There are busts every single year. Hell, to keep it recent just look at MAL: 38th ranked player in the country yet he belongs in the NEC or the MAAC. Scouts get this stuff wrong all the time. This is the same ridiculous thing going on with Cam Reddish and his NBA draft projections. If the kid wasn't a highly-touted recruit he'd be taken somewhere around 25th. Instead, people keep talking about how great he was supposed to be coming out of HS and that he'll be the 5-7th pick in the draft. [/QUOTE]
