Message: [QUOTE="HuskyNan, post: 4225587, member: 4"] Usually that’s a function of how many times the kid was seen. If she was seen once or twice and had bad or middling games at that time, she might not be ranked too highly. Also, some kids just flip the switch and “get it” one game when a scout isn’t there. Someone like Caroline, for example, may not have been seen much because she played for a NEPSAC team in New England, usually not a hotbed of talent. Once UConn showed interest, her ranking rose as people started to pay attention to her. Too bad for other schools they didn’t work the local networks like Geno does. AAU and high school coaches in New England love him because he makes an effort to meet them and stay in touch. in sheer numbers, there aren’t a lot of girls basketball scouts and they just can’t go to all games in every state. Many have a real, I.e. paying, job and do the scouting part time, as I did. Some get missed (see Beard, Alana and Morrow, Aneesa) [/QUOTE]
