My statement: Bolus rankings are absolutely horrible. Since that is the subject of this thread.

Mercer by 11. Just too much depth.

You are correct.

What are some of the best team camps coming up in June? Wanting to get out and see as many kids as possible next month! Post some dates and locations of good team camps, and maybe team lists if you have them!

Got a couple not so good players on this team... Just a guess, but this team will get destroyed by Indiana, twice.

Yikes.... I cannot agree with the statement that Niece is MUCH better than Berger.... I guess that's your opinion however. :ohbrother:

Mercer County by double digits. Too much talent, could win by 20+ if they are really hitting shots.

SHA by 7.

It is hard to know. Some players are never the same after knee injuries, some come back stronger and better. Only time will tell.

I think Murray at 6 is about right without Waldrop.

Wouldn't call ETown deep... Butler and Mercer County are "deep."

Did GRC add a transfer from Lloyd Memorial? Behanan?

"Varney" is a good player. Will help Simon Kenton significantly.

I'm not saying that those players don't play college ball if they do not play AAU. Clearly. But they definitely do not get the accolades and awards they received without being put out in front of these evaluators. The injection of McDonald's All-Americans was due to the fact that Derby listed McDonald's All-Americans in his post above.... Follow along.

Derby... Do you know who the McDonald's All-American Committee Members are? They are all very very involved in AAU. They are all AAU people or are closely connected. Regardless of how talented these players are, they would not be picked as All-Americans without being on one of the highest travel circuits. Last year 18 of the 24 Girls McDonald's All-American's played on the Nike Girls EYBL circuit. (Kentucky Premier had 2 of those). The other 6 were on very high level independent AAU programs. Not one player was a McDonald's All-American that did not play travel ball. Those days are over, there will never be another MCDAA that does not play AAU. I don't know how you think this stuff works, but it is no different than the boys side. Travel basketball dominates the game, and you will not be seen if you do not play. PS - Igo is rated way too low. She is much better than 5th in the region.
