[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 537117, member: 1776"] I think the ranking systems are pretty valid especially near the top. BB players play against each other in AAU all the time so it is pretty easy to see who the dominant talents are. The Top 25 for the most part are the Top 25. There really isn't alot of argument there. Where you start having a bigger ask is after about the Top 50 to the Top 150. There is not usually alot of difference between those players and it really comes down to where do they go and how do they fit in the place they go to - and how do they develop once they get there. A kid can be #125 but be developed alot better at one school than the #55 player is developed at a second school and that #125 kid will turn out to be the better college player because there wasn't a huge spread to begin with and then that player grows more. It will be interesting once the NBA does away with the one and done rule in a few years how many of those Top 25 kids go to college at all. You need difference makers - but not all difference makers come from the Top 25. Okogie was a difference maker and he wasn't a Top 150 kid coming into college. I think Jose is going to be a difference maker and he wasn't a 4* player. [/QUOTE]
