Saw that MaxPreps state-by-state thing. Dustin Driver not greater than Reese McGuire, and it’s funny because McGuire made the 2013 pre-season list and, um, Driver didn’t. Hmmm. That RH Starter list is solid, but no way is Casey Shane not a Top 20 guy.
I found Andy McGuire not being listed as the top player in Virginia to be off. Most of the others, besides McGuire/Driver, I can see the reasoning even if I don’t agree.
On the RHP list, Shane definitely belongs and I would also have trouble leaving Clinton Hollon off.
E Dub I’m happy you said something.I believe thats Matt Garroich site from minorleagueball.com the guy who does most of their Draft Stuff.He also doesn’t buy into Denneys Defense which is absurd.
No Clinton Hollon? or Keegan Thompson or Kevin Davis or Robert Tyler or Casey Shane?
But Blatch and Meisner? That’s just absurd.
Looking at the state rankings.I disagreed with a few of them.
Ben Bowden for Massachusetts was a great pick.Good to see some Talent coming this way although he’s gotten barely any notice as far as the draft goes,
There is a player I had in an Under the Radar called Tom Marinczyk. He is a very underrated player.
