  1. Tobi Oyedeji
    97. Tobi Oyedeji 6-8 210 PF Bellaire (Bellaire, TX) *Texas A&M 93 85 –

    Hate to point this out, but I believe he passed away in a car wreck on prom night. Ill see if I can get a link to the story.

  2. I am not saying I agree or
    I am not saying I agree or disagree…but who thinks rivals went out on a limb when they last updated their rankings putting Selby #1?
    I’m neutral cause I’m really yet to see these kids play besides the all-star circuit and maybe a few of em on espn 1 or 2 times…

  3. Kaela King at #52 is
    Kaela King at #52 is TRAGIC….And so is Jamail Jones at 84!

    King will be an All-Conference player immediately and he has a very strong all-around game (think of another Arizona State guy by the name of James Harden).

    Jones is athletic and a good shooter. I expect him to be one of the better players in the class, and a legit NBA prospect by this time next season.

  4. Where is Seth Curry???
    Does he even exist? I don’t understand how he doesn’t register on this site.

    He is going to be playing at DUKE after being the leading freshman scorer in the country at Liberty and you know that Curry bloodline. But Still no love???

  5. Pe’Shon Howard
    Pe’Shon Howard is one of the best point guards in this class. Hes from Oak Hill Academy and is going to Maryland. Watch out for him.

    And Doron Lamb is the most overrated player on this list. The only thing the kid can do is shoot and hes even that good at it. I saw him play every game of his senior year, and trust me, Pe’Shon Howard would destroy him.

  6. Tyler Lamb is gonna have to
    Tyler Lamb is gonna have to be a real good freshman and be able to get after it defensively. I haven’t seen much of him but I know in Ben Howland’s system, if you want to play as a freshman, its def not easy, especially since they have some returning players in the back court who are gonna play heavy min.
