    Bravo, Patrick! May Illinois be well-represented.

  • http://slamonline.com Bryan Crawford

    This is going to be good.

  • http://www.edthesportsfan.com Ed The Sports Fan

    Very interesting…I feel like the #1 team is going to be a major shock to me. Nice work Pat.

  • http://slamonline.com Ben Osborne

    Very excited for this. Big thanks to Patrick and Ryne!

  • Z Money

    Nice list but “Glendale High School” in CA should actually be “Glendora High School”. Just sayin.

  • http://slamonline.com/ Ryne Nelson

    Thanks, Z. We’re expecting some errors with such a huge project. But work with us, and we’ll make the right corrections.

    @Ryne/Ben:

    Thanks again for the chance to put this together, and to Ryne for the editing.

    @Z:

    My fault on that. Hopefully that’s the last of the typos.

    @Ed:

    There are definitely a few under the radar schools in the top 10 I didn’t expect would out-rank some really well known ones whose scores came out a bit lower than expected in the point system I used.

    Awesome Patrick, I read all your stuff on MLive and was bummed when you stopped writing for them…This is a very interesting piece, looking forward to reading the rest of the list.

    Artesia H.S. in CA should make the honorable mention list.
    Ed O’Bannon, Charles O’Bannon, Jason Kapono, James Harden, Tom Tolbert, Tony Farmer. Based on your point system, they should be around 30pts. Just sayin’.
