Question:
What are your experiences with seeing a player with no high school accolades (all district- all state, all region, etc.) and playing in college. There are a myriad of reasons (Which may or may not have to do with ability) a player might not receive these recognitions, but seems like lots of players in college DO have them.
What importance is generally placed on these High School recognitions by college coaches?

This may spark a coaches attention, but what they want is a guy who will help them win.

College players have them because the whole idea is to get better in college and then to be awarded recognition to help the program,
