Question for the group: what difference does it make which PG showcase you attend? Isn't your rating dependent on your metrics, not the event?

I'm guessing, in part, but in some parts of the country a PG Showcase will offer better competition that in others. A chance to stand out against excellent players in the game portion of the event?

I don't understand, in this day and age, why someone would attend a showcase in order to get metrics. You can find out your 60 time, Exit Velo, and Throwing Velo on your own very easily, for free or almost free. Why pay $600 plus travel expenses for that?

I'm a big fan of Perfect Game, and when/if my kid is ready to get on the recruiting radar we plan on attending multiple PG events, but in the meantime I could recite for you his Exit Velo & 60 time from last week, last month, last year etc etc all of which we easily found out on our own.

You only get one chance to make a first impression. Make it count.
