I think people should recognize that sometimes encouragement can make all the difference for a young man. Sometimes the mid-tier (or lower tier) prospect becomes the top-shelf prospect with time, patience, perseverance, and willingness to outwork the competition among other things.
Maybe someone is classified as mid-tier now but three years from now after a college weight training program and experience, you might not even recognize that kid who has now grown into a young man. Sometimes the tortoise ends up beating the hare. Sometimes the ugly duckling becomes the beautiful swan.

What may be "mid-tier" at College X may be a "top-tier" at College Y. Keep looking and do what you can to find "Y".
