Hang around long enough and you'll learn just how little "post season recognition" really means @ the HS level. At least in our area, many other factors seem to dictate who the awardees end up being. For example a PG rated 10 with likely draft interest made 7th team All State while half a dozen other area players made higher lists. I've seen these kids play, anybody with half an eye for talent picks the 7th teamer waaaaay ahead of any of the higher picks. BTW, i don't have a dog in the race, my kids are younger.
