We have had many discussions on this site regarding ratings , ranking etc and I would like to take it one step further that the showcase people ratings.
We have found that we can look at a player as a certain level type player and a college coach sees him and says I like what I see and that coach is coaching at a level higher than what we saw the player at.
Another aspect in this "evalauation process" is getting to know the player. I cannot tell you how many players who have played with us came in with us thinking they were at this level or that level---after being with them from August to October things might change, positively or negatively
What I am trying to say is that the bottom line is one that may change---all coaches see something different--they do not all see the same thing in a player
Thus if you are now sitting waiting for a call do not give up--as the dust settles after early siginings, freshman not making it thru the first semester and players looking to transfer a lot can happen
Folks there is so much that goes into the process and as long as you work hard at it good things happen
FOOTNOTE: my own son did not get his situation until late May and it was at a Division I program---So YES good things can happen provided the talent is there
