Who's there that you knew or played with or played against that made you stand back and say, wow, we'll see him on TV someday.
Good question I had to think about it for awhile.
In all honesty, players that we know personally from sons playing years, have seen more we thought would make it , not make it, than those that actually are on their way now to making it.
It's just another example that it's very hard to judge where a young player might end up in the scheme of things.
If you think really hard about it, it's very sobering.
I will tell you one player we followed all through HS, ARod. There was no mistaking that he was indeed going to be a star and a big one at that.
