If you go back as far a 2002 you will find that these lists are meaningless. Most never did anything in college let alone even being drafted.
They should show this to ever high school basketball player and tell them that they might want to focus on learning something besides being able to hit a jumo shot.

Actually, AJ Price won't be working security at Best Buy. He'll probably be selling computers there. In the store or in the alley behind it? As for the topic at hand, you can see a similar trend among Georgetown recruits. How often does the most hyped member of a recruiting class become the most productive? Just last year everybody was talking about Vernon as our star recruit, but DaJuan ended up being the most productive, and even Rivers got more minutes than Vernon. Fortunately for us that was a product of our two lower-rated recruits exceeding expectations, and not our star recruit being a bust (the best is yet to come from Vernon). |

Actually I think by the end of their senior year everyone recognized DaJaun as the better prospect. |
