Message: [QUOTE="pfister1, post: 2621365, member: 285"] Nah, its just like recruiting. If the mocks aren't listing a guy and the fans don't know about him, no one does. It always strikes me as funny that people don't realize that both the scouting services and the mock drafts are really looking at things from the fan side of the fence. If an NBA team identifies Donte DiVincenzo as a guy that they think has first round potential, what possible benefit is it to them to share that determination with the other 30 franchises? Similar with a high school recruit. If SU identifies Brycen Gooden or Robert Braswell as a guy that they think can help and are deserving of a scholarship, what benefit is it to us for them to get identified by the scouting services as 4 star or 5 star guys. They make the evaluations based on their own judgments having very little to do with what we see, or when we see it. [/QUOTE]
