The difference might be that KLS's team is ranked #1 in the nation while Durr's is not a national power.

It's like betting on horse-racing. Sometimes the favorites produce. Sometimes longshots sneak in there. In the final analysis...it comes down to the individual's ability to learn. perform and listen at the next level. <br /><br />PaulieCardinal Couplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10565155435705858363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-32490846324366325162015-02-26T11:50:58.751-05:002015-02-26T11:50:58.751-05:00Rankings are a good starting point, but not the en...Rankings are a good starting point, but not the end all. Most players (most, not all!) will get better at the next level. A one star senior in high school can develop into a 4 star senior college player with the right coaching and work ethic. I like to use Gorgui as a good example, he was NOT very good as a freshman, ended up not even playing his senior year in college.kstarksrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11465351067278768743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-29891517853963039772015-02-26T11:23:50.067-05:002015-02-26T11:23:50.067-05:00Katie Lou is a 6'3" wing that has a good ...Katie Lou is a 6'3" wing that has a good midrange and 3 point shooting resume.

Some coaches passed on her because of "coachability" issues. Preliminary high school rankings aren't worth the printer ink it takes to generate them. The true test is how the individual reacts and performs at that next level. Charmaine Tay came in as a highly ranked, all-world prospect. Two schools and five years later, she's singing rap songs on YouTube. Angel McCoughtry spent a year at a postgrad school and disappeared from the rankings. Tom Collen remembered her and brought her on board. <br /><br />Rankings, like recruiting, are a roll of the dice. <br /><br />Blue Lou<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-42616655753318883532015-02-26T09:20:34.653-05:002015-02-26T09:20:34.653-05:00Shoni Schimmel was ranked 5th in her class and end...Shoni Schimmel was ranked 5th in her class and ended up being the MVP of the <br />WNBA all-star game in her rookie season. Those ranking are incredibly arbitrary and frequently wrong. Though I admit the possibility that Durr may be overrated, I have a feeling that she is not and will be an amazing asset to the Cards program, success and legacy.

They play different positions, of course, and Samuelson played against bigger schools than Durr in high school.<br /><br />I'll take my chances with Durr. One good thing about a guard is that it's easier to get the ball in her hands than it is for a wing or, especially, a post player. And for the next four years the ball will be in Durr's hands a lot.Mike Dnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8945676324950180664.post-68961376113067100512015-02-26T07:41:12.449-05:002015-02-26T07:41:12.449-05:00You took the words out of my mouth.
