Yeah, 25 rebounds is just stupid. Is he 8 foot tall now?Like, seriously. What in the F
It's hard to score 25 pts in a HS game let alone 44 too. Especially when the other team is doing all they can to make it so his teammates have to beat them instead. 26 is my career high in HS and I had to make a lot of free throws to get it. I think I made 8 of 9 if my memory hasn't faded. I'm just always amazed when I see some of the crooked numbers a kid like him can do routinely.Yeah, 25 rebounds is just stupid. Is he 8 foot tall now?

Exactly. If you consider that one board is worth 2 pts and difficult boards are worth 3, that's like scoring 50 some points worth of rebounds in a high school game. Know what I'm sayin?I faced Jeff Horner in high school a bunch of times and our plan was always to box and 1 him...deny him the ball. I think the most he ever scored on us was 25 points or so. 45 points is just stupid
And the 25 rebounds. How does one kid get 25 rebounds?

Muscatine is 4AThis is what happens when you're one of the best players in the country playing 3-A basketball. He's just so much better than everyone.
He put up some points too in HS that's for sure. I was an undersized shooting guard. Brody Boyd type of player. I handled the ball some but mostly ran off screens to catch and shoot. We had a big guy that we played through for the most part so unless he felt like passing it out my touches were sporadic. Had a couple pretty good games but nothing that turned any heads. I never played against anyone that put up more then 30 I don't think. Again 25 is tough to do for 8 min quarters. I'd love to know what a 40 pt game felt like once.I faced Jeff Horner in high school a bunch of times and our plan was always to box and 1 him...deny him the ball.

I'm probably going to catch hell for this, but how is Patrick McCaffery supposedly ranked higher than Joe Wieskamp? I believe Pat is supposed to be top 30 while Joe is top 50 or 60. Doesn't make any sense to me.
Patrick McCaffery (4A) (6'7" ish)
Junior Stats so far:
Avg: 19.4pts, 6 rbds, 2.8 steals, 1 blocks, 3 assists, 1.6 turnovers
Avg: FG 44.6%, 3PT 25%, FT 83.3%
Joe Wieskamp (4A) (6'6" or 6'7")
Junior Stats:
Avg: 30.4pts, 10.2 rbds, 1.81 steals, 1.95 blocks, 2.54 assists, 2.72 turnovers
Avg: FG 56.1%, 3PT 41.1%, FT 81.8%

Possibly, but Pat's numbers don't exactly scream Top 30. Didn't Joe finish top 20 or 25 in that one NBA camp?Only initial thought was Joes national class is better?? No idea if that is the case but would be could make sense why he’s ranked lower.

So, it's not so much where he is now, but based on his potential? I guess that doesn't do much service to these ranking systems/analysts.well, i think they're ranked by class and i also think Patrick is now 6'9" (pushing 6'10"). look at his film and ask yourself if that is normal agility and ball handling for a 6'9" 16 year old. PM is a lot of potential, to be sure, but he is very smooth and actually looks like he could be an even more athletic version of Nunge.
The kid is already rated as a top one in his class overall. Hopefully folks are feeding him to put some weight on. He's a string bean for now. I think in 2 yrs this team is going to be scary goodwell, i think they're ranked by class and i also think Patrick is now 6'9" (pushing 6'10"). look at his film and ask yourself if that is normal agility and ball handling for a 6'9" 16 year old.

Ha. I was the same way. Only a foot shorter. Ha. My weight was the same from 16 to 31. No joke. Now I'm seeing what it's like to gain weight. But I can relate to him and kids like it.he makes a string bean look overweight, right now.
