    This should be a regular annual feature. A great perspective on the hype coming out of high school and how it turns out for most of these guys.

    Yeah, Mark, I thought it was interesting, given all the hype about the recruits right now. This was actually my bf’s idea, but a really excellent one. Some players are turning out really well while others didn’t do so hot in college. It’s not a matter of talent - they’ve proven their talent. It’s a matter of personal dedication to the sport and coaching.
