Take a good look at this list now because it’s bound to change (dramatically?) over the course of the next few months. That’s right, you just know some new name is going to burst onto the scene ala Vakeaton Wafer did two years ago.
Up at the top, there’s little reason to change. Greg Oden is and remains the best prospect in his class. A game changer defensively, Oden was recently announced as the Gatorade National High School player of the year!
Scanning the Top 10 you’ll find a few changes but other than Paul Harris, the names pretty much remain the same. The Top 5 is strong as five players 6-foot-8 or better make it a tough group to crack. However, Wayne Ellington sitting there at No. 6 is just waiting for someone to slip up!
Harris earned his way into the Top 10 by simply being a worker. We still aren’t sure what position he occupies on the college level but we’re way past that. He’s a kid you find a place for him and let him do his thing.
If you’re into Top 100 lists, we hope you like this one!
