Five Star is high school senior with five years to play four
Former two star walk-on is now on schollie in Big-5 Conference, All Conference, if not AA Honorable Mention with two years left to play
both play same position, which one do you offer?
what if former walk-on, now All Conference, has only one year left to play?
discuss
Is this a hypothetical or are there names attached? The walk on sure seems like a nice story. All Conference means he's actually proven it, regardless of where he started.
Depends on need. If you are USC in its current situation you take as TS says , the proven commodity. If you have a solid roster you take the HS guy with 5 years to play and develop him because he will help you for a longer time period.
Latter, proven commodity at the show
