I love it T. From what I read and hear about Sam... and from what I have seen of Roth.... I am happy to see Sam fly under the radar.

But then Matt has another year... will he soar as high next year? I don't know - I am a terrible person to ask about HS talent.

[amckillip]

Should Roth be above Sam? From what I have read Roth is pretty one dimensional and Sam seems to be more talented and well rounded? I really don't know so I'm asking those more knowledgeable than I.

[BradleyBrave]

Roth is a better shooter, but Sam is a much more complete player. Sam's a pretty darn good shooter too!

I think we've answered the question of 'Where's Sam?'

I'm certain that how deep each kid's team went into the playoffs had a bit to do with how highly they got rated.
Why else Bill Cole on 1st team, when nobody in Chicago has had any repsect for him all year long?

Since Maniscalco didn't get any respect from the State voters, then I guess he will just have to become an All-American at BU!

Since Maniscalco didn't get any respect from the State voters, then I guess he will just have to become an All-American at BU!

I think part of that is because his team was overshadowed by St. Joe's in their conference (despite beating them), and that he committed to BU rather than DePaul.
