08-18-07 By Gary Knox Basketball is oxygen. I live, breathe, and sleep basketball. gPrep.net was born
from my hunger for the game. I’m a student of the game. I was a high school I created gPrep’s girls high school basketball top 100 rankings after extensive research, interviews and firsthand courtside accounts. From time to time, I may discover a player who’s not ranked but should be… or a player who’s ranked high but plays flat. That will trigger a slide in the rankings. The rankings are one part of the player’s “game” profile and are not meant to limit or stunt a player’s potential. Numbers are important in basketball. Victories and records are based on them. In any rankings, there is a top, middle, and bottom. During 2006-2007, Saint Paul Central’s Angel Robinson had a great year and emerged as the “Player of the Year”. But it took a full year, a post season run, and championship before her true greatness was realized. The rankings are fluid, a work in progress, a guide, a gauge, a measuring stick. I get new player information everyday and I sometimes discover a player unknown to me. That discovery may cause the rankings to shift up, down or standstill. The bottom line is Minnesota has a very good talent pool, full of elite basketball players. I am obligated and committed to getting it right. I have created a feedback form for basketball fans to fill out, if they feel a player is omitted or should move up or down in the ranking. In an effort to be fair, accurate and thorough in gPrep’s rankings, I take EVERYTHING into account: player stats, player reputation, performance against other I look at everything. If I trust a player’s consistent play and feel good about her game, more than likely she will make gPrep’s rankings. Please fill out the rankings recommendation feedback form, if you would like to submit a player for consideration. I will take an objective look at all the facts.
