- Location- Moving around Philly was less than an ideal. Kids hiking 2 miles in the heat from hotel to field [Censored]. No offense to UPenn but its not even an great stadium or facilities so location gets a 2/5
- Talent- Def had 4 star talent with a few 5 stars 4/5
- Coaches- YES, all were there….and several mentioned having seen my son play well there during recruiting (4 star) 5/5
- Timing- it was early in the season so the boy was fresh off HS season and not tired. where it sat in the season to make 5/5
- Cost- are they still charging to be evaluated, that was shadey at best. Hotel rooms in Philly are more expensive than most locations. 3/5
- Swag- got some cool gear tbh. Think the hoodie he got was his favorite of the summer but not gloves and helmet like Showtiime……with that said, found Showtime difficult with everyone wearing the same helmet, gloves and shorts. 5/5
- All in all, having been to pretty much every single showcase, this event is much better with Schrieber running it then the low down thief that had it before.
- According to the boy, the kids see the showcase pecking order as Showtime, Main Stage and Juniors.
- Overall Rizz Rating 4.5
