There is not this huge pool of players with equal talent being left off these lists, but there are players who in college achieve as much or more than the incoming top players. There are some really good players from the IL 2015 incoming freshman watch list who clearly were top 50 in their class as college players, most notably Dempsey Arsenault. None of the 2019 Tewaaraton finalists were top 10 incoming freshman, and two weren't even ranked top 50.


Wow, best post yet and the Tewaaraton point is actually pretty amazing
