Maverick has fewer kids - 160 vs. 240 for Jake Reed and is therefore more selective

Maverick has an All-Star game which college coaches like, Jake Reed doesn't

Maverick is better organized and better run with fewer fields/closer together which makes it easier for coaches to watch and evaluate

Jake Reed is still good/coveted, but for the reasons above plus a view that 3D has watered down Jake Reed by expanding the # of kids to 240, marketing hype, etc., Maverick is more important/higher profile right now. Plus they have better garb for the kids ):
