I understand the top showcases for 2021's are Maverick Showtime, Adrenaline Black Card, Jake Reed and Prep School Showcase and then Philly Freshman Showcase in the Fall.
I get that some top schools - Hopkins and UNC, for example - mostly filled their 2020 classes even before the Philly Freshman Showcase.
But is there any point to worrying about the whole showcase circuit until a player hits their growth spurt? Apart from size, post-puberty athleticism just seems different to me.
PS - NY has almost 4x the number of HS players as MD. Easy to find NFHS participation rates. Interesting how many players there are in non-hotbeds like CA, FL, GA, NC, VA, CO and OH.
