The following is about a prep player in Arizona but who he is and where he is from is not the story. It's all about recruit-ability.

Without going into much in the way of concrete details, the writer cover the elephant-in-the-living-room subject of college coaches weighing concerns about siging a kid who might turn out very good, might be a problem, or both.

Great players, or those with NBA potential, have a stronger allure. Coaches are more willing to take a chance if the payoff might be substantial. For talents below that level, it's get much iffier.

Anyway, head here and take a read. This has applicability throughout the country.
