In CIS defense, this is not hyping up a greentree AA. This is the major ranking service putting the list out. I candidly was shocked to see him on it. He got some decent practice reports here and there were some murmurs about him perhaps being a diamond in the rough, but nothing like he was taking over DT1.
I am interested in how On3 got their info? 80% of the kids on that list are 5* or very highly ranked, they seem like the low hanging fruit for guessing AA. So someone is high on him to rank him over every other frosh DT.
To your point yes lets not run wild with this, he obviously needs time and no one wants to rely on a TF DT.
