I tend to take things like Kirby calling KW to smooth over the Kevin Harris deal with a grain of salt. As I've said, I think KW cares about those kids and their families, but I also think he has some serious self-agrandizing tendencies.

I have a running theory that most of the Grayson kids in this class (OP the exception) are significantly overrated by the recruiting services due in large part to the massive marketing campaign they have all had run for them since middle school. That's my guess as to why Georgia has slow played or not recruited most of them. Our '19 class is limited on spots and we think we can pull more elite guys nationally.

Guess we will find out if I'm right over the next 3-4 years.

I think most people tuned into recruiting would agree. Sentell said as much in his piece, only 1 of the 4 Grayson Four had a commitable offer. That tells you all you need to know.

You may be on to something there. Grayson has some good players, don't get me wrong, and folks are moving into that area to get their kids at the high school and into that program.

However, over the last couple of years, with all that "talent", they are still being matched on the field and in the standings by other GCPS schools - Archer, Mill Creek, North Gwinnett. The hype and ratings for a lot of the players don't always seem to match the results on the field.
