2021 Position Rankings: Small Forwards

<p>The class of 2021 has proven over and over again that it is likely to be one of the best this state has had in quite some time. Best since 2012 at the least. Now, following a crazy Spring, we are attempting to sort out our newest version of the 2021 Prospect Rankings.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Today, we have updated our Position Rankings

Now, we can see that again with this 2021 class. Luke Goode and J.R. Konieczny are taking off picking up high-major offers already and it isn’t even July. That top end talent is going to be extremely help for this group because they might now be alone for very long. Jayden Brewer is developing fast and Brooks Barnhizer is a high quality prospect that could find more publicity this summer.</p> <p>Now, looking deeper at this group, what we have found is that there Ould end up being as many as 10 DI prospects. Morris is moving towards football and also out of Hamilton Southeastern (IN) so that will be readjusted but guys like Mantis and Barnett could be in line for offers down the road. Christmas and Dease already have DI offers in hand which makes 6 in total for this position.</p> <p>We have also plenty of talent looking down even deeper. Aidan Booher and Styles McCorkle are two guys that really standout as possible intriguing takes for schools because of their size and shooting ability.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Johnny Brunk has really turned himself into a player over the last year and is currently in the middle of a jump in development.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>With 24 guys here, we do have some high hopes for some jumps between now and the end of the calendar year.</p> <p>Overall, this is a spectacular group that we fully believe is going to grow and will be a big basis for the depth at the DI level.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>While Goode is the top guy at this spot right now, we do expect him and JR to go back and forth over the next year or so.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>That should make for a pretty fun time.</p>
