Continue ReadingWith the updated release of the top 200 rankings and an expanded watch list for the class of 2023 on Monday, it is time to take a look at some of the top players in the biggest areas of Indiana. We will start in the state’s Northern half and work our way down to the Southern half where we finish off with Evansville. We have looked at the Region, Fort Wayne, and South Bend, and today, we will look at the rest of Northern Indiana.
We currently have 22 players from the rest of Northern Indiana in the Class of 2023 database with 11 in our top 200 and 6 in the top 100. All other players on our watch list are listed in alphabetical order with no ranking order whatsoever. Cooper Farrall Cooper Farrall 6'5" | SF Culver Academy | 2023 State IN , a small forward from Culver Academy, sits in the top spot in the Northern Indiana rankings. Farrall currently has one division one offer from Purdue Fort Wayne, but he has shown his skills time and time again. He was one of the standouts at the KG Elite 24 earlier this month, and it is really a surprise that he does not have more offers than he does.
Jaxson Gould Jaxson Gould 6'3" | SG Warsaw | 2023 State IN , a shooting guard from Warsaw, comes in next in the Northern Indiana rankings. Gould is a tough, smart shooting guard who can score it as well as anyone in the state, and the Indiana Wesleyan commit is going to be one of the top scorers in Northern Indiana this season. Landon Biegel Landon Biegel 6'4" | SF Oak Hill | 2023 State IN , a forward for Oak Hill, is a strong forward with a ton of upside. He currently has offers from Grace, Huntington, and Indiana Wesleyan, and I would expect more to come rolling in throughout the season. A trio of forwards ranked in the 90s comes in next in the Northern Indiana rankings. Folabomi Fayemi Folabomi Fayemi 6'4" | PF Culver Academy | 2023 State IN from Culver Academy, Tyson Good Tyson Good 6'6" | SF Lewis Cass | 2023 State IN from Lewis Cass, and J.J. Morris J.J. Morris 6'6" | SF Argos | 2023 State IN from Argos. Fayemi is a long, athletic post player who thrives with his defensive ability. He can guard multiple positions, and he is an outstanding shot blocker. Good is an athletic wing who can do a little bit of everything, but he is at his best when he uses his athleticism to make plays for both himself and his teammates. Morris is an under-the-radar player who had an outstanding summer with GPP Black. He is strong and makes his living inside, and with his Manchester offer, I would expect more Division 3 offers to come his way soon. I would expect all three of these guys to put up really impressive senior seasons.
Now, let’s take a look at the full list of 2023 rankings for Northern Indiana.
