After watching hundreds of player films these are who I project to be the best players at the collegiate level. These names are in no particular order.
Please note: this is an honorable mention and NOT a redone version of the rankings. Kids on this list are simply the top kids that were not included in the top 25. Updated rankings will be released in the future.
