lots of these kids aren't "in" ontario anymore? what does corey being at findley have to do with anything? and I read they're ranked 4th in the states which is nice for corey. either way corey's one of the most well known canadian players... Jim obviously didnt just forget to put him on, definitely waiting for next year. And maybe maurice and tyrell and ashton haven't officially said if they're staying or not and he's putting them in this to be safe?

Corey's born in 91 but is in his grade 11 year in the states... so obviously he wouldn't be on this list. other players that you guys are crying about that are in the 2010 class are kofi and JP

no way
There is no way Mattias Zankpe should be on this list I watched him play this past weekend he has no skill he is just a big body. I dont think much people have heard of him outside his home town
uwo on 2009-01-04 16:20:41.
no way
There is no way Mattias Zankpe should be on this list any where. I watched him play this past weekend he has no skill at all he is just a big body.
uwo on 2009-01-04 16:16:40.

Some people that I believe are missing from this list and are no doubt top 60,

melvin ejim
kofi mensah
taevaun prince
corey joe
kamran alvi
manny sahota
tamoy lewis
david boyce
dwayne harvey

There are also a few that should not be on your top 60 list but I will not post that. Good day.

#5 Shooting Guard Mark Perrin is not at Crawford. He is attending Walla Walla University, an NAIA school in Washington state.
Again....who is he watching??...and when did he watch them??? 1 year ago??..2 years ago??..And he's reporting on them now??
How can he be taken seriously?

And another thing, there is grade 12's added in here and I am 100% sure that Cory Joseph is the TOP point guard or maybe 2nd next to Junior Cadougan.
Anonymous on 2008-12-31 12:59:17.
try it again
jim thomas...listen to what you have heard and
do a little more research and try it all over again. would love to see this list done right including missing players and correct positions.

i will grant you though that it is alot of work.
laszer on 2008-12-30 16:34:07.

it is good that there alot of NEDA players but im pretty sure they dont deserve it although they are pretty good players. Jean Paul Kampola should be the Numberr 1 centre he is the most dominate right now, offensivly and defensivily he is solid. But I would probably but Chadrack as a four with his skill, but he is also a good choice for number one.
My Number 1 choice for power forwardwould be Reynaldo, who i think by far might be more talented than Ryan Christie.
I think i would have Alex Authur under Taylor. Alex is very dominate. Can go inside and hit the three. Also very athletic. also i think that murphy is a top three small forward.
enrico might be a little too high I think Matthew and a few others on that list are better than he is.
And @ the point guard spot I would put Marvin OVER adrian seeing how he is probably not a point guard anyways. also Marvin is more level heaeded and bigger.
DEE on 2008-12-30 12:27:02.

This list is very off. If you are going to add Jean Paul Kambola from St. Benedicts and he is the same age as Tristan Thompson. And Tristan Thompson is the #1 ranked played in the country according to rivals.com.

Anthony McIntosh is in first year Grade 12. Some of the Ottawa names that were posted are 2nd year 12th grade students.
wojo12 on 2008-12-26 21:58:17.

Is this supposed to be just grade 13's? Or just grade 12's? Because it is a mixture of both. There is about 5-10 grade 12's on the list.

Anonymouse on 2008-12-24 16:04:47.

Chaddy can't post up. How can he be #1 at anything.
And is Rob Gagliardi even a point guard? I don't think so. He's a shooting guard.
billy on 2008-12-24 12:13:24.
Wrong
Chadrack is a power forward not a center

Underated
Adrian Tomlinson at number 5 are yuh serious AT has to be atleast top 3 he avg over 30ppg 7ast and like 6rebs(I am Not Adrian either so do not think less of him) those other guys are good but AT is legitly Number 2 or Number 3 no less cause Junior is ridiculous
Tha One on 2008-12-24 01:35:35.
wrongshit
matt cinjau from st chris should be mentioned in this topics hes beeen hurt the whole year but the kid can play, also your forgetting cory joseph he clearly should be up there and also mike ranger and jamie asefa from oakwood should be there, is this list for grade 12s and 12X's
bullshiittt on 2008-12-24 00:03:47.

centers.
maurice should be number 1

powerforwards
this is ontario highschool
allison isnt here
christie doesnt play "yet" (apparently)
stephen(not in ontario)
renaldo (not in ontario)
its either ryan thompson and pat donnelly(not in ontario) take a pick.

small forwards
everything is okay except for the NEDA's just a waste of space.. if they are in NEDA we know already they are great players. its not NEDA recruits crap

Shooting guards
prep taking space... again.. they do not recruit crap. we know there good. and this is ontario hopefully

point guards
pretty much the same thing

honorable mentions/maybe make top 60....
i haven't seen the toronto/peel region teams play except for campion because i dont travel far from home but i could give it a try on who could be added and i dont really know who's graduating

Dwayne Harvey Cathedral
Alex Reis Cathedral
David Boyce St. Thomas More
Evan St. Hilaire St. Thomas Aquinas
Ryan Thompson St. Thomas Aquin...
H region on 2008-12-23 19:19:52.

i think that boyd vassel from kitchener is one of the best from the area and definately should be up their for guards.......also jose colorado is a fantastic player for grand river in kitchener.
baller on 2008-12-23 17:18:50.
left off
There is one kid left off the list who is definitely a top 60 player in Canada. Name is Anthony McIntosh (6'5", PF)from Ottawa, St.Patrick's. Didn't play last year b/c of transfer rules but is being recruited by Carleton, St F.X. and Lakehead. In the Barry Hayes he is ranked as the 56th overall in Canada.

Boyce ranked #11(PG)in the Hayes report where as Hart and Angus are nowhere on his list, although this one is debatable. Harvey is arguably better than them both and is ranked #26(PG).

**Hayes rankings are Nationwide, not just specific to Ontario**

Dwayne Harvey
Dwayne Harvey is a premier point guard for CHS and should be on that list.
CHS Fan on 2008-12-23 12:59:44.

In response to Colton Hood, he is at St Davids but not eligible to play because of the transfer rules. He is, however, playing AAU again this year.

As for Cory Joseph not being on the list, I believe the list is for the class of 2009. Cory's in gr 11 so he would be class of 2010.

I am surprised not to see David Boyce from STM on the list of point guards, especially seeing as he's a Hamilton boy.
warden on 2008-12-23 12:52:00.
Colton Hood
He doesnt play on st. davids...he isnt on any d8 roster this year...dont even think hes playing or he moved on...
Paul on 2008-12-23 11:34:27.

On Power Forwards #8. Is that some weird Ryan Thomson/Pat Donnally hybrid?
zone on 2008-12-23 11:26:23.
Wrong
Good job forgetting Cory Joesph.
This is just wrong. Maybe you will get it right one year.
