Emeneke was there last year so Im not sure what eligibility issues there would be this season. Thats a meaningful loss for Riordan because every elite team needs a defensive-minded center.
Been thinking of the tremendous amount of talent that has gone through that program the last 10 years but not one (except Ferrari [G-League]) has made any real dent on the national college stage or almost pro. It just shows are extremely difficult it is to make it.
The last WCAL player to have such a showing was Trammell on San Diego St.... Feel free to chime if you know of any from the last 10-15 years.
Tyler Johnson, St. Francis, played for a decade in the NBA. I believe he won the 6th man of the year award one season.
His little brother Logan was a good player at Cincinnati and St. Mary’s as well.
I hear you though. At one point a few years back in the MLB the WCAL could have fielded a full team. Maybe had the most pros in the MLB from any HS league nationwide?
They’ve always had several NFL players playing at the same time too.
Serra has the NFL GOAT, Tom Brady, and on many people’s list, the MLB GOAT, Barry Bonds.
Basketball it’s Tyler and the Gordan brothers for the NBA in the last 10-15 years.
If you just looking at D1 impact players, the baseball list is a few pages. The football list is decent too. Basketball as you pointed out, not so much. However, there are a few.
