No argument there, BD...but then, the teams with a lot of kids from the top club programs AND a high school coach who knows how to get the most out of them...those are the teams that will hit the top of the top. Doesn't matter how great the available ingredients are, it still takes a skilled cook to make a top-notch meal. I don't think a team will be noted for greatness JUST because they have a full roster of top club players. You may not be able to make top 5 without them, but there's no guarantee you will make top 5 WITH them, either. No matter how essential club training may be for top ranking, you still can't give the clubs the ENTIRE credit for a HS team's success.
