ESPN Rankings Updated

ESPN released their updated 2010 and 2011 rankings yesterday. I'm going to cheat a little bit to show more depth than the top 100. They do player evaluations beyond the top 100 for many more prospects and if you do the right kind of search you can view them in sequence, effectively seeing the order they rank kids well into the hundreds. This expanded rankings includes some prep school kids so they won't exactly match the rankings you see on their top 100, I'll look at the top 300 kids for 2010 and 150 on 2011 as there are still many not evaluated. I'm going to try to find all the kids from Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, and Kentucky that ESPN has ranked, give the approximated numerical order in bold and in parenthesis I'll include their Scouts.inc rating which goes from 70-100 for D1 prospects. Generally they rate 70-79 low D1, 80-89 mid major, and 90-100 high major. Kids they know about but don't evaluate enough get a 40 automatically. I'll include the ones on here rated 80 or higher and the school they committed to will also be in bold if they have committed. They have many more national scouts than Rivals or Scout and most of their contributors were coaches so it has a very different flavor than the Internet recruiting services.
