Each spring and fall we publish our own SoCalHoops lists of the "Best of the Best. . . " In our own lists we identify players but don't assign numerical rankings. But just about everyone else who follows college recruiting does, including Clark Francis at the HoopScoop. Clark's been ranking and rating college prospects for more than 20 years. Over the last few years, he's had an assist from Dinos Trigonis when it comes to ranking California players, and once again, they've compiled rankings for the entire State of California. You can see their overall rankings by clicking on the "Composite State List" links above, or even better, you can get a subscription to the Hoop Scoop, and check out all of their statewide reports to see how the California players stack up against the rest of the country. We've broken down HoopScoop's lists of California players, separating them by position so that we can see which players HoopScoop likes at each position, and their overall ranking within the region at that position.
