Rivals follows the hype of athletes too much. Neither seem to take enough consideration into the talent of the opponents the athletes face and the talent of their own team and coaching. Of course most of you are going to think bryce is in the top 5 or 10, but come on. People of course tend to chear for the home state athletes. Especially when it's a state like Kansas that isn't exactly a top athletic state. So how about all of you idiots like Coach ask yourselves, am i maybe over rating bryce just because I'm a fan or is he acually one of the top 5 players in all of the United States. If you really do your research, and forget about where he is from for a second, you will come to relize that 14th is a fitting spot, and maybe even a somewhat generous ranking.

Each list is going to be different and might rank a guy they talk to personally higher. All these kids getting National attention should be honored,WE should be honored having kids like this here.As I said before ,all these groups will rate Bryce different.I know Bryce and Arthurs dad very well and we need to think of this ranking the way he told me to about my son.Rivals, scout, ESPN will come and go .Bryce is #1 to him and should be to us as a community thats all that counts.
