Those coaches know what they are doing. They will be sending the unsigned high schoolers to the so cal show case and OKC will be rockin and rollin next year IMO.

The star pitcher in gold and last years #1 NFHS pitcher right now has one year of gold eligibility left.. but wont be eligible to be in the show case.. wonder where she will be?

If you aint beating her, you aint #1 imo.

How will so cal lay claim to the best if she is in OKC?

I agree there is a lot of fluidity. Lot's of meetings and details to take place.

As you have pointed out...there was less that 1.5 college playerss on teams at Gold last year. And there probably will be several college players in OKC again next year. But IMO the overall best teams will be sent to Premier based only on what the Organizers and Gold coaches are touting.

We will see.


From Premier Organizers:

A couple teams told me they will still send a team to Gold, the Cal teams are not going to do that and I think the others want to compete here with the best HS players they can bring. If Gold becomes completely overrun by college players maybe ASA will look ahead for a change and make Gold for college freshman and sophomores, make 23U for juniors and seniors, combine the tournaments and host that in OKC.
