This year will be another great Mc'Donalds All American game. With great players like Brandon Knight, Harrison Barnes, and who can forget about Josh Selby this will be fun to watch, but there are some deserving players who didn't make it.

Will Barton out of Baltimore is not on the team which is a surprise. He is one of the best shooting guards in the country if not the best and will most likely be a big impact next year.

Tony Mitchell at #16 also didn't make it. He is one of the best in the country and outstanding athlete. He can also handle the ball well. Missouri will love this kid.

Adreian Payne is also a big surprise to me. I would've thought he made it. It's in his home state and he the second best player they have. He's a nice shot blocker and rebounder. He needs to add wieght but will be good at the nenext level.

How do you feel About The Teams?

Illegal workouts for big-name college coaches ... secret videotapes made by former state troopers turned undercover private investigators (we've got it below) ... complaints about illegal recruiting from a former NBA player with a checkered past ... fiery speeches, threats of lawsuits and name-calling that includes the use of "fascist" and "terrorist" ... all in the name of high school basketball.

As expected, Elizabeth (N.J.) St. Patrick was officially banned from this year's New Jersey state basketball tournament and put on two years probation Friday by its state association.

Kyrie Irving will not get to defend the Tournament of Champions title.
Head coach Kevin Boyle, found guilty of holding illegal preseason workouts - so his players could be seen by college coaches - was suspended for three games.

Both decisions were handed down by the Executive Committee of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association in a meeting in Robbinsville, N.J.

The action, however, is just getting going. What happens next is a bit murky.

Boyle will be allowed to coach this weekend when his team, No. 14 in the latest RivalsHigh Hoops 100, meets No. 11 Mouth of River (Va.) Oak Hill on Friday (a 79-78 loss) and No. 23 New York (N.Y.) Rice on Saturday in the Prime Time shootout.

Boyle's suspension will begin next week. He may, in fact, be able to return in time for the final of the school's county tournament - a big deal in New Jersey. Having to give the sanctioned Boyle and his team the trophy is a possibility county officials already are fearing.

St. Patrick, however, will not be able to compete in the ESPN national tournament since it is not in good standing with the NJSIAA.

"Before we will even approach a school we have to know that the state association or the governing body will allow them to play in the games," ESPN spokesman Crystal Howard said. "If they don't say that schools in their governance could play in our games, we won't even consider going against those rulings and actually select or invite."

And St. Patrick principal Joe Picaro said the school has no intention of leaving the NJSIAA and becoming an independent, joining the likes of Oak Hill and nearby Newark (N.J.) St. Benedict's Prep, No. 5 in the latest RivalsHigh poll.
