Another great class seems to be coming together with this years' crop of freshmen. The 2012 class has plenty of national-level talent, including players who have already garnered high-major D1 scholarship offers as ninth graders. The player that holds the top spot has recently been ranked the 13th best freshman in America by ESPN.com and Scouts, Inc. P-Hoops will provide a top 25 list followed by a 2012 Watch List.

Patrick Ingram- North Central played varsity all year.
Jared Drew- Lawrence Central
big part of a freshman team that only lost 1 game and won frosh county
Mitch Yeagy- Alexandria played/started varsity all year
I see you have Jared, my bad.
BIG MISS. You missed Jodan Price at Lawrence Central 6'5" and long. He played JV and some varsity. Should really be in your top 25. Already in double figures for his AAU team in scoring/rebounds. Can handle the ball. Played ahead of some of the players on you list.
Jdan price is deserving!!!!! He is 6'5 and can handle the BALL and SHOOT!!!!!!!!!!.....What a PACKAGE!!WOW
i don't know where yeagy disappeared to. had him in my top 25 and while shifting some kids, i must have left him off accidentally.
i knew there was one NC kid i was forgetting.
i'll also add Price to the watch list. the LC frosh crop is legit. let's hope they stay bears.
Thomas Treadway (2012) played Middle School ball with Zionsville, but is now at Cathedral.
Thanks for taking the time to do all this. It's nice to see Ben Davis represented.

Some of my Indiana Elite teammates need to be on here: Trae Washington, JT Yoho, Dylan Alvis and Micheal Bower. Washington and Bower played for Bloomington South Freshman team. Alvis played varsity all year for Shelbyville. Yoho started at the point for Eastern Greene.
Jodan Price is a good player. James Knapke is already getting D1 looks from his JV games. He just did not get enough time on Luers Varsity with all of the starters. Better playing JV than sitting on the Varsity.
Meant to say - "returning " starters.
some one from decatur central should be on the watch list atleast. His name is Robert jackson, aaron montgomery, caleb eubanks, lee gray, and donta manuel they put up good numbers on freshman team. They played hard all season and moved up to jv. They should atleats be on the watch list a concerned fan.
After the perfomance Michael Bower had against your team are you ready to move him to your top 20.
D. Marrero and R. Davis should be ahead of Patterson. You can't put athleticism, which all three have, ahead of real game, which two have
ive watched pat ingram play during the summer and the school year for north central and the kid is a stud and hes not on here.. definatly try and look into him...
Jared Drew has one of the biggest upside out there in the 2012 class. His perimeter game has shot up and his ball handling has greatly improved...and he's still growing! He will be a very dangerous wing as his game elevates ..LC looks nice.
hate runs deep for patterson on these posts!! what happened? does seeing his name make your tummy ache?!?!?!
Thomas Treadway is a Freshman at Zionsville HS. Watched him play at the Lebon James tourney. Thomas and Trey Hendrix from Lebanon are a deadly combination. The treadway kid averaged 15 points a game at Lebron. This speice team is fun to watch. A very well coached team!
Treadway kid has a lot of upside. 6'4 quick, agile, handles the ball and still growing. Saw him play at southport where his team won. Heard they played well at Lebron tourney. Coach Busiak at Zionsville is going to have fun with this kid.
I have seen your rankings and everyone is missing the best point guard int he state of Indiana. He is 5'8 but is a student of the game and handles himself verywell. He averaged 14.2 points per game and5 to 6 assists a game with 0nly three to four t.o. per game. He started as a freshman for Lebanon HIgh school and played in the King James tournament this past weekend. Ask the Pitt caveman coach about this point guard and his abilities he witnessed it first hand. He is not a kid who seeks out these rankings, he just plays the game and plays it well. You guys are missing a really nice young man here. I' ve seen Kellen Thomas play and Kevin Farrell play both good palyers but this one is the real deal. You should check inhto him.
Glenn Robinson Jr. any opinios on him? I just played against him the other day and didn't seem to special but that was just one game and that kid from North Judson is legit even though he comes from a small school
Very unassuming...Caleb Eubanks from DC is a good player. He killed us when we faced him in school ball and averaged a double double- scoring/asst. I saw him play again this weekend at the fieldhouse for Indy Elite Jazz in the championship game. Great shooter. Team Player. Shutdown defender. Very athletic kid with freakish speed and at least a 40" vertical. His dad needs to tansfer him away from DC!
Brandon Ledford...is 2011
Dawson Gore from Eminece played varsity all year
Anonymous,
You guys are really slipping on Patrick Ingram! That kid is awesome and very strong! Get with the program! Doug Mitchell doesn't even know what he has in that kid!
Theres this Guard named Jordan Reagan from Brownsburg hes about 6'1 6'2, has very quick feet on defense and can take the rock to the basket, he has tremendous passing and has an open eye on the whole court. And hes having a great AAU season so far.
you should deff look into this athlete.
I think there should be this point guard ive seen in lebron tourney this year from indiana also named cedric carter he should be on the watch list at least he around 5 6 he's a real fast guard who is also strong stocky like ive heard people call u d rose
http://indianaprephoops.blogspot.com
OMG why hasnt anybody heard of this kid.....Samuel (Chip) Ursery he cant find an aau team and his school Pike High School snubbed him because he had pneumonia. I have seen this kid work out at the Westview Healthplex and he is a very dedicated kid. He is kinda small because he skipped a grade and is supposed to be in the Class of 2013 but 5'8" isn't that bad. Try to catch him working out up there over the summer great ball player very fundamental. Just watch you will see his name somewhere sooner or later
Roncalli high school has two 6'5" studs in the class of 2012 might want to look into them. Heckman and Weber.
Tindley high school has a 6' 2" pointguard in the class of 2011. His basketball IQ is amazing. Although he is junior-to-be, he is only 15 years old and does not even turn 16 until 2010. He played for Spiece Next Level and should be considered as a top guard in Indiana.
Kendall Waters averaged twelve points and six assist a game in high school. He was also all conference and all county. He also had 22 and seven on mitch yeagy.
I think Glenn Robinson Jr. should be on your top 25 he's about 6'5'' now, and can shoot, dribble, and is one of the best rebounders when he wants to be. You better gaurd him or hell take you to the hoop or shoot right over you, he dosent have all of his dad's height but is still growing, he has a bout 10 D1 schools looking at him and I look foward to seeing him progress, and having a very good season this year as a freshmen at Lake Central.
Sorry i meant Glenn Robinson Jr. is going to be a sophomore this year at Lake Central
Dylan Alvis- Shelbyville is getting D1 intrest from 6 schools, this kid can play.
hey this kid from decatur central name donta manuel i seen him play and has game check him out please. hes on jv but is a great player.
Watch for Darren Montgomery this year. He's playing varsity at Arlington and has really helped them to their 2 consectutive victories. He's about 6'1, one of the best shooters I've seen. Good passing and ball handling. He really should be in the top 20. He's one of the smartest players on the court and he's only a sophomore. Put Darren in the rankings
Also watch out for Tyler Fischl. He goes to Lawrence Central High School. Although Jared Drew, Jeremy Hollewell and Tyler Corley are their premier sophomores, Tyler Fischl is right there with them. He is 6'4. Great Slasher and can finish at the bucket. He's quick for his size and can shoot. And he has extreme jumping ablility. Watch this guy because him and his older brother Darren Montgomery(Arlington High School) are going to sprout up into the rankings at the beginning of the summer. Be watching these guys. Darren's next game is on the 30th against Anderson Highland and Tyler's next game is versus Columbus North on Jan.8th.
Glenn Robinson jr...should def be on the list he has so much talent..and whn he finnaly steps out of his shell he will be a big package in posting up and shooting the three!
Gary Harris is the complete package. Great ball handler, can stop on a dime, and offers shut down defense. Not to mention his ability to flush the ball! Easily one of the best in the state
I know decatur isn't that good but I've seen both jv and varsity. Jv has some good nice looking players in their game like donta manuel he plays hard and has great defense and caleb eubanks great team player and shawn heart don't know where his name came from but is a good player still need work in his game still. Check them out please and varsity brandon ledford can get into the lane takes it up strong. Davelle coleman good big man. So check these kids out please.
An unknown kid but yet very very talented is Danny Mulvaney. He is about 6' 6" and still growingin ches. Pretty good ball handling and can shoot the lights out from behind the arc. Played some frosh and jv at Brownsburg then transferred to bethesda. He was killing this year for bethesda. Also George Wion. Started every game and is 6' 5" african from liberia.. has only played two years but still learning and getting better every game. He and danny are playing on trey hendix' Spiece aau team this summer. watch out for this 1A duo.
Zach Richie from Oregon-Davis is deserving, not a huge school, but they play good competition, this kid is 6' and averaging over 18 ppg and is just a good all around ball player, deserving!!!!
Who knows what AAU team donta manuel plays on this kid is unknown and if he was good then he would be known so I don't think he is all that. I mean freshamn year for this kid he barely played freshman team they were led by caleb eubanks and lee gray. Lee gray is the real talent and I heard from obe that he will be one of the star players next year donta manuel who. I mean don't get me wrong jv season he did his thing but defently not a division 1. Thing.
yea you are right donta manuel is not good, but you are right that he did do his thing jv season and fresham season he didn't play but he plays on a new team called panthers who play on a thursday night league in the fisher fieldhouse and donta is trying, he may not be a division 1 athelet but maybe division 2. he's trying hard to improve and. Lee gray is good and a great player at that but you have to give donta a chance he is trying. and caleb eubanks is good too.
This summer for high school summer ball workouts decatur central is doing there thing. For jv team there led by 3 kids jimmy lee a sophmore and steven pearson a junior and donta manuel a junior. Donta manuel played good at ISU the past weekend and had a good weekend. These 3 kids also played some varsity all summer and are becoming great players. Jimmy lee can shoot good and steven pearson can shoot. So these 3 are the ones to look at on jv and like I said they play varsity too.
Darren Montgomery is TERRIBLE!!!!!!
