Leslie McDonald at No.55 and Farrakhon Hall not even ranked no
more. Hoopers will make another prediction with alot of
validity, Buckner have a monster high school season he will
definitely be a McDonald's All-American. If this one doesn't
happen it will be a close one and you can at least say, "I
made a run at it".
One more thing with
Leslie McDonald's history on the circuit, he definitely has a

Note for Parents:
It is called sacrificing
and if parents don't want to sacrifice but do nothing but
criticize. Let me tell all parents something, college
scholarships do not fall from the sky. A college coach will not
answer your phone in a heartbeat even though you just talked to
him the day before of even made a visit to the respected school
the past weekend, I have seen it all.
Whoppeee
Just because you receive literature in the mail, believe me
another couple hundred kids got the same letter. It is
frustrating when you have negative parents where the Hoopers
staff is diligently trying to get all the kids that are in the
program into a school. Hoopers record speaks for itself whole
heartily. Over 140 kids have gone on to receive college
scholarships in the Hoopers organization. Last year alone
