Despite what many people believe, extreme competition for
the best talent has led college programs to evaluate players at a much early
age. As an example, according to his father, Sonny Johnson Jr., an 8th
grade PG from Garfield Heights, OH., received his first division I college
basketball scholarship offer from Youngstown State this week.
Johnson has been a Buckeye Prep Elite Showcase standout
since he started attending our events when he was in the 4th
grade. In addition, Johnson has built a substantial
national reputation as one o the top points guards in the country in the class
of 2022. Congratulations to Sonny and
his family for this significant accomplishment!
Colleges aren't even allowed to talk to kids in the 8th grade let alone offer them a scholarship.
