FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Ca. – The first-ever PrepHoops So-Cal Top 250 Expo is on tap for Sept. 17 at Fountain Valley High.

It’s a marvelous opportunity for high school players – be they freshmen, sophomores, juniors or seniors – to showcase their skills in front a multitude of those whose opinions are valued by coaching staffs across the spectrum (NCAA Division’s I, II and III, as well as NAIA and California and national community college competition) of college basketball programs.

Among those evaluators who will be on hand to watch the drills and games will be myself (Twitter @FrankieBur), Aaron Burgin (@FullTimeHoops1), Joel Francisco (@JoelFranHoops) and Devin Ugland (Dev_Ugland).

It should prove to be among the very best events of its kind in the West this fall.

Frank Burlison is a well-regarded basketball writer who was inducted into the U.S. Basketball Writers Association Hall of Fame in 2005. His opinions on the potential of high school and college players are widely respected and sought by college coaches and NBA scouts, personnel directors and general managers from coast to coast. Oh, yes – he can offer plenty of thoughts on movies, television and pop music. Yes, he can rank those, too. Hint: He’s a big The Godfather, Larry Sanders, The Wire and The Beatles loyalist.

Frank Burlison is one of the most knowledgeable basketball people in the business! His passion for the game puts him at the top of the list. There are very few people whose evaluation skills I trust like I do Frank’s!

I have been a fan of Frank Burlison’s skills as a talent evaluator for over twenty years. He stands out as one of the absolute best in the business.

I’ve known Frank for at least 35 years and have the utmost respect for his writing as well as his understanding of, and insight into, basketball. His ability to evaluate basketball prospects is almost impeccable. Most coaches and scouts watch a player and can tell you how good he is NOW. What separates Frank from the others is that he can watch the same player and tell you how good he can be two or three years down the line.
