Here are my choices for the 2015-16 Top 100 JC players in California.
There are 92 schools playing JC basketball in California this season, so there is a pretty strong level of competition. The most players any one school placed on the Top 100 list is 4 (Saddleback) and a number of schools have 3. Saddleback also leads in players on the two lists combined with 7. This is probably not real surprising if you've seen them play.
This is just my opinion, of course, but I normally see 60-70 games and 60-70 teams over the course of a season so I think it's a fairly well-informed one.
I consider factors such as production (statistics), team success & role, but occasionally an intangible factor comes in as well.
Players are listed by the position that they played most of the time at the JC level. Most players in California JCs play one position “larger” than they are likely to play at the 4-year level (since we have so many guards and not so many big men around here).
There is also an extensive Honorable Mention list, which includes the players I seriously considered for inclusion on the Top 100 List.
