Welcome to the HoopSeen.com Podcast. This week we dive into national high school basketball team rankings with Jason Hickman of MaxPreps.com. Jason is the national basketball editor for the CBS Sports site and has the daunting task of ranking the top 25 high school basketball teams in America.

Today we'll talk about the current list on MaxPreps, how he comes up with his rankings, the debate of traditional high school program - if you want to call it that these days - versus schools like Prime Prep, Profilic Prep and schools that focus on basketball first and much more.
