The reasons to completely ignore high school stats should be self evident. Unless a guy is playing against the best college competition, which would equate to somewhere around High A in the pros, college stats can be ignored too. Most guys on college squads are not pro prospects so it's hard to judge pro potential against that competition. If you're good enough to play for a college team in a good D1 conference you can hold your own in the low minors, but that's about it as far as potential is concerned. Only the best of the best get drafted, and that's a small percentage of guys.
