re: Is it possible to be an elite high school basketball player.......

Apex would work. He'd fit in at Southeast (I wanna say he was even districted there), but probably wouldn't have gotten the guidance he needed. The best coach for him would've been Coach Rob at Leesville though, he helped Anthony Richardson (another uber talented kid with attitude problems) mature before he crashed and burned at FSU. I'm obviously biased though since I played for him and was friends with his son.
