Anyone have access to Hollinger college stats thing? I know he used to rate all the college players before the draft, but maybe they’re only doing that for insiders now.

Top 12-Rated Collegians For 2009
Player School Draft Rater
1. Ty Lawson North Carolina 16.34
2. Blake Griffin Oklahoma 16.21
3. Tyreke Evans Memphis 15.02
4. Austin Daye Gonzaga 14.24
5. Stephen Curry Davidson 14.18
6. Nick Calathes Florida 13.66
7. DeJuan Blair Pittsburgh 13.56
8. Danny Green North Carolina 13.28
9. Jonny Flynn Syracuse 12.99
10. James Harden Arizona State 12.97
11. Hasheem Thabeet Connecticut 12.90
12. Earl Clark Louisville 12.88

For starters, let’s talk about two of the players who play multiple positions — this matters now that we’re rating players in part based on position.

Stephen Curry graded out at 14.18 as a wing, but only 12.86 as a point guard. Either way, it puts him in the top dozen players, but by this rating, he’s a much better prospect if he’s able to defend against wings.

The difference for Earl Clark was less dramatic, but he rated slightly better as a wing than as a big man (12.14), which would have dropped him from 12th to 15th.

A couple of other names on here are likely to raise eyebrows:

Austin Daye may not have had a great season, but the Draft Rater looks favorably upon a 6-foot-11 small forward who can shoot (assuming he can play the 3 in the NBA). His numbers were strongest in the categories that project best to the pros, including 42.9 percent on 3s and 2.1 blocks per game, which is why he moves all the way up to No. 4 on this list.

Nick Calathes is under contract in Greece but still will be draft-eligible, and he rates higher than the hot point guards most teams are discussing in the top 15. Though he has been knocked for his athleticism, he had high rates of rebounds and steals and a strong 2-point shooting percentage. Teams in luxury tax trouble should look particularly hard at him because he can be stashed in Europe for a year or so.

Danny Green is the other surprise on this list. He’s rated highly every year I’ve done this, so seeing his name doesn’t shock me anymore, but he has received little attention nationally. Still, he’s a great shooter who can defend and he rates as the third-best wing after Daye and Tyreke Evans.
