It seems like you glossed over some important aspects of your experiment. For instance, how LIKELY is it that a European team would be interested in an American high-school player? Also, how LIKELY is it that a kid perhaps not smart enough to get into a major college will adjust to living on his own in a country where he doesn't even speak the language? How many of them will actually tough it out?

People talk about the "danger" to the game of a mass exodus of talented high-school ballers to Europe. But how LIKELY is that to happen? Has anyone ever done it? How many have tried and failed?
