The Dish: Kratz is a little bit of a mystery. The Pennsylvanian was absolutely on fire over the indoor season, racking up a state record in the 200m -- which he broke twice -- two state championships in the 60m and 200m and a national title in the 200m at New Balance Nationals Indoor. He wasn't recruited heavily before his dominant season, but things have certainly changed as of recent. Beyond Walton, Kratz likely has the most upside of anyone still left on the recruiting board. Another key contribution he could offer next fall is his experience indoors.
