It might be time to break the rankings down a little further.  If not into D1 and D2, at least into "A" classifications. Maybe instead of a top ten, do a top five per "A" classification.

It seems like your rankings for the smaller schools are based more on "team accomplishments" and the bigger schools get ranked more in line with "who would win in a heads-up-match."

I can't really argue with your opinions, though... Good list.

Actually, if we had our preference, we would break it down further.  However, doing so would cause a bit of the problems simply because the number of the teams that we cover.

Take, for example, Class 6A.  We have in our coverage area only one 8 team district that we cover in that class.  Even with a top 5, we would have a team in our rankings that would guaranteed not to be in the playoffs.  To me, if you are not eligible for the playoffs, you should not garner mention in any ranking.  That would be an even bigger problem if we went to DI and DII.

I get what you’re saying. It just seems kinda unrealistic in current form. Maybe just split the bottom classifications where there are enough teams to make decent comparisons. 

There are years where bigger schools end up ranked behind teams that they’ve actually beaten on the field that year.  

Say you have a 4A team that finishes up 7-4 but ranked in 7th place... no biggie, but you can end up ranked behind teams that you spanked earlier in the year AND your losses were to bigger, tougher schools than the smaller schools ever faced. It happens. Or it used to happen, lol. 

These watered-down rankings are meaningless. 

There are 10+ classifications but we’re breaking our rankings down into just 3 groups. You guys do a lot of work to end up with a BS result. I think you guys could do a bit more work and end up with some reportable results. 

Just my opinion. Keep up the good work.

I don't have a problem with Jasper at #4 at all. They won't have a chance to prove otherwise until the West Orange game and if they win that one in Orange, they'll be deserving of the top spot. The schedule is pretty weak prior to that.

I wish that we could get a lamarque team similar to the ones that were so feared at one point. Talk about a good gauge it would be. Sadly though I don't think we will. Last year when I saw them on schedule I got excited. Then was disappointed when I found out they were at a really low point for their program and the game wasn't really competitive. 

Texas City, Dickinson and League City getting their talent I believe.

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
