I am always interested in those, but I don't think the rating system is very good. Some schools rank high just because they have a LOT of recruits.

I am impressed with MTSU though... Kermit is doing some work down there.

Yea I definitely agree with you. They seem to rank the schools based on how many recruits a school gets.

I also noticed that many of the juco's they rank are put up there pretty high, I guess b/c they have had more experience then the high school players. But if a team got a lot of juco players they will be ranked relatively high.

I just posted it because I too m interested in rankings drom all different sources.

Well, Kermit didn't have much choice. Outside of Tommy Gunn, he had very little scoring coming back. He picked a good year to have an outstanding class.
