If you want to move up in the Eurosport rankings play (and lose to) Soddy Daisy. Soddy beat ND and Cleveland and both of those teams moved up. Riverdale beat Soddy in a close match and moved down.

 

 

You have just given me insight to figure Eurosport out. It is a weighted average. Weighted by the coaches that respond and they don't go out of their way to get facts beyond the teams with which they are familiar. The better they know a team, the better the rank they get. Think?

Euro's rankings, moves up or down, etc. aren't supposed to make sense. Think of it as the federal governement, and it will all make more sense....

Hold on now, H2odog... this might be the truth with some of the coaches, but I, for one, spend a WHOLE lot of time doing research, reading articles, and reading up on scores across the state before I submit my "top 10". I might be the only one who does this, but please give some coaches the benefit of the doubt. I don't think ANYONE has found an accurate way to rank teams (does the NSCAA yet?!?) but besides MJUHB, this is the only other one we have.

 

Not trying to start anything with you, H2o, just wanted to let you know that there are some coaches that put a lot of thought into it.

 

MVM, the sad thing is, that the more I study the rankings, the more I am starting to join in your camp (I just DON'T get some of the placements...). Now, I usually only study the A/AA, but has anyone researched if one division has a more accurate ranking than another (AAA being better than A/AA?) Just curious.

Never thought about stepping on your toes. Sometimes, I forget to put the /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" /> in some of my comments. It was meant to be "tongue in cheek". BUT, it is obvious something is causing the rankings to be out of whack. Now when BBB and CCC look so close to all of us, it's hard to a argue which is a definitive #1 or #2. But Baylor #5, is either an entry error or a regional bias. Which is my last point. I know they won't tell us who the voters are, but I would hope there is equal representation across the state. In fact Captain G, I put you number 2 to Master MJ, because you are the most fairest in the kingdom.

Oh yeah:::::::::: /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

I am flattered (or disturbed)... depends on how you used "fairest" in the context.

"G" You stated that you only study the A/AA, but I know you keep up with all 3 divisions, but for argument sake lets stick with A/AA for now. I must admit I don't keep up with A/AA so any help from other posters would be appreciated.

 

Now, reading posts from other posters we have all agreed (for the most part) that MJ is the master of rankings. So lets compare MJ's rankings to Euro's.

 

EURO'S Ranking...........................MJ'S Ranking

1 Notre Dame 4-1-0 ..................1

2 Franklin Road Acad. 6-1-1........3

3 Chatt. Christian 4-0-1 .............4

4 CAK 5-1-1 .............................2

5 CPA 0-4-2 .............................10

6 Knox Catholic 4-2-2................6

7 USJ 4-1-0 ..............................5

8 David Lipscomb 3-2-1.............16

9 Jackson Christian 3-1-0...........9

10 Hume-Fogg 1-0-2..................18

11 Page 5-1-0 ...........................19

11 Goodpasture Christian 0-1-0 ...Can't find this team in MJ'S Poll???

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
