We are a "selector" now.

And as such, all previously written material critical of polls is hereby to be ignored.

In all seriousness, we are humbly honored to be selected as a voting member of the “Blog Poll”. Our initial top 25 for 2007 is –

Dropped Out:

Now before anyone goes and gets their panties in a snit about the rankings above, know one thing very well –

I think preseason polls are a ridiculous exercise of pure folly.

How did I arrive at the above? Well, if you might recall some of my previous work, I have kept a running tally of the accumulated 4 years recruited talent of all Division I teams. The rankings here are merely a listing of those tallies in order from best to 25th.

Unlike the “real” polls, I plan on making my rankings reasonably “active”. If someone is playing well, and someone else is not – especially in the early season – look for the rankings to change. If you are a top rated team, you will need to play like it.

I am looking forward to participating in the Blog Poll, and seeing if (or when) criticism comes, I can take what I dish out.
