USAT is the oldest. Not the best by any stretch. 

Never said it was. No poll is any better than the other. All have its plus and minuses

In the 4-major preseason polls, MC is ranked between 5-15.

2	IMG	SJB	BG	IMG
3	SJB	SFA	SJB	SJB

12	DV	COL	CT	SJP
13	GC	ED	NS	DS
14	DF	CM	LH	SKY
15	LH	THOM	CEN	MC

USAT is still not out yet. That's the granddaddy of them all. 

I also believe that espn, SB live, and Blue Star will be coming out with polls too.

Fact: MC would not be in any MNC discussion this season if it were not for the BG game. 

That has nothing to do with the kid transferring to MC. Stay on topic!

So what you think about the whole mess?

Being from down in the 305, you know this transfer thing is a crazy and sometimes dirty game. These kids want to win now, and the parents are just as bad as the kids. For this kids to transfer to a team that already has at least 3 other RB's and a rival school, someone was in his parents ears. That whole thing about playing OOS games is just Joe's way of trying boost his agenda. Even if Central didn't play one OOS game this season, the fact that they are on top in SoFlo would have still been enough. These kids are different now.

The BG game is one of the Top 5 Games of the Year in HSFB. Until MNW starts scheduling elite OOS competition like they used to, they’ll never be able to keep top ballers in-house. Gotta take these exotic trips to keep up with the Joneses. 

OOS games has nothing to do with it. SMH

You can throw in all the GA stuff you want. But you know what they did.

West coast bias

just like maxpreps to put a new kid as the cover kid for a team with plenty kids who balled in the uniform already 

From California at that!

If that's the case, they need to start scheduling elite OOS competition like MC does. Not holding my breath. 

Bro stop it!

Go through last season's final polls and count how many Top 20 teams DID NOT play at least one OOS competitor. All of us posters are in sync in this respect. 

I guess...😕

Just now, GardenStateBaller said:

If you want to be nationally-ranked, you must play a national schedule. Simple. 

Not necessarily true.

None of those in-state teams finished in Florida's Top 10 last season. 

#2 IMG is playing SJP and SFA

#6 MC is playing BG

#7 C-M is playing SFA and BC

#8 STA is playing SJB

#17 AHP is playing SJC 

Every major pollster has acknowledged that elite OOS games are part of their ranking formulas and equations. Hopefully, Columbus will learn from this mistake in 2024 and beyond. 

Food for thought: if Columbus is sooo loaded this season, why didn't they schedule an elite OOS team? 

Stop that!

they in state schedule tougher then most oos schedule.. have you seen it? CAI, JESUIT, NW, HOMESTEAD, PALMETTO, Prolly central too in the gmac. Get serious brother, sjc got smashed by chaminade. they been nobodies since rakeem jarrett. That game holds no weight amongst the heavy weights. MV will probably get smashed & i hope you learn your lesson.

Well said.

4. IMG 
5. Central

We'll see soon enough when MV plays at SJC on 9/23. By that time Columbus would have played CAI, Tampa Jesuit and MNW. Having no OOS games on its schedule won't help their cause in the end. 

Oh lord...here you go again with that OOS talk...🤦🏽‍♂️

Last five teams in (alpha order): Carrollton GA, DeSoto TX, Mission Viejo CA, North Shore TX, St Edward OH

Last two out: Columbus FL, Gainesville GA

Columbus should be in over Mission Viejo, CA

MD should be the preseason #1 team in every major poll that matters. Unless they lose, it's gonna be tough to jump them. 

I agree.

Even if all those things play out, there's still the west coast bias aspect. 

9 hours ago, GardenStateBaller said:

They now have five (5) Top 100 players. Only IMG has more at this time with 7. They absolutely can be considered one of the top public programs at this time. 

I think I read somewhere ESPN is coming back out with a top 25 this year. Is there any truth to that?

You're in denial. It's an unfortunate epidemic! 

I'm not in denial of anything. Everyone doesn't have "private" money. I know this is your site, but you tend to let your emotions get the best of you when posting comments. Sometimes it's very unprofessional and will make it hard for you to be respected. It's not always about flashing a few hundreds or thousands of dollars. Character plays a huge role.
