SJP, MC and CQ are unranked by Massey. Yet they have NS at #3. Travesty.

??? Neither have SJP and CQ.

DV is the only team in the T5 with a SOS less than 34.0. Their opponents combined record of 8-15 is also the worst.

The season is not over!

DV would be unbeaten today with the bogus schedule IMG is playing!

We'll never know since DV is no longer hosting reputable OOS teams.

Raise your hand if you had a hand in 50% of their schedule!

6.25% was my part. I recommended Miami Central. They chose Rockledge instead.

Did you give them the option of Rockledge?

 

Math isn't hard.  They are in a 9 team district, so play 8 district games, leaving only two non-district games for them to to schedule. 

 

One was SOC and the other was Rockledge.  One game of two is 50%.

I always provide any and all options to my clients. The vast majority of them always choose the best possible opponent/oppty. Not the worst. Live and learn.

I'll take that as a raised hand.  Have you shared your feedback, #nocowardsallowed/etc. with the Duncanville staff?

Of course! By scheduling Rockledge instead of Miami Central they missed out on two opptys:

1. The oppty to save $2,500 in travel stipend funding by scheduling MC rather than Rockledge, and 

2. The Rockledge game would not be streamed to a national audience due to the lesser quality of game

In the end DV chose to pay out more $$ plus not have the game broadcast nationally vs. to host a more competitive MC.

Except the NFHS network did stream the game between Rockledge and DV.  Is there difference?

Yes, with Flo the host school receives 100% of the proceeds. With NFHS, the UIL gets it all and none of it trickles down to either of the teams playing.

What kind of $ are we talking about that the school would get?

$6,000 for a game such as DV/MC.

Thanks!

 

So this cost Duncanville ~$2,500 in outlay (Rockledge travel expenses) and a potential income loss of ~$6,000, correct?

DV paid Rockledge a $12,500 travel stipend and received no streaming rights fees in return. Total outlay of $12,500. 

If DV would have hosted MC, the Rockets would've been paid a travel stipend of 10,000 ($6,000 of which would've been underwritten by PGL in the form of streaming rights fees). Total outlay of $4,000. 

So the guaranteed win vs an inferior team cost DV an extra $8,500.

DV would have a much tougher time with IMG’s schedule than you might think, but would be undefeated. Although SJP would be 50/50 if the game was played in Philly (of course, we all know a TX power would never travel out-of-state to take on another national power).

Not this DV team.  It seems you guys are failing to see how much better this team is this year.  

I honestly believe this particular DV team is better than this IMG.  Yes. I believe this IMG has been overrated this year.  Everyone is ranking on name not how they are playing.

The IMG vs SJP - you know what happened at the end of the game.  There was bigger probability of that game going 24-0 - than the blunders that lead to two non offensive TD and the 17-14 final.
