    • The RPI is a simplistic, arbitrary rating system that ignores margin of victory, ignores quality of opponents, and has no “right” balance.  What is the proper weighting of a team’s winning percentage, its opponents’ winning percentage, and its opponents’ opponents’ winning percentage?  25-50-25?  40-40-20?  Your “right” balance is likely different than someone else’s “right” balance, and there is no statistically valid method of assigning weights to those 3 variables; it is totally arbitrary.  And basic algebra demonstrates that one can get different results by changing the weighting of the variables when presented with the same data.  I am no fan of MaxPreps rankings, but the RPI is not the answer.  The one advantage the RPI has over MaxPreps is transparency, but that hardly makes up for its deficiencies
    • Hard to believe, but true.  I never thought they would compete for a championship this year but did expect much better performance with everything that has been provided to that staff.   I had my doubts about Napier early on as when he was recruiting our school he was focused on the wrong one of our 2 D1 defensive lineman in 2022.  It made no sense as it showed his poor judgement in evaluating talent, a key to top coaches that don't simply rely on rankings by so-called experts.

    • The fhsaa is basically just doing what the people in Tallahassee want at this point but I agree that I wish someone would make a new league and push the middle man out of the way
