PitcherDad Posted October 6, 2010 Report Posted October 6, 2010 Great job BC! Keep the pressure on and have fun doin' it !
Let’sGetAlong Posted October 8, 2010 Report Posted October 8, 2010 Nice to see those local teams there. BC is a good team but not sure if they could hang with Tarkington. Tarkington should be on that list. What happened to Barbers Hill...they were ranked about 5th earlier this year.
bcsportsdad Posted October 9, 2010 Report Posted October 9, 2010 Well Tarkington didnt make it ,so just be happy for the teams that did.
East TX Posted October 10, 2010 Report Posted October 10, 2010 I don't think they are interested in what's happening in 22-3A......too interested in 5 more games in 21-3A, at present.
BrenhamFan Posted October 10, 2010 Report Posted October 10, 2010 :o #3, #9, #10 & #15, are all from 17-4A...

[/quote]These rankings don't necessarily reflect the true reality of how good teams are. The only ones I would place any stock in are maybe the first 3 spots. Its about who the coaches or admins know to get their teams ranked (mostly). The only rankings that matter happen at the end of the season, when the state championships are done.
aTmfan06 Posted October 11, 2010 Report Posted October 11, 2010 Yea Kingwood Park is really really good and I dont think they are even on the top 25??

I agree with most of 17-4A being on it. But, Brenham has already beat the #9 and #10 and has had two close matches with the #3. Brenham is far better than than 15th and PNG is not even close to that level of play!!!! K-PARKED..... PNG earlier in the season.... The sad fact is that the top 6 teams in 17-4a would give the top teams in 18-4A, 19-4A, & 20-4A a run for the district championship. Magnolia, Brenham, Stratford would win without question.
vbsportsfan Posted October 14, 2010 Report Posted October 14, 2010 I agree...and believe that most coaches aren't even aware of these rankings until the news shows up!!! Regardless, it should be viewed as a complement and an honor to the school & communities that receive this honor!!! COngrats to all! :)
WhatHappened? Posted October 20, 2010 Report Posted October 20, 2010 It looks like someone made their own website and just put teams they know. Yes, they have a lot of good teams down but not the best. K-Park should definitely be top 10. Those girls know how to play. Where is Ozen? if PN-G is 16... Bad job ranking these teams whoever it was.

mactiger Posted October 20, 2010 Report Posted October 20, 2010 The rankings are done by one man receiving emails from parents and coaches. He does the best he can with the information he receives.
WhatHappened? Posted October 20, 2010 Report Posted October 20, 2010 I have nothing against the man and I appreciate the hard work he has done putting it together. Just needs to research a little more and show correct data. BH starting at #6 in the state before the season and supposedly not in top #25 now and them beating friendswood 2 out of 3 times they played in preseason. A long with Dickinson who isn't even on it. Just not impressed by the rankings but i am impressed by the effort.

At 15 posts, its got a chance to be the most commented thread on volleyball board in quite some time ::). Besides, rankings will mean nothing in just a few weeks and we will see just how strong or weak the local districts are.

Not even close to a real ranking list. Pretty bad in my eyes
vbsportsfan Posted October 22, 2010 Report Posted October 22, 2010 I understand that you may not agree with the rankings and/or they are not how YOU would have done them. However, remember that kids DO read this site, and if their team IS on the list, you are not showing your support for them. There are some teams missing (I agree), but you still should be praising the teams that DID make the list---let them be proud for a bit!!

[/quote]I think you should praise your team but lets be real here. 20 4A is a little down this year talent wise and by the way when was the last time a 20 4A team made it to the state tournament? Better yet when was the last time a team from the golden triangle made it to the state tournament? LCM was district champs last year. This year they probably won't make the playoffs and they beat the top 4 teams in 21 3A. No team in the golden triangle should be ranked. That is real...............
vbsportsfan Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 Let me guess....none of YOUR teams are ranked are they???!!!!!!! :'(
vbsportsfan Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 And, you're questioning ranked teams & their likelihood of making it to the state tournament???? Well, when did the state tournament start involving 25 teams???!!! The rankings are of the top 25---not the top 4!!! And, by the way, MAKING IT TO THE PLAYOFFS & losing the first round is ALWAYS better than NOT EVEN making the playoffs.....that's not rocket science!

Just answer the question, when was the last time a golden triangle team went to the state tournament? I don't have a team. I am realistic are you? Like I said before, No team should be ranked in this area. Ranking are nothing, but human beings making an educated guess.

Lets see, 3 teams make in 3A and 4 in 4A. Making the playoffs is a joke. Just like the all district picks. Hey lets water it down and let everyone participate.
Guest bleed orange Posted October 23, 2010 Report Posted October 23, 2010 I hope I am wrong vbsportsfan. If I am I will admit I am wrong. Lets see what happens.
