The rankings are closing in for the most part to begin Season #3 of The Challenge.
There is now only a gap of 24 in the rankings of the top 4 teams and #5 has almost
broken out of the bottom of D3 Bryant.
Nauds once again leads the pack with a recruiting class ranking of 20,a slight drop from
last seasons 14 but still quite good.His top recruit,which is the best of all our classes,
RB Espinoza comes in at 45.07.Espinoza is also a Four Star recruit.
More of Bridgewaters Best Of is the #20 Guess ranking,up 17 spots and a Roster Rating
of 51.43.Nice job Nauds.
Coming in second with the #27 ranked class are the Dips of F&M a major improvement from
their previous class that ranked #140.Top recruit RB Foreman rates 44.53 #2 in the Challenge.
The Dips also made a major jump in the Guess rankings with a #44 placement,an improvement
of 104.This class does not include any Four or Five Star players but does bring their Roster Ranking to
48.19.Careful, the Diplomats are coming!
The third ranked class is an uncharacteristic #41 by Reid and his Wiskey-Platte team.A major downward turn
from his 15 ranking that included 1 Five Star and 4 Four Star recruits from a season ago.No Stars in this class
that brings in solid ILB Galvan and his 42.87 rating.
Platte does rise to the top 25 in the Full Roster Rankings at #25 and a #2 Challenge Roster 50.96.
Even though you were better in the overall rankings,expected more from you Slid.
Stop the world I'm getting off.Caesari had the #73 class a #200 Guess ranking and no Sim signings.
All improvements after last seasons major lack of effort on the recruiting front.ILB Brown,while not a top recruit
starts his Freshman campaign with a rating of 39.72.
There is still a lot of room for improvement in the Valley.Lebanon remains at the bottom of the barrel with a Roster Rating of 44.12
almost 5 points behind it's closest competitor.What can we expect from the innovator of the 1-2-4 in the coming season?
Good things are happening in Egypt.
Mojo and the Stoners of Waynesburg are another example of the closing of the gap.
With major improvements in Recruiting(up 46 spots) and Roster Rankings(62 spots) the Boys from Iowa are feeling groovy about
their 73rd ranked class and Four Star recruit TE Reynolds (41.01).The main reason for the good vibes though would be the sudden
escalation of their roster to #40 in the Guess rankings and Roster rating of 49.21.
Major mojo happening at the far-out campus of Waynesburg.
Next season our rosters will be completely our fault Gentleman.
Lebanon,21 sims.12 are sophomores.
Bridgewater,14 sims.
F&M,16 sims.3 are JR.s but all will be gone.
Wiskey-Platte 9 sims.
Waynesburg 8 sims.
Next recruiting class still leaves a lot of room for improvement to all of our teams.
Good Luck all.
