Trail, where are you on the projection report in your world? Will you make the NT this season? The Team scores are not really intended to be used as a projection report, but they do relate to each other. Your rpi and sos are not bad, looks like you compete against some good coaches. I see you run the motion/M2M sets, that helps me. Game planning ability is not considered for the rankings, it's meant as a score assigned to a "team with no coach" so to speak. If your team is doing better than the score suggests, it may come as a compliment to your skill. It may also mean the rankings are not perfect, or it may mean both :) I looked at your team and if it were a Rupp team, it looks like a 70-80 range team to me. Does that sound about right? I wish I played in Wooden, I don't know if the competition is easier or tougher in that world.
I would think DEF is a more important rating than BLK at every position and in every set. Tarvolon mentioned he's heard it's more important in a zone. I've never run the zone, myself. I'm going to begin monitoring just how blocking seems to affect player performance from here on. Recently, I had a discussion with two of the greats about that very topic. I'll also consider lowering the affect IQs have on player performance. The reason the IQ have as much weight as they do is because from what I have seen, a team with lower IQs never wins the championship, while teams with high IQ (even if the team doesn't have incredible ratings) have. After reaching an A-, IQ is not weighted as heavily. Thank you very much, trail, you've given me a lot to think about here.
What did you think of the rest of the website? Any suggestions for me?
