I've implemented a couple of the recently asked-for features, and before I roll them out "for real" I wanted to give everyone a chance to test-drive it and see if there's anything broken.
* Added ability to change divisions without going back to the home screen
* Player and school rankings are now based on their best positional role rating.
* Top 25 lists have been expanded to include positional roles.

The only season that is using the current values is Warner 116. Take a look at the "regular" version (guess.gdreports.com) and compare the two to see how the new numbers make some differences.

Awesome work.
Like the drag down bar for top 25.
Ill give you more feedback after I play with it a little.

wow! great work bhazelwood!!

Absolutely love it.

The only tweak I would make is with the font size at the bottom. Not sure if you even have that capability, but D1AA and D3 won't show up unless I scroll right. NOT A BIG DEAL....just more of a preference than anything else.

Everything looks great. Thanks for all that you do...I'm going to go over and click ads.

Those are actually "pictures" - I can shrink them some.

I tweaked the look a bit, but the content is really what's more important to me here. Feedback (and suggestions) are always welcome, even if it's something I can't implement right away it gives me something to think about later.

Kudos Bob...Is there a chance we can all "Go fund Me" the purchase of Gridiron Dynasty and Put Mr. Hazlewood in charge?.

It looks good. Looks like the team ratings and recruit lists are showing accurately. The only thing thats throwing me off (maybe its just me) but when you go into the schools player list it still sorts the players by "primary rating".

So a running QB would still be listed by his passing ability like the following example (taken from Virginia Tech):
Quarterbacks Class Primary
Rating
Grade Running QB

Actually the top 25 recruit "passing QB" is pretty broke. I'm not sure if its trying the merge the two top 25s into one list but the ratings come out wacky.

http://beta.gdreports.com/player/top25_recruit?division=1&season=116&world=7

.. and running back .. and TE.. and probably more

I'm guessing the way you set it up is the primary position ranked by the positional roles in the top 25, but instead of pulling the positional role rating it just rated by the "primary"

Yeah, this page is going to take a bit more work to overhaul.

I'll have to look at the code to the top 25 lists. Thought I had that worked out.
2/21/2017 8:31 AM
Thank you, genuvar. This is exactly the kind of feedback I'm looking for.

Top 25 Lists fixed.

Full Roster listing modified. Players are now listed in order of best role rating. I renamed "Primary Rating" to "General (pos)" and removed the bold.

Recruit listing per team is now sorted n order of best role rating. Wondering out loud -- would it be better if this were sorted on Recruit Relative Value instead, showing how the recruit impacted the team's rating?

I haven't re-worked the "nerd report" to focus on best role rating. I have a feeling that will be quite a bit of work. Does anyone (besides maybe gt_deuce) look at that stuff?

Take a look at the Conference Rankings page, see what you think of that change.

Nice job, I really like it!
2/21/2017 12:16 PM
This look good sir, the nerd stuff is good too, just gives you more to digest and think about. Great work
