Naismith D2 Season 102 (Dynasty Rankings) Topic

I didn't have this ready for the beginning of the season, but here are the dynasty rankings for Naismith D2. Since we'll have a non-con tournament starting next season, I wanted to get this started as well.

This is the same ranking system I put together in Iba, based on what alblack used to do. Similar, not the same. This is based on the last 5 seasons only, weighted toward more recent seasons. It only takes into account post-season NT and PI success. Wins, RPI, CT wins, etc. do not factor into this.

Here are the dynasty rankings for season 102.

By the way, during the time I've put this up in Iba, the top of the board has never been all that tight. N Florida there has been very dominant over an extended period, so that makes sense. For the Naismith rankings at the top, they are razor thin for the first 3 teams, almost no separation.

Yeah Div, that's definitely the plan. With the non-con tournament starting next season, I should be able to update this dynasty ranking before every season starts. Already having some good coaches and conferences in Naismith, the hope is that the dynasty rankings and non-con tourney help us get a few more coaches and keep the world a little more active than it would have been. I thought it was cool as heck when alblack ran them, and the non-con tourneys were awesome (there were 3 of them at once in Iba at one time), so we might as well do those sorts of things in Naismith and make things a little more fun, a little more interesting.
