I agree, HSRatings.com (formerly CalPreps) is the pink elephant solution sitting in the room.  Come on KHSAA, do something!!

I think if the KHSAA does partner with a ratings system that it will be MaxPreps (even though it may not be the best).  Just because several other associations already do it and they will want a rating system that compiles all sports (even though RPI really only matters in football).  I also think that how the ratings are calculated should be public.

Hands down, not even close. Maxpreps doesn't hold a candle to HSRatings/Calpreps. It's not even up for debate.

Yet, another reason for HSRatings/CalPreps.

I say this having not looked on MaxPreps in years because of their being 'no contest' between the two, so for all I know they could be spot on with CalPreps.

Until we do something about our playoff, classification system, district's still being a thing instead of scheduling what suits your respective program(s) the best, etc? It won't matter what computer system is used.  

It'll continue to be a snooze fest starting mid regular season- 2nd round (give or take on both ends of the spectrum) far more than many are willing to admit.

Last week's scores, as yet, another example? 100 games were played. 

• 40 ENDED in RC's.
• 15 ENDED between 28-34 points. How many were actual RC's, but ended closer? Not sure. I'd be shocked if wasn't 7-8 of them at least, if not more or all.
• 11 ENDED in 21-27 points

.....annnnnd, those results in the masses/perecentage of all games played aren't the exception, but the rule.

I don’t think you can use a rating system that you have to pay for and has private calculation formula.  It just doesn’t sound right for the state organization to use the formula of a random guy from California, no matter how good it is.  While I think CalPreps is the best, it just doesn’t sound reasonable.

Bump.
