It’s the content that keeps me coming back to this site once football ends. With that said, I’m going throw my two cents into the discussion this week because I think you’ve got Marietta a bit low.

We’re only three spots ahead of a Federal Hocking team we handled yesterday, eleven spots behind a Meigs team we beat, and fifteen spots behind a Warren team we very nearly beat. I know it’s a bit trivial as we are sort of a fringe team on this site and won’t be one of the top teams in the elite 8 discussion, but outside of the New Philly blowout, we’ve really played pretty solid basketball. I’ve enjoyed watching this team play early on and hope to see them move up the rankings as the season continues. :)
… pioneer19 thank you for your input ! With all of the shuffling at the very top of the rankings sometimes in an effort to make sure that I get it right at the top end , I don’t double check the games played by every team - 71 in all - as the season goes on each week gets tougher and tougher as daniC brought up on another thread - parity comes into play … teams up and down the rankings are beating teams UP AND DOWN THE RANKINGS … who beat whom in week 1 when we are in week “ down the line” is tough … I’ll put an asterisk beside the Tigers on the big board and try to adjust as we go along …

This is always an informative thread. It's way too early to have major movement one way or another unless a team earns the movement, up or down, on the hard court. There were a lot of great match ups this past week and it left me wanting to see more. You just know those teams coming up short will come out firing on the rematch. January and Feb should be fun for the fans across the leagues.

... Teams have started sorting out the player combinations that work ... players are figuring out their roles , young players are now adjusting to the speed/physicality of the game ... we as fans are figuring out that there are some darn good basketball TEAMS out there !!! daniC said it best - parity is the word of the 2021-22 campaign - teams can't let their guard down in most leagues or they will get "it" handed to them! ... as you said FIDO - January and February are going to be fun!!! heck it already IS !!!

pfloyd: We deserve to be dropped a lot......very disappointing start to what I would have hoped to be a season of turnaround for the Trojans. 2-3 and at Fairland tomorrow......don't feel good about that one either after 3 straight losses.

... some GREAT matchups tonight!

Eastern Brown vs Whiteoak
Fairland vs Portsmouth
Fort Frye vs Warren
Gallia Academy vs South Point
New Boston vs Western
Hillsboro vs Jackson
Ironton vs the Peake
McClain vs MT
New Lexington vs Sheridan
Parkersburg South vs Logan
Trimble vs Waterford
Waverly vs South Webster
Wheelersburg vs Eastern Pike

... Portsmouth has to prove they are to be talked about as AT LEAST a spoiler in the OVC ... Fort Frye vs Warren or Warren vs Fort Frye a rivalry game , nothing more to say ... the OVC is a great game after great game no matter what night - Gallia Academy vs South Point ... GAHS lost to Ironton - can't afford to drop #2 in the league ... New Boston is not the NB of old BUT they have some players, it IS at home ... the Tigers have been close to getting over the hump - is this the game vs 8-0 Western? - probably not BUT the potential IS there at the Tiger Den ... the Peake vs the Tigers of I'town! the Tigers won't take Chesapeake for granted as CHS is at least a legit spoiler in the OVC and right now is a player ... the FAC is loaded just like the OVC to have great matchups every league night - the boro vs Jackson, McClain vs MT (I'm not giving up on MT - I like Guthrie and the young sophs) ... New Lexington is 5-0! if nothing else THIS game will tell me a lot about New Lex ... Logan is a half-court shot by the U away from being undefeated - Parkersburg South is always a good test on the road ... Trimble vs Waterford - a battle of undefeated teams - pfloyd will be in the Cheap Seats to see Coach Caldwell's Tomcats - love watching the fundamental bb by Trimble ... they are my #1 D4 team Below the Lancaster-Dixon Line for a reason - they're darn good ... BIG SOC 2 matchup between Waverly & South Webster at the Downtown Arena in Waverly! - both teams coming off of losses from the past weekend - both NEED W's in league play so Valley stays within reach ... I have the Wheelersburg game as interesting - as Eastern Pike has upped it's game both offensively and defensively let's see where they stand vs one of the big boys in the SOC2 ...

... taking in the Trimble vs Waterford game tonight ... both teams are undefeated, Howie courtside for the Tomcats... it's always good getting to Glouster for a game ... will see Trimble again on Saturday at the Alley (Alexander High School) vs an outstanding Caldwell ball club for the Alley Classic!
... got a new stash of Twizzlers for the Week that Is ! I'm good to go !

There will be a new #1 in the Pfloyd week 3 rankings as #1 WCH lost on the road last night @ Chillicothe. WCH now 1-2 without Lemaster. Waverly probably reclaims the #1 spot.

... you lose that big man in the middle teams can focus on Reico Colter ... just having Lemaster on the floor opens up the perimeter, which opens up the penetration lanes for RC ... Washington CH "ain't" falling far as I KNOW what they have with the full compliment of weapons ... but you're right the Tigers are looking to take back the #1 spot this week HOWEVER they do take on a very very good Newark HS ball club at the Alley Classic on Saturday at Alexander High School ... Logan dropped a road game last night to Parkersburg South - I'll see what Parkersburg South has Saturday as well as they too will be at the Alley Classic - this will give me some idea as to where the Logan team lands in the rankings this week - the Chiefs travel to Warren for a matchup Friday night with the Warriors ... having seen both teams I would like to say that Logan SHOULD get the W as the Warriors struggle putting points on the board BUT heck I would have bet the house that Washington CH would beat Chillicothe Tuesday night as well! - dang Ouija Board needs updated I'm thinkin' ...
