Then they need to vote for Logan. Its so inconsistant because some people dont vote one week from the next and some do and it is always a mess

Just a guess,but from the looks of it, probably not too well.And there is no way to measure since you are the only D1 in this area.I believe Dayton Chaminade and maybe another were ranked Nationally this year as well.

Cant read which way you are going with this, Is it? I dont know either way,but the looks of the school doesen't matter.It's what kind of educational and athletic experience you get while you are there.

Logan Grad, over the past few years I have talked with a several reporters from the Southeast District and just about everyone says that those who have a vote don't and those that do take care of their own and are limited by the number teams they actually see. Some even went on to say that there is a significant amount of voters that are just plain "lazy" and will not take the time to do it. Furthermore, what makes the situation even messier is the fact of the limited number of voters as compared to the metropolitian areas of Columbus, Cincinnati and so on, so each of the Southeast votes are even more crucial.

Therefore, for me it is nice to look at, but I take it for what it is; A popularity contest.

not going anywhere with it. my daughter has played in several tournaments there and it is a very nice school. top notch in every way. the coach is ball of intensity on the court and off the court seems to be a great guy. also met some of their players and they are just as intense watching these tournament games, running scoreboard, clock, etc. i could see why they would be #1.

It takes years of 20+ wins sometimes to get noticed by voters other than the few local ones we have. And then they vote for a few years based on what they remembered from the past few years.
