Highlights? Do they really show the full picture of a team's current standing or their potential?

Highlights? Do they really show the full picture of a team's current standing or their potential? I'm just a MOCO fan like the others on the board. I'm not officially voting on the Elite 6, just giving my opinion based on seeing teams, seeing highlights, and talking with coaches. I know enough to be dangerous. Not sure where you are going with this. I'm guessing you might be a Blair fan. If so, they will get their recognition when they beat one of the other current Elite 6 teams.

Agreed, if you are making judgements about a team and their potential, you have to look at the complete picture. Highlights can give you a very skewed presentation.

Not a fan of any particular team, rather the entire county. Just figured most people are going by the Post scores and writeups and anything else they see online outside of actually attending the games. Is there a public database for people to watch full games?

Not that I'm aware of. That would be cool though.

Just figured most people are going by the Post scores and writeups and anything else they see online outside of actually attending the games. Is there a public database for people to watch full games? As someone who does vote in the Elite 6 on a weekly basis, I, along with many others, can tell you that I get out to many games during the year. I try to see as many teams as possible and take advantage of those games which are oddly scheduled on a Thursday, Saturday or rescheduled to Monday. Additionally, I watch more tape than I'd be willing to admit. Probably like yourself; we also speak with plenty of coaches, reporters and people in the know. We take advantage of the resources we have and make our best judgment based on what we know. This early in the year, rankings are almost entirely based on quality of returning players and performance in games through 2 weeks. Based on the responses of the fans of this board, I'd say the top 6 teams are right about where everyone expected them to be. I did have a question that I'm curious about. How would you expect any one person to see all 25 public school teams in the county after 2 weeks? Is there an easier way? Also, what do you think folks who vote for college teams do? Do you think they're actually seeing all 128 FBS schools play?

RE: voting on college schools...I would hope the media has access to film. College coaches have easy access to film of teams throughout the country.
RE: voting on HS teams...guess what's taking place is the best method
