First thing I see is Dwenger at 16. Hmmm, seems a bit high, especially given a conversation  recently that we had when I praised Dwenger. Are these rankings based on last year or where you really believe these teams are this year?

Can't even throw in the once mighty Snider Panthers into Honorable Mention? Come on, throw em a bone

High school pre-season polls aren't easy. I imagine there will be a lot of movement in the next couple of weeks. I give a lot of credit to last seasons performance. I believe you're at the top until someone knocks you off. I took the coaches poll into consideration. And a little bit of gut based one what I'm hearing in social media. Trying to give an unbiased opinion. If @temptation ever shows up, he can have the poll back. I didn't want to see the Top 25 go away in his absence.

They fell off the radar last season. More of a "wait and see" kind of a team.

I've got them at #13.............ahead of some pretty darn good programs. Think they should be higher?

I think my big miss might have been Heritage Hills..............probably Honorable Mention consideration. The Top 25 is brutal. Lots of great programs in Indiana.
