You're right on, Mick. While my regular season schedule may/may not be impacted by ratings (in the bigger associations they are, as I don't know the "big wigs" in my larger association yet)...tournament selections ARE. The MHSAA weighs the coaches ratings HIGHLY when it comes to tournament invitations.

Now...with three games at the varsity level last season, it's not like I'm expecting to be chosen for the tournament any time soon. I DO hope in the next five years or so, however. We'll see how it pans out. But...rankings DEFINITELY play in Michigan.
