    How do you get ranked higher on a p4p list then someone you lost to? Regardless of what you Accomplished in the past, the p4p ranking should at least acknowledge head to head. Seems like favoritism.

    I think your past accomplishments give you a little wiggle room for outliers. I assume you’re talking about Tapia over Pagurayan. Tapia won in overtime and should not be overlooked(in fact he is the #1 overall seed in the state tournament over Pagurayan). That being said, the highest he has finished in the state tournament is 3rd as a Sophomore and DNP as a Freshman. Where Pagurayan is a 2x State Champ. I think P4P takes this and previous years into account. Last year Pagurayan had wins over 2 different state champs during the season and this year he has another win over a previous state champ and has dominated everyone except the OT loss to Tapia. Regardless of favoritism I believe he has earned his place due to overall resume(that actually don’t really compare in that regard), but Tapia will get a chance to prove he is being slighted this weekend when he gets a chance to beat 2 defending state champs in the same tournament. Should be fun!

    With that criteria you just mentioned, there are a lot of other people that should be above tapia then.

    P4P is very opinionated. I feel it would be based on a wrestlers dominance in their weight class. Undefeated, officials champ, league champ, would be huge factors. I think past years performance is just a gauge of who should be considered. The rankings were just updated, why would they update it if past years performance is a factor. Just my opinion.

    P4p ranking should come out after finals that’s where you should base who is p4p doing it before just puts pressure on the wrestlers.

    How does Porter go from #2 & dropping back down to #5 the only one they got right is #1Terukina

    Whose doing the pound for pound? It seems it favors a stacked 152 bracket while 2 of the top 6 have losses this year. Don’t know how you figure it out but you need to get your head out of your ass!

    What about the Kamalu Anahu 160lbs State champ why isn’t He ranked?
