All right! Pablo return for another season! Expect to see D1 and NAIA rankings tomorrow Rich Kern.com Early season rankings include results from last year. D1 rankings are about 83% from last year. NAIA started earlier, and are weighted 55% toward this year

Rankings for Pablo (NCAA DI and NAIA), Rich Kern .com Poll and AVCA Poll are now posted.

I just let Rich Kern know that we won't have d2 or d3 rankings until probably the last week of Sept. There just aren't enough matches from last season to have a solid base. D1 and NAIA are ok, though.

Sent Sept 12 D1 and NAIA rankings to Rich Kern. Looks like d2 will show up next week. Not sure about d3, though. Still highly regionalized, without enough cross over to get a good comparison. I haven't looked ahead at schedules, but I don’t know if it will be resolvable

Will be send in d3 rankings this week. Still very concerned about regionalization of schedules yet, so handle with care. There are very distant connections between top teams, but not sure how reliable they are. But we'll give it a go.

Thing 2: rankings this week will be all based solely on fall 2021 results, so there may be some teams that move more than normal as they lose their last season tether. Then again, outside of d1, last season results weren't saying much.

I think Big Ten Volleyball's claim to the best conference is going to get a big boost in a couple years. This is going to have a huge impact on the landscape of college volleyball.

Just sent the first week of 2022 Pablo rankings for D1, D2 and NAIA to Richkern.com. Mostly based on last year. D1 us 90%, D2 is 87% and NAIA is 80% last year.

Apologies to those who were hoping for the first Pablo D3 rankings yesterday. I was out of town this weekend and didn't have the opportunity to work d3. Doing it now so you'll get them this week.

New Pablo rankings will be available soon. They are becoming more dependent on this season NAIA 66% this year D2 60% this year D3 40% this year D1 57% this year

This week's #PavloRankings are getting more heavily weighted to this year results. D1 and D2 are about 75% this year, NAIA is more than 80%, while D3 is about 60%. D1 and D2 have one more week with some 2021 contribution, NAIA will be all 2022 next week. D3 will happen later

New Pablo ratings are done. D3 is still about 12% 2021, but D1, D2 and NAIA are solely based on this year

Awesome! That gives time to do the tournament as a double-elimination! 😜😜😜😜

First D1 and NAIA rankings sent to richkern.com today. Early season, so D1 is 90% based on last year, and NAIA is 75% last year.

Sept 3 Pablo VB rankings have been sent. D2 and D3 are off and running, trying to make up for lost time D1: 71% last year D2: 85% last year D3: 87% last year NAIA: 55% last year
