The guys (Brandon Baney, Logan Green, Scott Burton and Paul Kingsbury) got together recently to do a deep dive into the MaxPreps rankings that are used in Idaho's state tournaments. What's working? What isn't? What new info needs to come to light?

If you missed it live, don't worry - we've got you covered. You can watch the entire conversation below. Please remember to like, share, and comment because we will be monitoring the feedback it gets for quite a while.
