Future of the High School Poll

[Grams's Go-Go Boots]

For the 2011-2012 season, the high school poll will be conducted by George Berry.

I'm stepping aside in part so I can focus time on other projects, and in part because I'm concerned that my roll with the rankings I do and other things may have lead to an unintended chilling effect in terms of getting people to vote.

I hope that the number of voters in the future will increase, particularly among the group of people who are knowledgeable about the strengths of national teams but have not been voting recently, or were never voters.
