Glenn and Chris:

1) When doing overall rankings for the class (i.e., which school got the top class, etc.), do you factor in players who have transferred (e.g., Jess McCormack to Washington, Whitney Zachiariason to Baylor, etc.)?

2) As ESPN Hoopgurlz continues to grow and expand, do you think you guys will start ranking junior college players?

Thank You,

1. We've not factored in transfers; we didn't at Scout or Rivals, either, for any sport. The problem is, these players don't totally re-open recruiting to all schools. Plus we're not really ranking incoming classes, but the recruitment of a specific class of high-school players. We consider ourselves a high-school site that covers recruiting, so I doubt we'd change this.

2. We've been asked that a lot. We may but we of course have to feel confident we have a strong grasp on the high-school scene, nationally. I'd say we still want to get a lot stronger.
