Looks like we're the last region to get one of these started up. So, I'll be happy to organize one if we can get at least 10 reliable voters. We can use D3football.com's West Region team list as eligible teams to consider. I'm hoping to get two or three people from each conference to participate, if possible. With no more than one representative/fan from each school.....just to have a fair and unbiased poll as possible. Since we're halfway through this season already, I will probably won't start until the 2015 season.

This could be fun, considering (as we all know) the West is where the power conferences in DIII reside  :P  ;)

So if you're fan of a West region team (MIAC, WIAC, MWC, IIAC, SCIAC, UMAC, or NWC) and interested in doing this next year, you can send me a message or sign up here:

1. 02 Warhawk (UWW - WIAC)
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

Please, one person per school (sorry UWW fans)  :-\ .

I don't think you need 10 voters.  Most of the other fan polls seem to work fine with 5-8.
I was small but made up for it by being slow...

I just said 10 in hoping to get one or two voices from each conference....but that might be difficult. I'll see who's interested and go from there.

I'm game.

What if I'm unwilling to rank teams from two of those seven conferences in the West's top 10?  :-X

MasterJedi

If you need me without weighting to poll too far to UWW's side, I'm game.

We can use a few pollsters from the left coast.

02, I think you should allow MasterJedi to be the one, WW pollster, not yourself.  I know it is through you that this action might come to fruition, but you've taken a rather unilateral and undemocratic approach to selecting yourself without anybody else having an opportunity to put their hat in the ring. MJ has indicated his willingness to be part of this endeavor, so why don't you step aside by become the poll administrator and yield your self-appointed position to MasterJedi or anyone else who might be interested? Plus, you're already part of the national Top 25 Fan poll - how 'bout sharing the wealth a little?  All in favor say I...

I don't see anything wrong with two UWW voters. NRFP has a few Wabashians and it works out OK.

Besides, I don't think UWW bias will be that much of a deal. Everyone kinda knows where UWW goes in the poll :)

I know 02 Warhawks is trying to be as balanced as possible, but given the choice between no WRFP at all vs. a poll with a couple UWW voters, I'll take the poll with a little extra purple in it.

Plus, UWW diehards probably have a good feel for many of the other West conferences because of the multiple deep playoff runs.

Yeah, I'm ok with it as well. I'd just like to see a poll.

And like ExTartan said, I think we've all got a pretty good idea where to slot UWW right now!

I may allow one more WIAC fan to enter....I just don't want it to me WIAC heavy. Hopefully some fans from the NWC and SCIAC would be interested in joining. As well as some from the other conferences.

We have plenty of time though.

02 you need to post something on the other West Region forums and let them know what you're doing and that you're looking for their participation.

I'd be willing to be involved but you've already got two WIAC people.

I probably will advertise it more early before next season. Yea, I'm trying to get a wide variety of voters....not all fans from the same team or conference.

That makes sense and would undoubtedly make the poll better.  Of course you know me and how totally unbiased I can be.   ;D
