Everywhere.  https://www.ncaa.com/_flysystem/public-s3/files/D1MenRanking_020923.pdf

(did they look at the resulting PDF, which has the points column on separate pages?  WTAF?)

The seeds are determined by 14 coaches per weight, 2 from each of the 7 conferences. Different coaches vote for different weights. 

The only way I can think of that gets you RBY at #3 is if someone left him off their list completely. Smells fishy.

people whose actual livelihood can be affected by silly things like "poles" might not be 100% altruistic when being asked to do these types of things?

When I worked at AT&T, we were asked to fill out an annual satisfaction survey.  Part of our performance evaluation and raise calculation was how well our organization did on this survey.  Yeah, right.

I heard RBY just dances and stalls.  Maybe that's why the coaches rank him at 3?

Atlantic Coast Conference Tony Robie 133
Atlantic Coast Conference Steve Garland 133
Big 12 Conference Damion Hahn 133
Big 12 Conference Doug Schwab 133
Big Ten Conference Tony Ersland 133
Big Ten Conference Cael Sanderson 133
Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association Zach Tanelli 133
Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association Jason Borelli 133
Mid-American Conference Marcus Gordon 133
Mid-American Conference John Stutzman 133
Pac-12 Conference Zeke Jones 133
Pac-12 Conference Luke Smith 133
Southern Conference Scotti Sentes 133
Southern Conference JohnMark Bentley 133

I think I found the culprit

[Wrestleknownothing]

RBY got 363 points. 

• Assume #1 seed gets 33 points and the #33 seed gets 1 point (Lee got 396 = 12 * 33)
• The high and low are thrown out leaving 12 totals to sum
• 363/11 = 33. 
• So someone left him off the ballot.

He did say no one would remember what RBY did in ten years. Maybe he was just talking about himself.

The high and low are thrown out?  Does that mean 2 people left him off?
