@SetonHallPirate three enhancement requests:

As a viewer I would like to see which wrestler has the highest SOS when viewing P4P tab.

As a viewer I would like to see a sort-filter option added to all tabs for School, Rating, SOS (pending), and Weight.

As a viewer I would like to see Name and School column headers added; this will increase capability of drill-downs if #2 request is implemented.

I don't often drill down into the data

But when I do

I wait for @Wrestleknownothing to do the heavy work

Stay analytical my friends.

I've been playing with Britt's data this year in the hopes I can actually expedite the time it takes to create my D1 Preview Guide. It's also giving me data to start working more with how I'm learning how to write MySQL and understand HOW it works. Everything I've done is self-taught, so there's holes in methodology and sometimes understanding queries and joining tables, etc.

This won't include wrestlers not listed, since blank fields in tables don't like to be sorted very well. The NULL values load up the front and back when sorting. One of these days, we'll have some type of uniform way to cross-reference data. I'm trying to learn it without repeating what WrestleStat is doing. Britt's data is ONLY stuff that'll be used for qualification, so I'll be using that, since it'll line up with what the NCAA will export with its brackets, etc. 

Granted, you'll lose some of those "oh, he lost to a D3 kid, it's not listed" kinda things, but it's not being used for qualification anyway. This is why records in our sport SUCK. Even when we track it, it's not used or like the ECM's, coaches exploit the rule so badly in one year, it's removed.

Not certain I understand the 174 rankings. Does Vegas not count?

They aren't rankings, they're ratings. There's a pretty robust explanation on Pirate's link.
