Coach K's Northern California JC Rankings - Week 3

Week 3 included some grueling competition as well as giving us a peak at all of NorCals competition for the 2013-14 year, as all teams have now played this season.   One thing I can tell for sure, is that this is going to be one of the most competitive years for California JC ball in quite awhile!  Their is no clear runaway top team, as almost everyone seems to have raised their talent level from last year.  Looking at the Top 15 I feel that every team on the list can win on any given night against any team.  It's still early in the year, and some teams have a greater upside than others, while others could be considered 'early peakers', and others just need to play against better competition before we can decide where to rank them.

Here is Coach K's unscientific look at his Top 15 in Northern California JC Basketball
*Again, this is not an official ranking, this is only my opinion. This ranking is only as serious as you make it*
----Updated Rankings---- Coach K's Week 4 Rankings click here ------ Week 5 Rankings click here ---

1 - Yuba (4-1)    Massey ranking #2
    Still holding down the #1 spot in my opinion for this season.  Did not play this past week, but still holds the only victory over CCSF who Massey has ranked #1 in Northern California as well as in the State of California.
    Center High (Antelope) standout Chris Smith leads the way offensively posting 23 pts, 7 rebs & 5 assists per contest.
     Next game vs. Columbia on December 3rd @ 4pm in the 76th Modesto Tournament which features 16 teams.  I am going to come right out and say this ahead of time, whoever wins this tournament will be my automatic #1 bid for that week!   Take a look at the bracket here.


2 - Fresno City (8-1)   Massey ranking #3
     Has won 2 tournaments this year, the grueling San Francisco Tournament with key wins over Santa Rosa & Yuba, and also the El Camino Tournament this past weekend with wins over host El Camino (2-3), Moorpark (2-4) & Lassen (4-2) in the Championship.   So since they beat Yuba, who I currently still place #1, you're probably asking why I have FCC ranked #2.  Losing on their home court to Sierra is currently haunting FCC at this point in my ranking scale, but they still earn a spot ahead of San Francisco for winning 2 solid tournaments this year and starting out with an impressive 8-1 record.
    Bay Area product Dejon Budreaux (San Leandro High) averaged 12 pts after going scoreless in the opening game.  James O'Neal (Freedom High) averaged 9 pts and 5 assists over the final two games of the tournament.
    Next action Dec 3rd vs. De Anza @ 2pm in the 76th Modesto Tournament.  Not a bad afternoon of basketball.  Yuba plays at 2pm followed by FCC at 4pm.  More great games follow.  Might be worth taking an entire week off!

3 - San Francisco (5-1)    Massey ranking #1
     So I  knocked them down a spot for not playing this past week?  You're absolutely right, I'm a basketball fan and since FCC went and won another tournament while CCSF took a week off, I'm going to have to punish them a bit.  Actually it was a very tough decision but I felt that both Yuba and FCC had better arguments at this point for the #1 spot in my warped mind than CCSF so there you go.
    CCSF, however did win the Fresno City Tournament with victories over Allan Hancock (3-3), Santa Rosa (3-3) and Sierra (2-1).  They are still monsters on the glass and their size and athleticism will overwhelm most opponents.  Oh yeah, and they have this guy named Dulani Robinson.
    Next action at Hartnell (0-2) on 11/26 @ 7pm & Santa Rosa on 11/30 @ 7:30pm on the road.

4 - Ohlone (5-1)     Massey ranking #5
     Moves up from #14 in my ranking after a very impressive weekend winning the Championship of the Shasta Invitational Tournament.   Solid wins over Merritt (4-2) 97-83, Canada (1-6) 86-64 and Diablo Valley (2-1) 67-54 in the Championship give Ohlone enough clout to jump up to #4.  Only loss was opening game of the season to Delta (3-1) at home, which will haunt their memories for a little longer.  But with a showing like last weekend, that memory is fading fast.
   Newark Memorial product Casey Norris posted a double-double of 21 pts & 10 assists in the opening round over Merritt College.
    Next action is 11/30 vs West Valley (2-3) @ 5pm

5 - Sierra (2-1)     Massey ranking #4
     No games this past week.  Impressive win over Fresno City on the road in the opening round of the FCC tournament is what keeps them in the top 5.  Lost to San Francisco in the Championship.   I'm also biased because I've seen them play and they are arguably the best all-around team Sierra has had in a long time, which should make them contenders in conference and state this year.
    Next action is against Los Angeles Pierce in the Citrus College Tournament on 11/29 @ 6pm

6 - Cosumnes River (5-1)     Massey Ranking #12
      Jumps up seven spots to #6 after running off three wins in their own tournament this past weekend.  Solid wins over Columbia (4-3) 76-48, Portervillle (5-3) 86-68 & handing Chabot their first loss of the season (6-1) in the Championship game by a score of 81-74.  
      6'9 post Daiveon Leverett (Weston Ranch) is out with an injured finger, but CRC seemed to be playing just fine while they await the return of their freshman big man.  Jaycob Velasco, AJ Bridges and Rodney Cook seem to be a triple threat as they scored 55 of the 81 points in the Championship game.
      Next action vs Reedley (2-1) on December 3rd @ 8pm in the 76th Modesto Tournament.   *If CRC and Chabot can escape the first round, be on the lookout for a rematch between these two.

7 - Delta  (3-1)       Massey Ranking #10
      No games this past week.  Previously ranked #10 by Coach K, but actually benefited from Ohlone jumping up so high in the rankings, since they gave Ohlone (6-1) their only loss of the season, at home, in the opening game of the Ohlone Tournament.  Delta also has a solid win over Cabrillo (4-2) as they took home the Championship of that tournament.   Could be ranked higher, but suffered a loss at home to Columbia (4-3).
    So far St. Mary's (Stockton) product Alex Simmons leads the way on the offensive end posting 16 pts per contest followed by Jerrel Green of Bear Creek who is averaging 14 pts & 9 rebs while shooting just under 60%.
     Next action is at Merced (0-6) on 11/26 @ 7pm.

8 - Los Medanos (5-0)        Massey Ranking #7
      NorCals sole undefeated team, comes off a weekend winning the Mendocino Tournament.   Wins over Modesto (3-3) 89-81, Siskiyous (4-2) 77-71, and Butte (3-3) in the Championship by a score of 86-75.   I am looking forward to seeing LMC go up against more worthy opponents in the Monterey Classic & Santa Rosa Tournaments in December.
     No stats are currently posted up for LMC so far for this season.
     Next action vs. Gavilan (1-4) in the opening round of the Monterey Classic on 12/5 @ 7pm.

9 - Lassen (4-2)       Massey Ranking #14
      Stays at the #9 spot after heading down to Southern California for the El Camino Tournament and finishing 2nd after falling to Fresno City (8-1) 63-80.   Actually held a 7 point halftime lead 41-34 over FCC before getting outscored 46-22 in the 2nd half.   Comes back home from SoCal with wins over Sequoias (2-6) 75-68 and Cuesta (3-3) 85-77.    Oakland  High prospect Meshawn Beard averaged 14 points & 5 assists in the tourney, and McClymonds standout Lawrence 'Steady' Otis averaged 10 points over the weekend.
      Next action Lassen faces Contra Costa (1-2) in the opening round of the DVC tourney on 11/29 @ 6pm.

10 - Chabot (6-1)       Massey Ranking #13
      Falls from last weeks #6 spot after losing to Cosumnes River (5-1) 74-81 in the Championship of the Cosumnes River Tournament.   Had wins over Merced (0-6) 96-49 and Napa (2-3) 78-64 in the first 2 rounds.  Unfortunately for Chabot, the Cosumnes River game was really their first against a top tier opponent, and by falling to the Hawks it is going to hurt their ranking at this point. Chabot has a chance at redemption in the Modesto Tournament where they could face Cosumnes River on a neutral court in the 2nd round, as well as other top tier opponents, if they can advance in the winners bracket.
  Chabot has an impressive roster, and if they can put it together, can compete with anyone.   Oakland Tech product, Leo Smith scored 17 points in the Championship game and averaged 13 pts & 3 assists over the weekend.   Skyline High prospect Paris Davis averaged 10 points & 4 rebounds while Sacred Heart Cathedral point guard Khalil James started all 3 games during the tourney.  Bay Area native & University of Memphis transfer Matt Simpkins is averaging close to a double-double to go with 4 blocks per game. Rumored to have dominated at times on the defensive end, Simpkins could be scary when he realizes he could also dominate on the offensive end by staying in the post
    Next up is Shasta (1-6) on 12/4 @ 2pm in the opening round of the 76th Modesto Tournament.

11 - Diablo Valley (2-1)     Massey Ranking #8
      DVC decided to unveil their 2013-14 squad 3 weeks into the season, and posted some solid wins over Cabrillo (4-2) 68-63 and Foothill (3-3) 69-60, before falling to Ohlone (6-1) 54-67 in the Championship of the Shasta Invitational Tournament.
    Bishop O'Dowd prospect Justin Yeargin scored 11 in the first game, while De La Salle product Joe McNiff had 6 treys on the way to 19 points.   Jermaine Edmonds of Salesian posted 18 points in the second victory, while A.B. Najee out of Berkeley scored 13.
      Next up DVC faces Solano (2-3) in the first round of the Diablo Valley Tournament on 11/29 @ 8pm.

12 - Cabrillo (4-2)      Massey Ranking #11
     Cabrillo drops one spot thanks to the emergence of DVC in the rankings.  Cabrillo took the Consolation Championship this weekend with a victory over American River (1-4) 67-62 & solid win over Merritt (4-2) 83-76.   Lost to DVC (2-1) in the opening round 63-68.
     Detroit product Warren Jackson leads the offense with 14 pts per game.
     Next up Cabrillo hosts the Cabrillo Tournament starting 12/6.  Bracket has yet to be posted

13 - Santa Rosa  (3-3)       Massey Ranking #6
     No games this past week.  But actually moves up a few spots to #13.   2 of their losses are to San Francisco, and the other to Fresno City.  Took San Francisco down to the buzzer in the second match.  Santa Rosa has weapons both inside and outside, and has a chance at revenge  when they face San Francisco again at home on 11/30 @ 7:30pm
     Northern Cali products Alec Kobre (Montgomery High) & Matt Hayes (Pleasant Grove) lead the way on the offensive end averaging 16 & 15 respectively.

14 - Merritt  (4-2)       Massey Ranking #9
     Drops all the way from last weeks #5 spot down to #14 after suffering 2 losses in the Shasta Invitational.  Won the San Jose Tournament in the opening weekend, but losing in the Consolation Game this past weekend is not something to brag about.   Lost in the opening round to Ohlone (6-1) 83-97 and Cabrillo (4-2) 76-83.  It's sole win over the weekend was over Shasta (1-6) 97-83.
    Oakland native Denzel Bellot averaged 15 pts & 4 rebs over the weekend.  El Camino product Anthony Knight averaged 19 pts & 6 rebs over 3 games.  San Jose State transfer, David Andoh, posted 19 pts & 10 rebs in the loss against Cabrillo.
    Up next Merritt faces Bakersfield (4-1) on 11/29 @ 5pm in the Bakersfield Tournament.

15 - San Jose City (2-2)     Massey Ranking #18
    San Jose goes on a 2 game skid after suffering a loss to Reedley (2-1) at home 82-87.
     Next up San Jose City faces Sacramento City in the opening round of the DVC Tournament on 11/29 @ 2pm.

Flaws in the Massey Ratings

   Am I competitive? You betcha.  Are their flaws in my unscientific weekly ratings on Northern California JC Men's Basketball, absolutely.  I took a look at my current sole competitor ,the Massey Ratings, for California Community College Men's Basketball to see where our ratings compared.  To no surprise, I noticed some big differences in my ratings compared to the computerized ratings by Massey.  For this reason I decided to dig a little deeper into how everything is calculated by Massey. I've never looked at these ratings in such detail before, it was interesting to see all the various calculations and predictions.
   On thing that stood out to me was the 'Strength of Schedule - played games only' (SoS) and 'Strength of Schedule - including future games' (SSF).  These rankings based on Strength of Schedules seem to heavily influence where teams are rated.  I analyzed these numbers out of curiosity to see which teams had the toughest schedules ahead, when I realized something just didn't seem to fit.  When I clicked on a few teams to see their schedule I realized that some key match-ups where omitted and also noticed some other glaring defects to the calculations.

   San Francisco has the #1 ranking currently on Massey with a #3 based on (SoS) and #2 based on (SSF).  Therefore I would assume that most teams in their conference would have a pretty high (SSF) since they would have to face CCSF at least twice this year.   Looking at CCSF's schedule on Massey Ratings I realized that both their games against Chabot were omitted in the conference schedule.  I then went on Chabot's schedule and they also did not have these two match-ups scheduled.  Chabot's (SSF) is #70 currently, which I'm sure would be adversely affected if the two match-ups with the #1 team on this rating system were included. This also would benefit every team on Chabot's schedule.
    I then did some more searching around and noticed that in the Central Valley Conference some games were missing as well. West Hills, currently (4-0) has a (SSF) of #88, but their schedule is omitting the February 12th game between Fresno City College, the #3 team ranked in the North on the Massey Rating.  I looked on Fresno City College's schedule and they are missing this game as well.  I figure this match-up would benefit both these teams in their Massey Rating, as well as every team on their schedule.
   Lassen has a #87 for their (SSF), which is obviously affected by the fact they are playing in 7 tournaments. This is because the Massey system can only include the first match-up in these tournaments, until these tournaments begin.  Since Lassen's conference, The Golden Valley Conference, historically is one of the weaker conferences in the state, their conference schedule heavily influences this score for their Strength of Schedule.   This flaw not only affects Lassen, but every team they are scheduled to play.  Cosumnes River has a #82 based on (SoS). Their schedule consists of only 3 games, one against Lassen in the first game of the season.  Lassen's (SSF) has to have an impact on everyone they face based on this rating system until Lassen plays through these tournaments and all their opponents can be added to the calculations.
   DVC has a #2 rating based on 'Strength of Schedule - played games only', yet DVC hasn't played a single game this year.  This would have to be pretty advantageous to any teams scheduled to face DVC since this would obviously bolster their (SSF) having a team with such a high (SoS) on their schedule.
   I'm sure their are even more flaws to this system, most of which are because the season is just starting.  But the defects and omitted match-ups not only influence the score of the team involved, but it has a domino effect on every teams' rating. Just think of an algebra problem that has only one # wrong, it throws off the entire calculation and the answer will obviously not be correct.
   I still enjoy looking at these ratings and I think they are interesting and helpful to observe.  But I feel that nothing can make up for the 'human approach' to rating teams.  Their is something to be said for actually physically seeing these teams play and talking to other coaches/scouts about the different programs.  Knowing about the coaching styles and traditions of programs is also a factor that is always an added benefit to the 'human approach'.  Of course, in the 'human approach' their is always room for bias to influence the ratings.  
   I feel that the fans and athletic departments benefit from both types of ratings systems, and when using both systems we are able to experience a more reliable and true ranking overall.
   Now that I know where to find the Massey Ratings, I will definitely include them in my considerations for my weekly ratings.  I can also use them to calculate my own state rankings, since I probably won't see many teams from the South play this year.
   Overall, the Massey Ratings are a cool and beneficial system for the basketball world.  However, I am looking forward to a 'Coaches Poll' or other Poll where the 'human approach' is also a factor in the ratings.

Coach K's Northern California JC Rankings - Week 2

I felt that after the 2nd week it would be easier to rank the teams in Northern California, but I was wrong.  The results of games held at Fresno City College this weekend has put a monkey wrench in my already unscientific ranking system.  So again.....Don't take this ranking system too seriously.  But for the fun of it, here is how I would put the Northern California rankings so far. (Some teams have yet to play, so they will not be included in this ranking)

**I was able to narrow down a Top 6 at this point in the season (CCSF, FCC, Yuba, Sierra, Chabot & Merritt).  However, deciding how to rank them was pretty mind boggling.  But here is how I would place them so far, the Northern California Top 15 for Week 2

1 - Yuba (5-1)
     After many minutes scratching my head I had to place Yuba #1.  They beat CCSF in San Francisco, and also defeated a very good Mt San Antonio team from the south who is currently 4-2 and the defending State Champions.  These two wins are the best so far on any NorCal teams resume, which places them #1 on my list

     Last weeks results:  Wins over American River (1-2) by a score of 91-61 and also Sac City (2-3) by a score of 95-90.

     Next action isn't until December when they face Columbia (3-1) in the first round of the 16-team Modesto Tournament on Dec 3rd @ 4pm.

2 - CCSF (5-1)

     CCSF earns the #2 spot after winning the Fresno City Tournament. Victories over Allan Hancock (3-3) by a score 95-80; Santa Rosa (3-3) at the buzzer 78-76; and Sierra (2-1) in the Championship 90-77.  Since they lost to Yuba in San Francisco I had to give the #1 nod to Yuba for this week.  CCSF is a beast on the offensive glass and will continue to man-handle most teams with second chance buckets and athletic drives to the rim.

    Next action is at Hartnell (0-2) on 11/26 @ 7pm

3 - Sierra (2-1)

     With a big-time win over host Fresno City in the opening round of the FCC Tournament Sierra earns a #3 spot in Northern California from Coach K.  Very aggressive, organized and well rounded, this will be a team to lookout for in NorCal this year.  Impressive wins over Fresno (5-1) 81-71 and Modesto (1-2) 86-64 before falling to CCSF (5-1) 77-90 in the Championship of the FCC Tournament.

       Next action is against LA Pierce in the Citrus College Tournament on 11/29

4 - FCC (5-1)
     Coming off a high after winning the rugged San Francisco Tournament, Fresno placed themselves up against Sierra in the first round of their own tournament.  Never a good feeling to be in the consolation bracket on your home court, but Fresno turned it around with a victory over Feather River (0-4) 91-51 and a one point win over Allan Hancock (3-3) in the Consolation game.

     Next action is against El Camino in the El Camino Tournament on 11/22 @ 8pm.

5 - Merritt (3-0)
     Winning the San Jose City tournament with a 115-105 over host San Jose City (2-1) gives Merritt enough clout for a top 5 ranking so far.   Last week ranked #3, but no games this past week.  Their other victories were over Monterey (2-3) and Riverside (1-5). Riverside hasn't proven to be as quality of a win as I initially thought, with a starting record of (1-5).  This bumped down Merritt's ranking at this point until they face Ohlone (3-1) on 11/22 in the first round of the Shasta Tournament @ 8pm.  This will give both Merritt & Ohlone a chance to prove themselves against more top tier competition.
  
6 - Chabot (4-0)
     Totally dominated Hartnell (0-2) in a 97-60 romp at Chabot this week.  West Hills, previously ranked higher than Chabot, escaped Hartnell by only 4 points earlier in the week.  Since it's so early in the season I don't have much to go on, but this is a big difference in scores so this will bump Chabot up one spot ahead of West Hills.  Also, Matt Simpkins made his debut against Hartnell and looks to be showing he still can be an elite level player.

Previously Chabot won the Las Positas Tournament with victories over Contra Costa (1-2), Butte (1-2) and host team Las Positas (2-1).

    Next action is against Merced (0-4) in the opening round of the Cosumnes River Tournament at 4pm on 11/21.

7 - West Hills (4-0)
     Only one game this past week in a victory on the road against Hartnell (0-2) 67-63.  Previously won the Cuesta Tournament with wins over Santa Barbara (0-3), West Valley (2-2) and Allan Hancock (3-3) in the Championship game.

    With a chance to prove themselves, West Hills will next face Bakersfield (3-1) in Coalinga on 11/20 @ 6pm.

8 - San Jose City (2-1)
     No games this week.  Previously had a quality win against Lassen (2-1) at the San Jose City tournament.  The win against Merced (0-4) doesn't do much for their eventual RPI rating, but it's a W.   Have to also knock them down a spot for losing on their home court.

    Next up is Reedley (1-1) on 11/23 at 3pm in San Jose.

9 - Lassen  (2-1)
     No games this past week. Could be ranked higher with a quality win over Cosumnes River (2-1) and Riverside (1-5) in the San Jose City Tournament. But cannot have them ranked higher than San Jose City who beat them in the 2nd round of the Tournament.

    Next up is Sequoias (1-4) on 11/22 in the El Camino Tournament @ 4pm.

10 -  Delta (3-1)

     Previously ranked #6.  Lost momentum gained winning the Ohlone Tournament by losing at home to Columbia (3-1).  Get chance at redemption in their next match on the road against Merced (0-4) on 11/26 @ 7pm.

11 - Cabrillo  (2-1)
     No games this past week. Getting 2nd in the Ohlone Tournament gives them the 11th place nod.  Had victories over Shasta (1-4) and Sac City (2-3) and have to give them some respect for getting to the Championship of their first tournament this year.

     Next up Cabrillo gets to face off against Diablo Valley College (0-0) in the Shasta Invitational on 11/22 @ 2pm.  This game will definitely give us more insight on just how good Cabrillo is, and of course, DVC, who has yet to grace the court with their presence this season.

12 - Las Positas (2-1)
     No games this past week. Something to be said for making it to the Championship of a tournament.   Has victories over Gavilan (1-4) and Siskiyous (2-1) to start the season before falling to district rival Chabot in the Championship.

    Next up is Butte (1-2) in the Mendocino Tournament at 6pm on 11/21

13 - Cosumnes River (2-1)
     No games this past week.  Consolation Championship in the San Jose City Tournament.  Lost to Lassen (2-1) in the first round, but picked up wins over Merced (0-4) and Monterey (2-3).

     Next up is Columbia (3-1) in the Cosumnes River Tournament on 11/21 @ 6pm.

14 - Ohlone (3-1)
      Looked through my rankings and realized I left Ohlone out.  Holding down the 14th spot after another blowout victory, this time over Gavilan (1-4) by a score of 95-44.  Previously won Consolation bracket of Ohlone Tournament.  Other wins consist of blowouts over Feather River (0-4) and Shasta (1-4).  To bring their ranking up from 14 Ohlone gets a chance to prove themselves against Merritt (3-0) on 11/22 in the first round of the Shasta Tournament @ 8pm.

15 - Columbia (3-1)

      Coming on strong with a 3 game winning streak that includes the most recent victory on the road against San Joaquin Delta (3-1) by a score of 80-72.  Previous victories included Gavilan (1-4) and Contra Costa (1-2) in the Consolation bracket of the Las Positas Tournament.  

16 - Santa Rosa (3-3)

      I just don't feel right for punishing SRJC for it's 3 losses, so added an extra spot in the top 15 for SRJC.  2 losses were against #2 CCSF, and the other against #4 Fresno City.  And they took CCSF down to the wire in the second game losing at the buzzer.  They have some weapons both inside and outside and I feel they are the type of team nobody looks forward to facing.  Wins so far against Modesto (1-2), Marin (1-2) and Sequoias (1-4).  They will face CCSF one more time at SRJC on November 30th @ 7:30pm to see if they can get their revenge.

Others worth considering

Los Medanos (2-0)

Skyline (2-0)

Porterville (3-1)

Siskiyous (2-1)

Redwoods (2-1)
