    Break the poll up by talent level then? Is that possible? It my create a little extra work, but if it's a legit concern, it might ease the concern.

    That'd be like coming out with a Top five poll for each division of college football.
    RI only has 43 teams in the state - D-I has nine, D-II 16, D-III 9, D-IV 9. No use in doing rankings when teams only play within the division. Last year's final poll had three D-I teams in the top three spots, then a DII team. One D-III team cracked the top 10 and a D-IV team was in the top 13. I think all in all, D-III and D-IV had six teams in the top 20, D-I had six, and D-II had eight.
