Well here is how I am going about it.&nbsp; I stay connected to the volleyball scene as much as I can.&nbsp; We speak to hundreds of club and high school coaches, club directors, and college coaches across the entire state to gather as much information as possible on each athlete.&nbsp; We study tournaments entered and tournament finishes.&nbsp; We study high schools, preseason lists, and awards given to athletes from the state of California high school systems, coaches associations and club awards.&nbsp;We have been watching a lot of awesome club volleyball tournaments in person and also have been watching hours of game footage and highlight reels as possible.&nbsp; The more film you have online, the better the research and analyzing of skills I can do to make the ranking as accurate as I can.&nbsp; You are more than welcome to tag us on social media or send us emails with updates to your film.&nbsp; It is also a great idea to keep updating it so that you can keep getting more exposure to college coaches.&nbsp; They are watching too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The other question I get often from parents and players is “Is it 100 accurate?”&nbsp; The short answer is no.&nbsp; However, we are putting a lot of hours and hard work into trying to get it as accurate as we can. &nbsp;With over 24 years of analyzing players and college recruiting, it is still a difficult task to get it perfect.&nbsp; The fact that we must take multiple things into consideration and understanding that everyone is entitled to their opinion, has allowed me to be content with how we are going about it.&nbsp; While we know that it is not an exact science, we are very confident in the hard work that is going into analyzing each player and the overall ranking process.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes.&nbsp; If you have anyone you think we should watch out for, please shoot me an email with some info at <a href="mailto:Michael@prepdig.com">Michael@prepdig.com</a>. &nbsp;You can also message me on Instagram and X by searching @CoachMikeDZ.&nbsp; Also don't forget to help these kids get more exposure by sharing our stories with your friends.&nbsp; Help us help them by simply reposting on X or sharing on Facebook.&nbsp; Thanks for following Prep Dig Family!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>🚀 <strong><a href="https://prepdig.com/my-account/subscriptions/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Upgrade to a PrepDig+ Subscription</a></strong><br>Access exclusive rankings, deeper analysis, and the full Prospect Index to follow every athlete's journey.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><a href="https://prepdig.com/events" data-type="link" data-id="prepdig.com/events">N<strong>eed More Exposure?
