Kindly Request - Scholarship Table

[Henry Sugar]

As I have stated many times, I love the scholarship table.  With friends via IM or email, I will use it all the time.  It is a fantastic resource.

Could we please get an update?

Man, that thing is so out of date, I half expected to see Dameon Mason on there...

[APieperFan3]

I think it would be AWESOME to have it even stretch back into the 90's....

Anybody out there have any of that info?

It would be cool to see.

You are going to remove Dave Singleton and replace with Jake Thomas?

One suggestion to whomever edits the scholarship table...I would move the freshmen back to the top of the table starting with 2011-12. It will at least keep the table level instead of stretching to infinity both to the right and down. Just set it up so every four years, the new recruits go back to the top and it should work fine. The color-coding still lets us know the proper class.

Rocky usually edits it .. perhaps he's busy.

If someone lists out what needs to be changed for 2011-12, 12-13, 13-14 .. I'll edit.

Yes I've neglected it, mostly because I keep forgetting when I'm home (where I have the master spreadsheet).

For APieperFan3, look at this post, the spreadsheet goes back to 2000, and I've made the edits from that thread, but you can get the PDF as of November 12, 2009, 08:33:44 PM here...

Really?  As far as a Know it's only missing the Jake Thomas, Singleton, and Steve Taylor changes.  Which means that I'm behind by a whopping 2 months (+6 days).

I disagree.  I've consistently had 5 years on there, and I'll slide it over one more year once we have a recruit for 2013-2014.  Otherwise it's pretty boring.   It's "tall" right now because of all the churn, but showing the players a few years past is more interesting than projecting all current players to be at MU through their eligibility.

Edit:  I think I see you're saying something else, but I haven't made sense of it yet.  Are you saying just have 4 columns of "frosh, soph, junior, senior"? Or maybe an example would help me understand your idea better.  Nonetheless, I'm not convinced it needs a change of format.

I think that's what he's saying (re: EDIT).

Just keep the classes on the left side bar and shift the dudes down each year.

I kid...I kid....

Gotcha, rocky...didn't realize you cycled years out as well. I think my explanation would apply more to an overall PDF that charted multiple years, so if you were putting up 10 years of scholarship table, I was thinking to restart every fourth (or fifth) class at the top. But if there's only five years ever up there, that makes perfect sense.

Carry on, then

Minor suggestion.
Move it to the wiki, so it's community editable?  I think most people here can handle the responsibility of removing Freeway as a 20 yr senior.

I'll add myself as a one and done.

I think we should do away with the scholarship table and implement a scholarship pie-chart.

I'd love to do that, but honestly tables in the wiki are a pain in the ass - from an editing standpoint.  Yes, it's absolutely possible though.

Pie charts on the other hand...

Another minor add to a "to-do" list - which could go in the "Suggestions" forum, but still on topic.

A link on the Scholarship Table page to the Historical PDF file?
