Week 17

I've been doing a series like this over on /r/CFB for 6 years now, started for College Basketball last year. The post attempts to visualize consistency between voters in the AP Poll in a single image. Additionally it sorts each AP voter by similarity to the group. Notably, this is not a measure of how "good" a voter is, just how consistent they are with the group. Especially preseason, having a diversity of opinions and ranking styles is advantageous to having a true consensus poll. Polls tend to coalesce towards each other as the season goes on.

Jordan Hansen sat out again for the 3rd week in a row. Lauren Kirschman, Joe Buettner, and Jeff Rabjohns also sat out this week week so there were only 60 voters.

Jon Werner was the most consistent voter this week. Top 5 of Clayton Collier, Sheldon Mickles, Wayne Epps, Kevin Brockway, and Jerry Carino remain unchanged.

Jesse Newell was again the biggest outlier this week. Jesse Newell, Jon Wilner, Luke DeCock, and Seth Davis remain the top 4 outliers, with Paul Klee moving ahead of Sam Blum into 5th.
