There were 397 players nominated from 139 of the 153 schools we cover. Nominees included any player that was a first team all-league, All-District, All-State performers in 2019 and any player that has Division I – FBS offers as well as wild card/at large (players we like) nominations.

Our staff vote accounted for 70 percent of the vote, with the fan vote accounting for the other 30 percent.

MORE ON FAN VOTING

Our fan voting accounted for 30 percent of the final tally that makes up the team. Unfortunately, this year we had several instances where our defined rules were violated. Only one vote per hour, per IP addressed was permitted. However, numerous voters found ways around that on the front end. Our reports on the back end flagged all of these violations and all those votes were deemed invalid in our final tally. Some positions were impacted more drastically than others were.

We’ve always aimed to find ways to drive engagement and include fans in our process, but protecting the integrity of the process is becoming increasingly difficult. We will continue to work to improve this moving forward.
