About the only thing I use maxpreps for is schedules and scores. Pretty quick to navigate and fairly reliable. I wouldn’t use it for stats but then again I’m not sure what a good source would be?

Agreed. I don't think they get emails from the coaches or statisticians that attend the games, so accuracy is not going to be there. Very few news sources do full statistics any more. Originally Posted by Saggy Aggie

I look at it for all the above with the understanding there is some incompleteness with some teams from time to time. The scores and schedules I have found to be reliable but the box score is inconsistent for some games and spot on for others. Its the only national source for statistics that I know of other than NHS Records involving HS Football. That being said Liberty Hill is currently listed as the number 1 rushing offense in the entire nation for all classifications public and private, ins spite of having played 1 to 3 games less than all others in the top 10. I choose to believe that this stat is spot on, lol.

Anytime I’m talking hsfb with someone and they say “maxpreps” I start laughing and walk away.
