An example of this is 365, in week 2 at chestnut hill district they had an OPR of 21.2 ranking 82nd over all while week 4 at Lenape with a new shooter 365 had an OPR of 31.1 ranking 11th or using teams latest event's OPR ranking 7th.

This is definitely a limitation of OPR. I am not sure how valid it is to compare OPRs across events at all, for that matter. I am a much bigger fan of CCWM (OPR+DPR), since it better reflects contributions to score DIFFERENTIAL rather than raw score itself. Many top teams leave a lot of potential points on the field once they see they have built a big lead so that they can ensure a higher success % on the Coopertition Bridge.

P.S. I really like the new shooter
