Re: FRC Top 25- Post-Build Ranking

There's "great looking" and "great performing". While they are not mutually exclusive, particularly since the former tends to follow the latter, great looking != great performing. One of the most convincing performances of a rookie was by the last pick in Arizona 2006. Their robot looked like a nightmare, to be quite honest. They won the event. Really good looking robots don't always do well either. You can't go by looks when evaluating a team. If you think differently, you have a lot to learn.

Rookies aren't showing up because we don't know much about them. I bet that by the end of the season, some will be making a run at the list.
