Just guessing (obviously) but I think the season probably started with these guys on top
RJ - because he's RJ
Cade - because we were desperate to get a top transfer
Elliot - because everyone expected a big jump in his soph year
Early on, Elliot probably moved up because he was looking like the guy we wanted him to be; whereas RJ and especially Cade were not.
Seth started on fire, so I hope he got some love, too. But I wouldn't be surprised if the money was cautious.
At this point in time, I imagine Ian is getting most of the new money. Seth next.
