The first women's basketball rankings were started by Mel Greenberg during the 1976-77 season. Source. The USA Today Coaches poll was started later (still tracking down whether it started in 1984 or 1986), so no need for earlier years.--S Philbrick (Talk) 22:34, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-11T22:34:00.000Z","author":"Sphilbrick","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sphilbrick-2013-12-11T22:34:00.000Z-Edit_removing_earlier_years","replies":[],"displayName":"S Philbrick"}}-->
