Bukkit Support (Please Look)

[Function]

I have the code

public void setupTab() {
        final PacketPlayOutPlayerListHeaderFooter packet = new PacketPlayOutPlayerListHeaderFooter();

        new BukkitRunnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                try {
                    Field a = packet.getClass().getDeclaredField("a");
                    Field b = packet.getClass().getDeclaredField("b");

                    a.setAccessible(true);
                    b.setAccessible(true);

                    Object header = new ChatComponentText(ChatColor.RED + "" + ChatColor.BOLD + "SERVER " + ChatColor.GRAY + "("+Bukkit.getServer().getOnlinePlayers().size()+"/"+Bukkit.getServer().getMaxPlayers()+")");

                    String tpsString;

                    DecimalFormat decimalFormat = new DecimalFormat("##.00");

                    double tps = Bukkit.spigot().getTPS()[0];
                    if(tps > 20) {
                        tpsString = ChatColor.GREEN + "*20.00";
                    } else {
                        tpsString = decimalFormat.format(Bukkit.spigot().getTPS()[0]);
                    }

                    Object footer = new ChatComponentText(ChatColor.GRAY + "" + ChatColor.ITALIC + "Running at "+tpsString+ ChatColor.GRAY + "tps " + "\n\n"+ChatColor.RED + "Purchase ranks and perks at buy.shop.com");

                    a.set(packet, header);
                    b.set(packet, footer);

                    for (Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) {
                        player.setPlayerListName(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', TabPrefix.translate(Vault.getPermissions().getPrimaryGroup(player)) + player.getName()));
                        ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(packet);
                    }
                } catch (NoSuchFieldException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                } catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        }.runTaskTimer(this, 0, 20);
    }

and I was wondering how could I sort the player names by there rank. Is this possible this way?

Comparators are cool. Sort players by their rank's weight.

I know how to do this, but how would I sort the player...

Plenty of ways. Scoreboard teams, is what comes to mind pretty quickly.

But, how would I that is this situation? Would it be the same way?
