It's the end of November and declarative statements about March are already being made?  Can you pick stocks for my portfolio PLEASE based on your clairvoyance!

Do you disagree with those teams?

After 5 games it is clear Hamilton and Williams are the front runners for the NESCAC. The difference is Williams beats every team they play handily. Hamiltons style of basketball allows bad teams to stay in games and their Coach plays the entire team almost every game. Williams no surprise has dominated. My biggest surprise of the year has been Middlebury, but when you recognize who is Coaching (Jeff Brown) it becomes less surprising. Every year he finds a way to get the most out of the talent he has. Loses St. Amore and Brown and their team finds a way to make a deep run in the NCAA tournament, loses Jack Daley who was the POY if they made a deeper run in the NESCAC tournament, and now they start the year undefeated. Great Coach and players that buy in. Amherst is yet to be challenged, but I don't see them having the talent to be extremely successful. I see them as one of the first teams out once tournament time comes around. Wesleyan is a victim of circumstance. They have without a doubt had the most challenging schedule to start the season and are playing an extremely young roster outside of Bonner and Bascom. They are very talented but it seems it will take some time. Slow start but I think their talent will make them a very scary team once they adjust to their new team. These are the only teams that have any shot at the NCAA tournament and will represent the NESCAC come March.
