But that is ridiculous to include him on those splits and if I was any other guard in the NESCAC I would feel slighted. You have to feel for Alex Lee - had objectively a superior year.
I know it's been touched on before, but looking at tenure across the board, crazy to think that Tufts, Trinity, and Wesleyan will be largely comprised of the same roster. Would be either frustrating or motivating depending on the mental fortitude of other teams (or players) in the conference. That Trinity - Wesleyan weekend on the road has to be the hardest two game stretch in D3.
Singh is great, but agreed. I have played against all these guys and probably you too. I think Espinosa is a great player but there's an opportunity cost here. No James Morakis on first team is strength blasphemy.
Are you insinuating that Morakis is better than Espinosa?
Sure. I haven't seen a guard in D3 with his size, athleticism, skill. He puts kids in a blender
Understand and appreciate the affinity for your alma mater, but Espinosa is a much better offensive talent - and it's easy to be a good perimeter defender when you have two rim protectors inside (I thought I was Tony Allen on the perimeter - turns out Sobel just had 110 blocks in a season). For me it's not close. Don't think Tufts would be much worse if they had a different person running point. Espinosa gone kills Conn.
And if Shane Regan knew what's good for him, he would remained station in Middletown. Outstanding player but much easier to score against 6'2 2/3 than 6'7.
