Conference Champions Draft League

[Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)]

I had a change of heart and I'll make Rhode Island College from LEC Mr. Irrelevant. 

Regarding who is left no one who jumped off the page for me.  In New England which I know by far the best I thought about Wesleyan, Gordon, Lasell as well.

Interesting that the LEC and NESCAC ended up with 6 teams selected each. Why not Middlebury? The HCAC had 6 teams selected, yet no Franklin. Thoughts on Washington & Lee and Franklin & Marshall? The CC, CSAC, GNAC and UEC each only had 3 teams selected, are they that cut and dried? The UAA also had only 3, but the Washington U. factor came into play there. Good draft, will be fun to watch play out.

The NESCAC, with the single round robin, is always up in the air.  If you're choosing top three finishers, it could literally be almost anyone, especially this season where we don't have any clue what rosters will look like.  I'd say the LEC is equally quixotic and RIC has as much chance as anyone.

WashU counts as selected, I think.  Those top four teams, I think, are pretty solid.  I could see one of the others breaking into the Top 4, but an outsider getting into the Top 3 is pretty far fetched.  As for the CC - I think there's just no real consensus as to who the "surprise" team might be.  In a league that large, with so many options, who would you really pick?  It would be a far bigger flyer than most other conferences.  I think the GNAC is similar - a couple teams at the top and them a whole bunch of question marks.

Wash U counts, regardless if WUPHF gets a FA team in or not. So if the Bears finish in the top 3, those points will count. Emory will not move up to #1 and 5 pts if Wash U finishes 1st. Single round robin conferences are hard to figure out.

As for NESCAC, Midd graduated 70/83 PPG including two all-league guys, without obvious replacements among underclassmen.  Almost everyone save for Midd has fifth-year seniors, but Midd has none.  They will be a very green squad. 

Tufts is loaded and widely considered the class of the league this year, but after that there is a lot of uncertainty (three coaches debuting next year plus like everyone two new classes). Amherst and Williams should both be very strong with Colby, Trinity and Wesleyan all in the conversation too.

I'm intrigued by RIC because they started three frosh and a sophomore and have the last two LEC ROYs.  Very strong coach too.  They should be drastically improved.  Loads of uncertainty in that league I think UMD is the favorite but Eastern Conn, Keene and others are right there.

[Greek Tragedy]

Just a quick side note. Because of the uncertainty of rosters mostly due to Covid (transfers, extra year of eligibility etc), I am allowing adds and drops up to the beginning of the regular season. Rosters will be frozen afterwards.

[Baldini]

Are trades allowed before the start of the season? If so, I doubled down with Anderson and Transylvania in the HCAC and could possibly trade one for a school in a conference I do not currently have a team in. Food for thought.   

[Greek Tragedy]

Yeah. Trades are allowed.

[TheOsprey]

Yeah. Trades are allowed.

Trades are allowed all season, are they not Greek?🤔

I sent you a trade proposal Baldini. Let me know if you got it. Thanks.

No. Not in this league.
