I know he is better than what we had on the roster, but worried if he is really better enough for us to make a huge jump this year. He needs to be really damn good for us to have a shot at the tournament. i think the freshman and Graves will be better than advertised overall. That said, Henriquez is going to have to take a pretty dramatic jump over past production for that big leap to occur. The same is true, to lesser extent, with Foreman.

And the biggest jump is usually soph to Jr year. Additionally he had an extra year to practice in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

615Billiken Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 I have added the latest people to have requested to join to the list. Don't hesitate to correct me or send me a PM if I forgot your name. Please review the rules as there have been slight adjustments as we gear up to begin tomorrow. Since we have 32 people who joined, I have decided to extend the NCAA tournament berths to the top 10 places rather than the top 5. More people joined than I anticipated, which is a good thing. Along with this rule change, there has been a change to the extra point system going into the tournament. Please Review. I think having 10 NCAA spots will keep more people engaged later in the season and make it more fun. Additionally, I decided to make SLU games count for 2 points rather than the standard 1 point per correct game. You predict the correct winner of the SLU game, you get points. This was an idea from @Cowboy . This isn't rue by committee because that can get unwieldy, but I am certainly open to suggestions like these. This is our league, and I want it to improve year after year and reflect what the message board wants. I don't anticipate any rule changes after this since the season starts tomorrow. Unless we run into some major loophole during the season I didn't think through, I don' want to make additional changes this year. Round 1 submissions close tomorrow at the first tip off (Schedule at 6:00pm CST). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality Is Job 1 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 @615Billiken, because the Round 2 St. Bonaventure game against Maryland-Eastern Shore was rescheduled for today (not included in Round 3), will you be counting that game towards Round 2?

615Billiken Posted December 8, 2017 Author Share Posted December 8, 2017 Hello All, A bit of housekeeping: Round 6 will be posted shortly (tonight). I am in the midst of tallying up Round 5, and will have it post it this weekend I hope. I will also be posting how many points are possible as @Quality Is Job 1 suggested. It is a good idea. Once again, I apologize for the obvious delays. The last few weeks of the semester of my first year of grad school are kicking my butt more than I anticipated, and thus I have been a bit behind.
