that's great, a bunch of those guys have been picked.


Why don't you stick to posting your usual nonsense and leave the posting of actual information to one of our many nerds who frequent the board.
 
Here's what the snake draft order looks like:

Here's top 10 available players. Honestly, though, at this point, it'll be very hard to find an All-American. I wouldn't follow the rankings that closely at this point. There might be 1 or 2 out there left that has a crazy breakout season.

My own personal evaluations were roughly similar to these for the first 3-4 rounds. But after that, it's vastly different. We're now talking about guys that might be HM All-American... or 2nd Team All-Conference... or miss an award altogether.

The Almanac
33. Kyle Filipowski, Duke (Mark Mitchell is on the 1st Team over him in practice)
48. PJ Hall, Clemson (knee cap injury, not 100% yet)
50. Isaiah Stevens, Colorado State (foot injury, not season-ending, out for 1-2 months?)
51. GG Jackson, South Carolina
52. Arthur Kaluma, Creighton
53. Anthony Black, Arkansas
54. Antoine Davis, Detroit
55. Marcus Carr, Texas
57. Jeremy Roach, Duke
59. Kel'el Ware, Oregon

Making the Madness
31. Javhon Quinerly, Alabama (ACL Injury. Might miss 1-2 months)
37. Johni Broome, Auburn
38. Kyle Filipowski (see above)
39. DeAndre Williams, Memphis
40. Isiahih Mosley, Missouri
41. Ryan Nembhard, Creighton
42. Amari Bailey, UCLA
43. Fardaws Aimaq, Texas Tech (Broken foot. Expected to miss several months)
45. Malachi Smith, Gonzaga
46. Cason Wallace, Kentucky
 
Damn, we’ve slowed to a crawl. We might be done by Christmas!

Yeah, it's painfully slow this year. Not a single person has used the full 24 hours, but quite a few have gone 20+ hours.

We really got to speed things up. Starting with Round 6, the draft clock will be reduced to 16 hours.

We're now at the stage of the draft where your top available players are much, much less likely to be stolen. If you feel like you're going to be out for most of the day, and your pick is coming up soon, please send me a private message of your top 5 or 10.

first time long time, it's just brutal.

Nothing is as embarrassing as Wyoming's campfire photo shoot.

Last year moved so much better. I get it, we aren’t always at our computers checking the site, but tomorrow makes it 5 days between picks for me. Just seems excessive.

5 days? I last made a pick on Monday and there are still 5 more people before I pick again.
 
if i was either end i feel like i could take a vacation. being stuck in the middle I feel obligated to watch.

 
Why don't you all just make top 150 pick lists and sort them by draft order to see who gets who. It's not like anyone is ever forming an actual team or anything. They are just award chasing.
 
I'll take Mike Dunleavy-lite...
Drew Peterson, USC

Marcus Carr, Texas.

@dukedevilz finally didn’t take my pick. Reaching the part of the draft where there is very little separation between preferred players.

@duckboy33, you’re up.
 
I took some safer picks earlier. I’ll really swing for the fences here. I’ve wanted this guy since the start and don’t want to let 4 more picks go and not grab him.

Malachi Smith, Gonzaga. This guy was absurd at Chattanooga and got 7.5(!) winshares. Gonzaga will definitely win games, and defenses should be less focused on him.

@WojoRising is up

Jeremy Roach, Duke. Guy predicted to be first team ACC still available.

Welcome back to the bandwagon.

Marcus Carr, Texas.

@duckboy33, you’re up.

Agreed. I was looking at probably close to 20 different guys during these past few days. At this point there aren't a whole lot of obvious choses. Lots of guys are very, very close.
 
You and @dukedevilz really took the two guys I was trying to decide between 😂 . Give me a few minutes to figure it out

Hah I'm always a threat to take a Pac-12 guy... mostly because not a whole of people are taking them.

I guess I'm going to go with Isiaih Mosley - Missouri

@MGC_07 is up

Don't quote me on this, but I think I heard recently that Mosley is only 1 of 2 players ever to average 20+ ppg - and be in the 50-40-90 club. I might have the time frame off, maybe it was only the past 20 years? Either way, very rare company. It will be interesting to see how he transitions to the SEC.

Very similar to Isiaih Mosley. Dominant player in a mid-major that's moving up (I think I had him in my top 40 players last year). I think he's capable of being Gonzaga's #2 player, but would probably lean towards Strawther holding onto that mantle.

Yeah, I’m not expecting huge things but I think at minimum he’s going to get winshares and I feel good about all conference selection. But if things go well, they go very well. 2nd best player at Gonzaga means AA in a lot of years.

He also banged Christian Braun’s mom. True story, look it up.
 
Okay, we're now in Round 6! We're going to start operating on a 16-hour clock. We've got two weeks to complete this. I've private messaged a few of you to send me a top 5/10 list. If you feel like you might be out for an extended period of time, please let me know and I'll send you a private message, as well.
