Trey Calvin, Wright State

A little surprised more than one Wright State guy was picked, but both guys should get a lot of usage and be all conference.

@lurkeraspect84 you’re up and out of pre-picked players.

Thought I'd take a chance on Holden. He averaged 20 the year before last at Wright before disappearing last year at Ohio St. Could have a big year returning to a Mid.

Looking at about 6-7 guys for my last pick. I wonder how many of them will go unselected.

The clock is still going to be 12 hours for these last two picks of Round 11.

But, I'm going to reduce it to 6 hours for the final round. Feel free to draft up until Sunday at 1 p.m. After that, I'll need your submissions to complete the draft (if we haven't gotten that far). Only 13 picks left, so there's a chance we could complete this before Sunday afternoon.

Probably most of them, I'd imagine. Opinions vary wildly when you get to this late in the draft.

I feel like there's still a couple of 1st Team All-Conference performers available from power leagues. Just don't know who those guys are. SEC could definitely be one of those leagues. Outside of Wade Taylor, I'm not sure the SEC has any locks for 1st Team.

@WeAreDePaul is on the clock until 9:02 pm Eastern/ 8:02 pm Central for back-to-back picks. After that, the clock will be going down to 6 hours for the final round.
 
Tramon Mark/Arkansas (you're all dummies for not picking him during the past 4 rounds)
Hunter Sallis/WF (ditto)

how does that work if you copy a photo from a website and save it to your photos? This is on my phone.

It's easier to just use a photo from a website. All you need to do is copy and paste that URL.

I use screenshots all the time, but I can't just upload photos or screenshots from my computer (or phone) to rivals. They only work with URLs. So, an alternative would be to use an image sharing website, where you upload your photos to the site. Then you right-click on the photo and open it in a new window. And there you'll find your URL.

I use imgbb.com to upload all the screenshots that I use for rivals. Then I copy and paste the URL into the image icon.

Edit: don't let the payment options scare you away from imgbb.com. I have 542 uploads on my account and I still haven't even sniffed the maximum allowable data before I'd have to purchase any sort of plan.

El Ellis - arkansas

Can we get a free agent post draft pick?

You can, provided you cut one of your other 12 players - and you do so before the start of the season. You've got about 48 hours to make a supplemental pick (post draft) and drop someone else. We've done this a couple times in the past when player that was already drafted suffered a serious injury. Only 9 players will count towards scoring; I'll ask everyone to cut their three least productive players around Mid-late February.

This draft is meant to see who can most accurately project which players will perform well before the season starts. It's not meant to be like a typical fantasy draft where we drop and add players throughout the year.

@Necessary Roughness is on the clock

I know he’s injured and I’m not sure when he’ll be back, but I’ll take a flyer on him this late in the draft.

Zakai Zeigler, UT

He gets win shares on both sides of the ball and I just like his game. Hope he isn’t on the sidelines for too long.

@boilerzz you’re on the clock.

Well, 3 of my 7 got taken. Boswell, Goldin and the guy I was going to take….Ziegler. I think he’s got the best remaining chance of a P6 1st team nod.

So I’m going to roll the dice on a guy who just became eligible today. I expect Aday Mara to be really, really good for Mick Cronin and UCLA.

I posted this earlier this morning. Here are all the draft selections following that statement. I stand by my statement. SEC is wide freaking open for making 1st Team. Just find it funny that 5 of the next 7 picks were SEC guys.

Antonio Reeves, Kentucky
Tramon Mark, Arkansas

Hunter Sallis, Wake Forest
El Ellis, Arkansas
Vlad Goldin, Florida Atlantic
Aaron Bradshaw, Kentucky
Zakai Zeigler, Tennessee

Aday Mara, UCLA

@GE Nole is on the clock. 6 hours.

I've been trying diligently this past week or two to study these newcomers for UCLA. Lots of intriguing prospects. The 4 international guys, Sebastian Mack, Devin Williams - and then there's Dylan Andrews, who was seldom used in his freshmen season, and Utah transfer, Lazar Stefanovic. All 8 of these guys have upside. One of them is going to break out; I suspect one of will be a top-10 player in the Pac-12. But, I feel absolutely clueless on what that guy is going to be.

Mara has the most upside. And I know Cronin has talked about playing Mara and Bona together; I just can't see it happening for long spurts. Neither one of them has range. So, Idk? Maybe Sebastian Mack or Jan Vide could be the breakout newbie?!

Yep. I think it’s going to be hard to keep Mara off the floor but Bona might limit his upside. Mara is a great passer so it might work.

Just feel like round 12 is when you shoot for the stars, Mara is a likely lottery pick and has potential to be an All-American if it breaks for him.

I like Berke B as the other potential breakout on that team But he still hasn’t been cleared.

Yeah, that makes sense. Might as well swing for the fences. Mara, for sure, has the biggest upside of the newcomers. If Bona and Mara are their two best players, it would be hard to keep them both off the floor. Cronin could make it work.

I actually think this UCLA team could be really good. I don't think it's out of the question for them to compete for a Pac-12 title, right alongside Arizona and USC. Just a lot of unknowns about the newcomers. From the footage I've seen, I really like all 4 of their international guys. And Sebastian Mack already showed his capabilities in the preseason game.

This is the second time in 3 years that you and I were next to each other in the draft and we always seem to step on each others picks. Crazy how that has worked out.

I really like Ziegler’s game. I had him last year too, and when I chose him I said “this might be a year early.” If it weren’t for the injury I think he would have been taken earlier.
