8th Annual College Basketball Draft

yea, it sucks when you love college basketball, post a lot about college basketball, get all geared up to impress everyone with your knowledge in the fantasy draft and then all your picks are met with crickets and tumbleweed. Getting praise from @dukedevilz is like getting a handshake from Paul Hollywood on Great British Bakeoff.

Hahahaha you guys are wild. My opinion really isn't that important.

There was that one year where DD picked after me and I made 3 or 4 picks that he said he was mad I made before he could get the player.
To this day, when my wife asks me what I'm thinking about when we're having sex I have to make something up really quick cause the truth would not end well for me.

This makes a lot of sense, actually. In fact, I'm getting slightly aroused just thinking about some of my past teams.
 
I get too interested in reading up on players to pick and them get pissed when I have to wait so long.
I like to wait till it’s like 2 hours till my time expires and then doing some half ass research for 10 minutes before making what will most likely be a terrible selection.

I use more play clock than Peyton Manning over center

So that's your secret for mediocrity, huh?

Current draft results...

1st Round
1. Hunter Dickinson, Kansas
2. Cooper Flagg, Duke
3. RJ Davis, North Carolina
4. Mark Sears, Alabama
5. Johni Broome, Auburn
6. Ryan Kalkbrenner, Creighton
7. Kam Jones, Marquette
8. Kadary Richmond, St. John's
9. Caleb Love, Arizona
10. Alex Karaban, UConn

2nd Round
11. Oumar Ballo, Indiana
12. LJ Cryer, Houston
13. Tamin Lipsey, Iowa State
14. Ryan Nembhard, Gonzaga
15. Wade Taylor, Texas A&M
16. Braden Smith, Purdue
17. Hunter Sallis, Wake Forest


Also, just as a reminder, 1st Team All-Conference is bumping up to 5 points this season for conferences with 4 teams in the top 50. I felt the need to give more value for the elite conferences, especially when the total number all-conference selections from power leagues is being reduced from 90 to 75 players.

Conference with 4 schools in the top 50: 5 points for 1st Team All-Conference
Conference with 4 schools in the top 100: 4 points for 1st Team All-Conference
Conference with 4 schools in the top 150: 3 points for 1st Team All-Conference
All Other conferences: 2 points for 1st Team All-Conference

Here's how that might look with the current BartTorvik projections
Conferences with 4 schools in the top 50 (5 points): ACC, Big East, Big 12, Big Ten, SEC
Conferences with 4 schools in the top 100 (4 points): A10, AAC, MWC, WCC
Conferences with 4 schools in the top 150 (3 points): C-USA, MVC
All Other Conferences (2 points): 20 leagues
 
schedule a vasectomy, hopefully watching the final four on the couch with a bag of ice.

Which size?

@dukedevilz can you post links to those top 100 lists? I'd like to read the writeups on the players.

Busting Brackets
Three Man Weave

The link for Three Man Weave won't be super helpful, however, unless you pay for the subscription, which I believe is $6 a month. I haven't come across any other top 100/150 lists, but I imagine there will be more coming out later this month. I'll publish them whenever I come across them.
 
By the time I finish this sentence, your time is expired.

It's 24 hours from the previous selection. Basically noon.... might go to 12-hour clock for the latter rounds, if we need to expedite the draft. But, 24 hour clock for now.
perfect, gives me time to take a look at this when I get to the office in the morning.

Solid. Most are expecting him to be Baylor go-to scorer. I can see the value, for sure.

Seems like Baylor has become a college guard factory in past 5 years. And the last two freshman guards they brought in both thrived. The difference is that both Walter and George had to deal with AA veteran guards in the same backcourt, whereas Edgecombe only has to deal with Roach. Roach is a very good player, but doesn't really command a huge offensive workload unlike past Baylor veteran guards. Could be a big year for Edge.
 
Seems like Lurker has made some terrible picks. Hunter over Flagg? Osber and Omir over Edgecombe and several others who could've been picked.

It's almost like I had the #1 pick without having to have the #1 pick.

Same! I took him in the 2022-23 draft in Round 8 or 9. That didn't pan out well, either. Fortunately, it wasn't a 2nd round pick :)

I have no idea who Duke's 2nd best player will be this season - I just don't think it will be Proctor.

It would take a real dick to draft him ahead of you.

Came to the right place.

I"m terrible at this, I think I came in last every time.
