College Basketball Draft

[dukedevilz]

Is anyone interested in participating in a College Basketball Draft? The scoring system would be based on win shares and postseason accolades. We would have 10 rounds, but we're going to ask owners to lock in on 8 players for scoring purposes. The last two rounds afford a little bit of insurance in case of an injury or suspension.

I posted this on the main rivals board, and we already have 8 people committed for the basketball draft. I'm looking for at least two more owners - but I wouldn't be opposed to having 12+ owners. If you want to join the league, just mention so on the linked thread. Thanks!

I would do it.

 

[dukedevilz]

I would do it.

Awesome. Do you ever use the main board?

I went ahead and tagged you in the draft thread on the main board. I'm going to wait a little bit before starting the actual draft, just to make sure we don't have any uncertainty or lingering questions on drafting, the scoring system, etc... The general guidelines should be on that thread. And a linked a couple of top 50/100 college basketball rankings on that thread as well.

 

[jwill133]

I'll probably create a new thread for the draft, and I'll tag you in it... Follow the link and it should provide a lot of the general guidelines. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.

I'm getting an error message on the main board. "As a free user, there is a limit to how many messages you can post at once. Please wait a while and try again or pay for a subscription!"

I'll take RJ Barrett.

I've received those notifications in the past, too. Not sure why they happen. But I'll contact a moderator. They're usually pretty good about correcting it. And I'll go ahead and announce your draft selection. I'm pretty sure once you receive that notification, you're locked out for 24 hours.

Good pick, btw. I'm surprised RJ Barrett, the consensus #1 recruit, fell that far down, to be honest.

Lol assumed he would be gone, didn't take much thought to make that selection. Would of gone Zion if RJ wasn't available, shocked Zion got drafted before RJ.

Luke Maye still on the board.....now I get to sit back and enjoy my RJ pick over Maye.

Weird. Let me see if I can get a hold of another administrator. I'll go ahead and select Langford for you.

Hey jwill, your pick has been up for more than 24 hours, which means other owners can now skip in front of you. Just want you to be aware of that. Thanks.

 

[jwill133]

Lol thanks for the update. Sorry yesterday I was travelling all day.
Went Jontay Porter.

 

[dukedevilz]

No worries! And good pick.

Got it. Pick has been made.

You're on deck. Good chance you'll have the chance to draft a player today.

 

[dukedevilz]

@jwill133 the guy in front of you is close to using all of his 24 hour clock. You can step in ahead of him at 5 pm Eastern and make your selection.

Do you check the main board regularly enough? I don't mind notifying you here, however, if that's easier for you.

Thanks man. I do occasionally, but not very often, the reminders are great.

You're up again.

 

[dukedevilz]

@jwill133 alright, you're up for your final pick.

 

[dukedevilz]

@jwill133 alright, you're up for your final pick.

Any interest in doing the draft again this year? Also, this is open to anyone else on the board.

Did you ever see the results from last season? I forget you don't come on the main board often. Here were the results from the past season. You came in 5th out of 12 teams. Double-click on the screenshots to enlarge.

Hey yes I'd do the draft again. It's always a lot of fun to follow how the players I pick are doing.

 

[dukedevilz]

K. Here is the initial thread. Probably won't start drafting til next week. It will be reverse alphabetical order this year.

 

[dukedevilz]

@jwill133

Alright, you're up with the 3rd pick. Luka Garza and Jared Butler went 1 and 2, respectively. Here's the draft thread.

 

[dukedevilz]

@jwill133 you're on the clock again for your 2nd Round Pick.

 

[hailtoyourvictor]

You're on the clock

 

[dukedevilz]

You're on the clock

Is Duke your backup school?

@jwill133 One guy already skipped ahead of you. If one more guy passes you in the order, you would then have back-to-back picks. Either way, you can expect to be able to make two picks in a short time period.

 

[dukedevilz]

@jwill133 you're now on the clock for Round 4.

 

[dukedevilz]

Haha the snake draft is fun. It's staring back at you again @jwill133

 

[dukedevilz]

@jwill133 6th Round Pick is now on the clock.

 

[dukedevilz]

@jwill133 and now you're up for Round 7.
