Damn! When I finally signed up in the other thread, I was about to also write how I've watched very little college ball this year and had no idea how my bracket would shake out, and would need to do heavy research to prepare.

Give me a few mins.

2. Nick Johnson Arizona

Hey, sorry for holding up the group. Will work on a list later this morning.

1.3 Russ Smith, Louisville

I'll PM Marmel. Karl will get the same treatment as I gave his fellow West Coaster CR in the other draft--whenever he shows up and picks, he'll be in that slot for the whole draft.

S. Wilbekin, Florida

Melvin Ejim, Iowa State

for ntndeacon:

Jabari Parker, Duke

Zinto's up with Karl still yet to check in.

Zinto, if you beat Karl to the thread, don't go around the horn. I'll give Karl a couple hours to pick at 1.8 and 2.1 once you pick at 1.7.

That's a steal! PMing Karl again.

I almost took him first.

I don't ever remember a year where Karl didn't backfill his roster.

I am excited he fell all the way to me

which means ZInto is now up

oops I didnt see Karl was in the thread!. pik away :)

Zinto McDermott was the other name on my list. I was shocked that both made it that far down too!

Yeah both were great at the end of the first round.

from Zinto:

2.2 Gary Harris, Michigan State

Damn! I always forget about the quick turnaround. I'll take Nick Stauskas, Michigan. And Casey Prather, Florida

The other two players on my list:)

Tyler Haws, BYU

A. Gordon, Arizona

Frank Kaminsky - Wisky

Treveon Graham-VCU I believe in the coaching

Logan's up on the turn and due @ 10am. In reality, I have meetings in the 9-11 CST period, so you guys might have to police yourselves a bit.

2.8 Rodney Hood - Duke
3.1 Montrezl Harrell - Louisville

PMing steve

Langston Galloway-St Joes. (10+)

We are getting our asses kicked by Game A

Grr, was hoping one of the guys Logan picked would fall.

Michael Frazier II - Gators

M. Brogdon, Virginia

Marcus Smart, Oklahoma State

Xavier Thames, San Diego State
Jordan Adams, UCLA

Considering I grabbed him at 2.6, I'm thinking/hoping this is a bargain. :)

I am hoping so too. I have liked the value of all of my picks so far.

I almost took Early at 3.1

Sean Kilpatrick, Cincinnati

R. Baker, Wichita State

A couple list picks:

4.6 - hoopsguy - Adreian Payne, Michigan State
4.7 - stevew - Julius Randle, Kentucky

PMing Logan for his turn picks, and hoping ntndeacon catches up to backfill.

Sweet!

I was going to take Payne here...picking shortly.

James Bell Villanova

Dipping back into the list for hoops:

5.3 Tyler Ennis, Syracuse

K. Tarczewski, Arizona

Dwayne Evans, Saint Louis

Cameron Bairstow, New Mexico
Bryce Cotton, Providence (10+)

basically NTN, YD, and me can all pick anyone(I'm assuming it won't be a 10+) and then the other remaining people all need to pick a 10+ So theoretically NTN can pick now and YD can pick immediately after I can pick after him, right?

You can jump ahead of Marmel and hoopsguy to draft a guy from a single-digit seed. Any other jumping would be contingent on NTN and YD not taking double-digit guys, though they have the right (not an obligation).

I think I miscounted the 10+ players that still needed to be picked. I sent a list of 4, see two picked, and two more coming before me...

Keith Appling, Michigan State

Yeah, I'm keeping tabs on your list, too. I can let you know if you need to choose another guy.

J. Sibert, Dayton (10+)

JayVaughhn Pinkston Villanova.

from Logan's list:

6.8 Terran Petteway, Nebraska

Still waiting on hoops' 10+ pick.

Sorry for being AWOL today; change of firewall policies at a client.

Britrock, rude to take my Nebraska pick earlier tonight :(

10+ Taylor Braun, North Dakota State

Sorry 'bout it. Figured that might be a call to action.
