March 7-13, 2022

Just 1 feature game when all the conference tournaments were said and done this week, and it was in the Big East.

3/11/22- Big East Semifinals- (3) Georgetown (Ariel Ginsberg, Jawouk Bafou) vs. (2) #1 Pittsburgh (Qwikshot Collins) -- Judging by the score in this one, you'd have guaranteed it went into overtime, but it didn't. It was just a really high scoring game. And a tightly called game, as the teams combined to shoot 72 free throws, with the Hoyas shooting 47 of them. Crazy! That help the Hoyas get a big win and advance to the Big East Championship.

Final Score: (3) Georgetown- 104, (2) #1 Pittsburgh- 101

Ariel Ginsberg (Georgetown)- DNP (injured)
Jawouk Bafou (Georgetown)- started game, 31 mins played, 13 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 blocks.
Qwikshot Collins (Pittsburgh)- started game, 20 mins played, 17 points, 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal.

Now for the rest of the weekly recap:

RS SR PG Benton Gale (High Point) -- 17-14, 12-6 Big South.

No games this week for Benton and the Panthers, who played their conference tournament last week and are waiting to see if they might somehow snag a postseason berth.

RS SR PF Bam Jamison (Grambling) -- 20-10, 14-4 SWAC.

3/10/22- SWAC Quarterfinals vs. (7) Texas Southern (L 56-52), came off bench, 13 mins played, 2 rebounds, 1 block.

Tough loss for Bam and the Tigers in this one. You'd like to think the 20 win season will give Bam a chance to extend his college career, but I don't know.

SR C Ariel Ginsberg (Georgetown)- injured -- 22-11, 12-6 Big East.

3/10/22- Big East Quarterfinals vs. (14) Villanova (W 81-71).
3/11/22- Big East Semifinals vs. (2) #1 Pittsburgh- feature game, highlighted above.
3/12/22- Big East Championship vs. (4) Cincinnati (W 87-79).

All Ariel can do is sit and watch, as his season and college career are officially over. With still being projected out a month, there's no way he could possibly come back and play in a postseason game, unless a miracle happens.

SR SG Thomas Magnum (Marshall) -- 14-17, 8-8 Conference USA.

3/9/22- Conference USA First Round vs. (10) ECU (W 75-63), started game, 33 mins played, 21 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist, (POTG).
3/10/22- Conference USA Quarterfinals vs. (2) Kent State (L 61-60), started game, 29 mins played, 15 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals.

Thomas had a good conference tournament, getting POTG once. His college career is over as Marshall will not be playing in the postseason.

RS JR SG Qwikshot Collins (#1 Pittsburgh) -- 25-6, 14-4 Big East.

3/10/22- Big East Quarterfinals vs. (7) West Virginia (W 79-63), started game, 22 mins played, 9 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal.
3/11/22- Big East Semifinals vs. (3) Georgetown- feature game, highlighted above.

Qwikshot had a pretty solid week, but he battled foul trouble, getting 4 fouls in each game. The Panthers will be going dancing.

RS JR PG Mike Schaplowsky (Kansas State) -- 13-20, 2-14 Big 12.

3/9/22- Big 12 First Round vs. (5) Iowa State (W 88-68), came off bench, 24 mins played, 3 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 steal.
3/10/22- Big 12 Quarterfinals vs. (4) Texas Tech (W 85-70), came off bench, 20 mins played, 8 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal.
3/11/22- Big 12 Semifinals vs. (1) #7 Texas (L 89-84), came off bench, 24 mins played, 12 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal.

Kansas State was just 2 wins away from completely busting somebody's bubble, and Mike was a big part of that off the bench. He had solid numbers off the bench, and gives both he and the Wildcats something to build on next season.

RS JR PF Path Twelve (Oregon) -- 15-16, 6-12 Pac 10.

3/9/22- Pac 10 First Round vs. (9) Washington (L 64-63), started game, 36 mins played, 14 points, 4 rebounds.

Not the best game for Path, as he battled foul trouble. He still played the most minutes of anybody, which means he did a good job not committing that 5th foul. But playing with 4 most of the game meant he couldn't be aggressive on the boards. Path will look ahead to his senior year, as it's highly unlikely he will go pro. Oregon's season is over.

JR SG Cameron Blodgett (#10 Duke) -- 26-6, 12-4 ACC.

3/11/22- ACC Quarterfinals vs. (7) Clemson (W 77-64), started game, 35 mins played, 25 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals, (POTG).
3/12/22- ACC Semifinals vs. (6) Virginia (W 78-75), started game, 36 mins played, 8 points, 4 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 steals.
3/13/22- ACC Championship vs. (4) #19 Boston College (W 74-56), started game, 35 mins played, 23 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, (POTG).

What a week, what an ACC Tournament for Cameron. He was POTG twice, averaged about 18 points a game, and really led the team straight into the NCAA Tournament.

JR PG Jackson Pace (Purdue) -- 23-9, 14-4 Big Ten.

3/11/22- Big Ten Quarterfinals vs. (8) Iowa (W 77-60), started game, 32 mins played, 22 points, 2 rebounds, 8 assists.
3/12/22- Big Ten Semifinals vs. (4) Ohio State (W 100-84), started game, 34 mins played, 23 points, 4 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal, (POTG).
3/13/22- Big Ten Championship vs. (6) Michigan State (W 91-88), started game, 34 mins played, 28 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal, (POTG).

As good as Cameron Blodgett was in the ACC Tournament, Jackson Pace was just as good, if not better, in the Big Ten Tournament. He also picked up 2 POTG awards and averaged 24 points a game as well as just over 7 assists. Purdue has had a heck of a season, and Jackson hopes to lead them far into the NCAA Tournament.

JR PF Jawouk Bafou (Georgetown)- injured -- 22-11, 12-6 Big East.

3/10/22- Big East Quarterfinals vs. (14) Villanova (W 81-71), started game, 20 mins played, 15 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal.
3/11/22- Big East Semifinals vs. (2) #1 Pittsburgh- feature game, highlighted above.
3/12/22- Big East Championship vs. (4) Cincinnati (W 87-79), started game, 29 mins played, 11 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists.

With Ariel out, it looks like Jawouk will be starting in his place in the postseason. He had decent numbers in the conference tournament. Not great, but solid.

JR C Tim Sheppard (#20 Mississippi State) -- 22-9, 10-6 SEC.

3/11/22- SEC Quarterfinals vs. (7) Georgia (L 78-72), started game, 5 mins played, 4 points, 1 rebound, (left with injury).

Bad news for Tim, as he left the SEC Quarterfinal game very early, due to a bruised jaw. He took an elbow from a teammate fighting for a loose ball, and did not return. He's day to day, so fortunately, he should be good to go for the NCAA Tournament, which the Bulldogs should be playing in, without a doubt.

RS SO PF Erik Flamebeard (#4 North Carolina) -- 27-5, 14-2 ACC.

3/11/22- ACC Quarterfinals vs. (9) Wake Forest (L 70-64), came off bench, 15 mins played, 6 points, 7 rebounds, 1 block.

Not a bad game off the bench for Erik, and he'll get a chance to see some big time postseason action as the Tarheels will be dancing.

2022 Selection Sunday

Pittsburgh (Qwikshot Collins) gets the 2nd seed in the NCAA West Region and will open up against (15) Montana State.

Purdue (Jackson Pace) gets the 6th seed in the NCAA Midwest Region and will open up against (11) Cincinnati.

Duke (Cameron Blodgett) gets the top seed in the NCAA South Region and will open up against the First Four winner between Georgia and Radford. Georgia in the First Four, as the right to get a 16 seed? Are you serious?

Mississippi State (Tim Sheppard) gets the 7th seed in the NCAA South Region and will open up against (10) George Mason.

North Carolina (Erik Flamebeard) gets the 2nd seed in the NCAA East Region and will open up against (15) Princeton.

Georgetown (Ariel Ginsberg, Jawouk Bafou) gets the 6th seed in the NCAA East Region and will open up against (11) Utah.

Grambling (Bam Jamison) gets the 10th seed in the CBI and will open up by travelling to (7) Arkansas-Little Rock.

That's it for our FOFC players that will be playing in the postseason. Kind of figured Benton Gale wouldn't get a chance to extend his college career.

Nice to see 7 of our 11 FOFC represented teams playing in a postseason tournament though.

FOFC Postseason Recap

7 of our FOFC represented teams made the postseason, and there were no feature games. Let's take a look at how things shaped out for all our teams and players.

RS SR PF Bam Jamison (Grambling)

3/15/22- CBI First Round at (7) Arkansas-Little Rock (W 71-62), came off bench, 16 mins played, 9 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks, 1 steal, (POTG).
3/21/22- CBI Quarterfinals vs. (15) Canisius (W 68-58), came off bench, 15 mins played, 2 points, 2 rebounds, 1 block, 1 steal.
3/23/22- CBI Semifinals vs. (11) Santa Clara (W 57-55), came off bench, 14 mins played, 8 points, 1 rebound
3/28/22- CBI Championship Series, Game 1 at (1) Old Dominion (L 84-57), came off bench, 16 mins played, 6 points, 2 rebounds, 2 steals.
3/30/22- CBI Championship Series, Game 2 vs. (1) Old Dominion (L 58-45), came off bench, 16 mins played, 4 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist.

Bam ends his college career with a bit of a bang, getting just his 2nd POTG award of his career. The Tigers far exceeded expectations this season and will now look to the future without Bam. As for Mr. Jamison, he has a long road ahead of him if he wants to play professionally. He wasn't even a starter for a lower college team. He will almost certainly go undrafted and it could be a while before he gets picked up, if he even does.

SR C Ariel Ginsberg (Georgetown)- injured

3/17/22- NCAA East Region First Round vs. (11) Utah (L 77-68).
3/19/22- NCAA East Region Second Round vs. (3) Arizona (L 108-81).

Ariel had a tough time watching as his college career wound down with a blowout loss to Arizona. He'll now look ahead to the NBA draft, where he is expected to go undrafted, but isn't expected to remain without a team for long.

RS JR SG Qwikshot Collins (Pittsburgh)

3/17/22- NCAA West Region First Round vs. (15) Montana State (W 68-44), started game, 35 mins played, 10 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals, (Double-double).
3/19/22- NCAA West Region Second Round vs. (10) Cal State Fullerton (W 88-77, OT), started game, 40 mins played, 15 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal.
3/24/22- NCAA West Region Semifinal vs. (6) Florida (L 86-70), started game, 14 mins played, 3 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists.

Not the kind of game Qwikshot wanted to finish his junior season on, as Pitt goes home earlier than expected. Qwikshot has already declared for the draft, so he'll be leaving Pitt with a bit of a sour taste in his mouth.

JR SG Cameron Blodgett (Duke)

3/18/22- NCAA South Region First Round vs. (16) Georgia (W 80-54), started game, 34 mins played, 18 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 steals.
3/20/22- NCAA South Region Second Round vs. (8) Wisconsin (L 86-80), started game, 32 mins played, 23 points, 1 rebound, 8 assists, 2 steals.

The Blue Devils are going home way earlier than expected, but you can't blame Cameron for that. He did his part with a couple solid games. He's going to the draft where he is expected to be a lottery pick.

JR PG Jackson Pace (Purdue)

3/18/22- NCAA Midwest Region First Round vs. (11) Cincinnati (L 87-81), started game, 33 mins played, 24 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal.

Nice game for Jackson to end his junior season. Purdue had a heck of a season, much better than expected. Apparently Jackson sees big things next season as he's announced his intent to return for his senior year.

JR PF Jawouk Bafou (Georgetown)

3/17/22- NCAA East Region First Round vs. (11) Utah (L 77-68), started game, 27 mins played, 12 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, (Double-double).
3/19/22- NCAA East Region Second Round vs. (3) Arizona (L 108-81), started game, 24 mins played, 10 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 4 blocks, (Double-double).

What an NCAA Tournament performance for Jawouk, with 2 double-doubles. Unfortunately, the team effort wasn't there against Arizona, but if Jawouk wants to come back for his senior season, we've definitely seen what he can do. He hasn't declared for the draft yet, and all indications are that he will definitely be coming back for his senior season.

JR C Tim Sheppard (Mississippi State)

3/18/22- NCAA South Region First Round vs. (10) George Mason (W 101-94), started game, 30 mins played, 16 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal.
3/20/22- NCAA South Second Round vs. (2) Louisville (W 81-74), started game, 30 mins played, 10 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block, 1 steal.
3/24/22- NCAA South Region Semifinal vs. (6) St. Joseph's (W 67-66), started game, 30 mins played, 6 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal.
3/22/26- NCAA South Region Final vs. (8) Wisconsin (L 82-67), started game, 29 mins played, 9 points, 12 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal.

Tim had a nice postseason, and Mississippi State probably went farther than most expected as they had an inconsistent regular season. Nobody would blame Tim if he declared for the draft, but as of now he hasn't. It looks like he will come back for his senior season as well.

RS SO PF Erik Flamebeard (North Carolina)

3/18/22- NCAA East Region First Round vs. (15) Princeton (W 94-70), came off bench, 16 mins played, 11 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal.
3/20/22- NCAA East Region Second Round vs. (7) Utah State (W 91-83), came off bench, 11 mins played, 4 points, 1 rebound.
3/25/22- NCAA East Region Semifinal vs. (3) Arizona (W 85-65), came off bench, 13 mins played, 3 points, 5 rebounds, 1 block.
3/27/22- NCAA East Region Final vs. (8) Kansas (L 73-63), came off bench, 14 mins played, 2 points, 3 rebounds.

Erik had a nice game in the First Round, but struggled a bit there. Go figure, it was Kansas that knocks out the Tarheels. Hopefully, with Erik having to come back as a junior, he'll be able to crack that starting lineup.

That does it for the postseason recap, in the next couple of days I'll get the college recap going, give career stats for the departing players, and get the pro season done.

bbgunn · 04-18-2016, 03:38 AM

Good to see Bam Jamison make the most of his second chance at Grambling and help get the Tigers to a tournament final. Even if he doesn't make the pros, he can hang his hat on that.

Pro Update for March 2022

2nd year PF Jace Hunter (Detroit Pistons)

The Pistons are 28-43, 3rd place in the Central Division. Jace had 1 lone game in March in which he didn't score in double figures, and 1 game in which he scored 11. In every other game, 16 was his low. He had 3 double-doubles: 27 points and 11 rebounds on the 10th against Sacramento, 33 points and 10 rebounds against Minnesota on the 18th, and 19 points, 10 rebounds, against Milwaukee on the 25th. Jace is still making a case for some awards at the end of the season.

2nd year PF Ivan Carrillo (Portland Trailblazers/Los Angeles D-Fenders)

Ivan continued to bounce around between the NBA and the D-League, starting the month in Portland and playing 3 games with the Blazers. In those 3 games, he logged 4 minutes of action. I'm not kidding. It was bad. Then Portland sent him back down to the D-League on the 18th, where he played in 4 games with the D-Fenders. He scored double figures in all of those games, including 36 and 35 point efforts in back to back games. The 36 points he scored against Iowa on the 22nd was a season high. Simply put, it looks like Ivan has a nice career developing.. in the D-League. Oh yea, records. Well, Portland is 31-41, good for 4th place in the Northwest Division, while in the D-League, Los Angeles D-Fenders are 31-13, tops in the Western Division.

Rookie SF Chester Smith (Ft. Wayne Mad Ants)

The Mad Ants are 26-16, good for 1st place in the Eastern Division. Chester played in 4 games in March, logging 2 minutes in 2 of the games, and getting more extended minutes in the other 2 games. His best line in March: The 11th against Texas in which he scored 3 points, had 2 rebounds and 3 assists, with 1 steal. Yea, Chester didn't do much at all this month, and he hasn't really done much since January.

Rookie PG Al Mighty (Utah Jazz)

The Jazz are 39-32, 2nd place in the Northwest Division. The Jazz are the only NBA team with an FOFC player that really has a chance to make the playoffs. Al appeared in all of the Jazz's games in March, and had a mid-march spurt of double figure games off the bench. He had 12 on the 17th against Portland, 16 on the 20th against Brooklyn, and 10 on the 21st against New Orleans. Those were his best March efforts, and his only double figure games in March.

Rookie SG Ricardo Tubbs (Maine Red Claws)

The Red Claws are 22-21 in the Eastern Division, 4th place. Good month for Ricardo, who set season and career highs in both points rebounds. He had a season/career high 22 points on the 8th against Rio Grand Valley. On the 6th against Sioux Falls, he had a season/career high 10 rebounds. He was pretty consistent scoring wise, with just 3 games in single figures. He had 1 double-double, going back to the game against Sioux Falls on the 6th, in which he added 14 points to go with those 10 rebounds.

Rookie C Rudy Arellano (Canton Charge)

The Charge are dead last in the Eastern Division with a 13-31 record. Rudy has done his part to help, as he pulled down 7 offensive rebounds on the 13th against Reno. This was both a career and season high. Also in that game against Reno he had 14 points, giving him a double-double. He added a double-double on the 2nd against Rio Grande Valley. Aside from a game on the 21st in which he only had 3 rebounds, all the rest of the month were 7 rebound or more games, so he's definitely doing his part on the boards.

Rookie SF Jack Dawkins (Houston Rockets)

The Rockets are 27-43, last place in the Midwest Division. Jack has been in and out of the starting lineup. He had a season and career high 5 assists on the 12th against the Clippers, and had 6 games of 11 or more points. His lone double-double was against Dallas on the 3rd, in which he had 11 points and 10 rebounds. He's also done a great job of not fouling this month. He had 3 fouls once, and the other games in March were either 0, 1, or 2 fouls. Well done!

Rookie C Ralph King (Indiana Pacers)

The Pacers are currently 25-46, 4th place in the Central Division. Ralph returned from injury on the 5th and was a mainstay off the bench again for the Pacers, averaging about 14 minutes a game. Unfortunately, that didn't translate to much scoring, as he only had double figure scoring 1 game in March. He actually has had a problem with foul trouble, as he committed 3 fouls or more in 6 games in March. Yikes! When you're playing limited minutes, that isn't good.

Rookie SG Jaybard Riley (Dallas Mavericks)

The Mavericks are 29-43, good for 3rd place in the Midwest Division. Jaybard has continued to impress, starting every game for Dallas in March. In fact, he's started every game so far in his young career. There were just 2 games in March in which he didn't score double digits, and those were just 6 point games. He flirted with a triple double on the 3rd against Houston, as he fell 2 rebounds and an assist shy. He also flirted with a triple-double on the 17th against Philadelphia, falling 1 rebound and 1 assist short. Turnovers were a bit of an issue though, as he set the kind of career high you don't want, committing 6 turnovers in that game against the 76ers on the 17th. He beat that number with 7 turnovers on the 21st against Denver. He'll be doing a lot of work on taking better care of the ball, and hopefully we see an improvement in April.

collegesportsfanms · 04-20-2016, 03:43 PM

Again guys, if someone wants to see anything added to the pro part of this dynasty, please let me know. I'm having no problems handling the monthly reports, and I will work on getting season stats involved at some point. For now though, if it's not too time consuming or difficult to add, if you have a request, bring it on

Travis · 04-20-2016, 05:03 PM

Looks good to me. Anxious to see how things progress and if the Pistons can start putting some wins together.

Neuqua · 04-20-2016, 05:23 PM

Just season stats periodically would be a good touch. I'm almost bummed Jaybard graduated because there aren't as many updates on him when this thread is bumped.

I will gladly make a spreadsheet for season stats, maybe monthly or bi-monthly, like I have been for the college players.

I would love to do a weekly recap on our pro guys like I do the college guys, but by the time all the college guys graduate, I'll probably have about 20 pro guys! I could do it, but it would be probably slower than it is now.

I'm not taking anymore sign-ups for the college part though, so when all those guys are gone, then it's all pro from there.

Pro Update for April 1-19 (end of regular season)

2nd year PF Jace Hunter (Detroit Pistons)

The Pistons finish their season at 33-49, finishing 3rd in the Central Division, and missing the playoffs by a wide margin. Even with the season he had, Jace didn't get any awards. He finished with a 21.2 point, 6.8 rebound average. Still a heck of a season for Jace though, and he should only get better. His rebounding is down a bit, but the scoring is up. His last 2 games of the season were both double-doubles: 25 points, 10 rebounds on the 19th vs. Minnesota, and 10 points, 10 rebounds on the 21st vs. Atlanta.

2nd year PF Ivan Carrillo (Portland Trailblazers/Los Angeles D-Fenders)

Ivan played in just 4 games in April, as he had a double-double with 14 points, 10 rebounds on the 6th against Reno. He was then called back up to the Trailblazers on the 10th, where he played in 2 games there, probably the last 2 games in a Blazer uniform as he is testing free agency in the offseason. As for standings, Portland finished 37-45, 4th place in the Northwest Division and missing the playoffs. The D-Fenders, on the other hand, finished with the best record in the NBDL at 34-16, winning the Western Division by 4 games and getting the top seed in the bottom half of the bracket. (In this, the NBDL has 8 teams make the playoffs, and has 2 separate brackets, seeding the teams 1-4. I admittedly have no idea if it is an Eastern Division/Western Division thing, how the teams are seeded, no idea. If someone has a clue, feel free to let me know.) Ivan is hoping to play in the playoffs with the D-Fenders.

Rookie SF Chester Smith (Ft. Wayne Mad Ants)

The Mad Ants finished at 29-21, 2nd place in the Eastern Division, getting the 3rd seed in the top half of the bracket. (The best I can figure, the 2 teams with the best records are the 1 seeds and placed in different halves of the bracket, 3rd and 4th best records as 2 seeds, and so on. That much I've figured out). Chester had his 2nd best game of the season against Reno on the 10th, logging 15 points and 7 rebounds. Other than that, he didn't do much. But, he is one of just a couple FOFCers that will see playoff action this season.

Rookie PG Al Mighty (Utah Jazz)

The Jazz finished 48-34, tying with Denver for 1st place in the Northwest Division. Not sure how they won the tiebreaker as they seem to have split with Denver in the regular season. Nevertheless, they will be the 2nd seed in the Western Conference, hosting 7th seed Oklahoma City in the Western Conference First Round. Al had a pretty good scoring month, as he hit double figures in 7 of the Jazz' 11 games, and having 6 assists twice.

Rookie SG Ricardo Tubbs (Maine Red Claws)

The Red Claws finished an even 25-25, 4th place in the Eastern Division and missing the playoffs. In their 7 games this month, Ricardo scored in double figures in 5 of them, having 22 points twice. He had 7 rebounds in 2 games, 6 rebounds in 3 games, and in the other 2 games he had 4 rebounds and 3 rebounds, so he was pretty consistent there. He has played well enough to get a look on an NBA roster next season, so let's see if he does.

Rookie C Rudy Arellano

Rudy is one of my created players when I didn't have too many sign-ups. Since then I've gotten a lot more sign-ups and would rather focus on everyone elses players. If anybody wants to see me continue to report on Rudy, I will, but I'm skipping him for this report.

Rookie SF Jack Dawkins (Houston Rockets)

The Rockets finished 33-49, tying with Dallas for 3rd place in the Midwest Division. They missed the playoffs. No double-doubles for Jack this month, as he scored double figures in only 5 of the Rockets' 12 games in April, with a month high 17 on the 9th against Phoenix. He did flirt with a double-double on the 20th against Cleveland, as he had 14 points and 8 rebounds. He has had a great start to his pro career and will look to build on it next season.

Rookie C Ralph King (Indiana Pacers)

The Pacers finished 29-53, tying for last place in the Central Division, and obviously missing the playoffs. Although his stats were way, way below all the other NBA 2nd teamers, Ralph somehow managed to be named to the NBA All-Rookie 2nd Team at the center position. Apparently, there must not have been a lot of strong rookie centers in the league this year. Taking nothing away from Ralph, but 6 PPG and 3.2 RPG a game don't really scream deserving a place on an All-anything team. But, congrats to Ralph for getting that award. He did finish the season off setting a career high in rebounds with 12 against Philadelphia, so that is something to build on for next season.

Rookie SG Jaybard Riley (Dallas Mavericks)

The Mavericks finished 33-49, tied for 3rd with Houston in the Midwest Division. Jaybard was named to the NBA All-Rookie 1st Team, a well deserved honor, and he was also named NBA Rookie of the Month for April. He scored in double figures in all of Dallas' games in April, with his low being 11 on the 13th against Milwaukee. He had 2 double-doubles: on the 15th against Miami, he had 22 points and 10 rebounds. He had a different kind of double-double on the 1st against Memphis, as he had 32 points and 11 assists. He's set the tone for next season, for sure.

collegesportsfanms · 04-23-2016, 05:24 PM

Here is a look at the final stats for the 2021-2022 season:

collegesportsfanms · 04-23-2016, 05:34 PM

In a bit of a surprise, only 2 of our 7 juniors have decided to declare for the draft, and those 2 are:

Qwikshot Collins (Pittsburgh)
Cameron Blodgett (Duke)

Those 2 leaving don't surprise me a bit. I'm also not surprised that Mike Schaplowsky, Path Twelve, and Jawouk Bafou are staying. I'm mildly surprised that Jackson Pace is staying, and I'm even more surprised that Tim Sheppard is staying. I had him pegged as a goner this offseason. So we have 6 departing FOFC college players, and attached is a look at their career stats.

collegesportsfanms · 04-23-2016, 06:02 PM

For whatever reason, I am having all kinds of trouble getting this draft file to import properly. I'm real close to giving up and scrapping the pro part of this dynasty. I have no idea what's going on, but for some reason, things just aren't working this time.

I'll take a step back and try again another day, unless someone with more knowledge can figure it out, cause it's really pissing me off.

collegesportsfanms · 04-29-2016, 12:17 PM

Guy, I have some good and bad news. The bad news is that I have lost this dynasty. I was saving the file last night when power went out. Now the file is corrupted and this dynasty is over. The good news is, I've decided to recreate the dynasty. Those that were set to be recruited in the next season, will be the first recruiting class of the new dynasty. And guts like Jaybard and everyone else that had gone pro have the chance to go back to college.

I will be starting a new sign-up thread today for season 2 recruits. I'll take 5 or 6 recruits for season 2. I haven't decided on if I'm going to include the pro game or not since I seem to be having so much trouble importing draft classes. If you have an opinion 1 way or another let me know. This will also help me determine if players can leave early or not.

So those recruits that were scheduled to be n the next season, look for that to start shortly.

rjolley · 04-29-2016, 02:29 PM

Hate to hear that, collegesportsfanms. This has been a great dynasty to follow.

I like the pro part of the dynasty, even if it's 3 or so updates a year, draft, all star break, and end of the season. However, the frustration of getting the 2 games to work together leads me to think the pro part should be dropped unless Brian can get a fix in place.

Brian Swartz · 04-29-2016, 02:38 PM

That sucks. I know how frustrating it can be to put this much effort into something and have it go *poof*.

Travis · 05-02-2016, 04:52 PM

collegesportsfanms Pro Rookie Join Date: Jan 2004	2022 Selection Sunday Pittsburgh (Qwikshot Collins) gets the 2nd seed in the NCAA West Region and will open up against (15) Montana State. Purdue (Jackson Pace) gets the 6th seed in the NCAA Midwest Region and will open up against (11) Cincinnati. Duke (Cameron Blodgett) gets the top seed in the NCAA South Region and will open up against the First Four winner between Georgia and Radford. Georgia in the First Four, as the right to get a 16 seed? Are you serious? Mississippi State (Tim Sheppard) gets the 7th seed in the NCAA South Region and will open up against (10) George Mason. North Carolina (Erik Flamebeard) gets the 2nd seed in the NCAA East Region and will open up against (15) Princeton. Georgetown (Ariel Ginsberg, Jawouk Bafou) gets the 6th seed in the NCAA East Region and will open up against (11) Utah. Grambling (Bam Jamison) gets the 10th seed in the CBI and will open up by travelling to (7) Arkansas-Little Rock. That's it for our FOFC players that will be playing in the postseason. Kind of figured Benton Gale wouldn't get a chance to extend his college career. Nice to see 7 of our 11 FOFC represented teams playing in a postseason tournament though.

collegesportsfanms Pro Rookie Join Date: Jan 2004	FOFC Postseason Recap 7 of our FOFC represented teams made the postseason, and there were no feature games. Let's take a look at how things shaped out for all our teams and players. RS SR PF Bam Jamison (Grambling) 3/15/22- CBI First Round at (7) Arkansas-Little Rock (W 71-62), came off bench, 16 mins played, 9 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 blocks, 1 steal, (POTG). 3/21/22- CBI Quarterfinals vs. (15) Canisius (W 68-58), came off bench, 15 mins played, 2 points, 2 rebounds, 1 block, 1 steal. 3/23/22- CBI Semifinals vs. (11) Santa Clara (W 57-55), came off bench, 14 mins played, 8 points, 1 rebound 3/28/22- CBI Championship Series, Game 1 at (1) Old Dominion (L 84-57), came off bench, 16 mins played, 6 points, 2 rebounds, 2 steals. 3/30/22- CBI Championship Series, Game 2 vs. (1) Old Dominion (L 58-45), came off bench, 16 mins played, 4 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist. Bam ends his college career with a bit of a bang, getting just his 2nd POTG award of his career. The Tigers far exceeded expectations this season and will now look to the future without Bam. As for Mr. Jamison, he has a long road ahead of him if he wants to play professionally. He wasn't even a starter for a lower college team. He will almost certainly go undrafted and it could be a while before he gets picked up, if he even does. SR C Ariel Ginsberg (Georgetown)- injured 3/17/22- NCAA East Region First Round vs. (11) Utah (L 77-68). 3/19/22- NCAA East Region Second Round vs. (3) Arizona (L 108-81). Ariel had a tough time watching as his college career wound down with a blowout loss to Arizona. He'll now look ahead to the NBA draft, where he is expected to go undrafted, but isn't expected to remain without a team for long. RS JR SG Qwikshot Collins (Pittsburgh) 3/17/22- NCAA West Region First Round vs. (15) Montana State (W 68-44), started game, 35 mins played, 10 points, 10 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 blocks, 2 steals, (Double-double). 3/19/22- NCAA West Region Second Round vs. (10) Cal State Fullerton (W 88-77, OT), started game, 40 mins played, 15 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal. 3/24/22- NCAA West Region Semifinal vs. (6) Florida (L 86-70), started game, 14 mins played, 3 points, 1 rebound, 2 assists. Not the kind of game Qwikshot wanted to finish his junior season on, as Pitt goes home earlier than expected. Qwikshot has already declared for the draft, so he'll be leaving Pitt with a bit of a sour taste in his mouth. JR SG Cameron Blodgett (Duke) 3/18/22- NCAA South Region First Round vs. (16) Georgia (W 80-54), started game, 34 mins played, 18 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 steals. 3/20/22- NCAA South Region Second Round vs. (8) Wisconsin (L 86-80), started game, 32 mins played, 23 points, 1 rebound, 8 assists, 2 steals. The Blue Devils are going home way earlier than expected, but you can't blame Cameron for that. He did his part with a couple solid games. He's going to the draft where he is expected to be a lottery pick. JR PG Jackson Pace (Purdue) 3/18/22- NCAA Midwest Region First Round vs. (11) Cincinnati (L 87-81), started game, 33 mins played, 24 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal. Nice game for Jackson to end his junior season. Purdue had a heck of a season, much better than expected. Apparently Jackson sees big things next season as he's announced his intent to return for his senior year. JR PF Jawouk Bafou (Georgetown) 3/17/22- NCAA East Region First Round vs. (11) Utah (L 77-68), started game, 27 mins played, 12 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, (Double-double). 3/19/22- NCAA East Region Second Round vs. (3) Arizona (L 108-81), started game, 24 mins played, 10 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist, 4 blocks, (Double-double). What an NCAA Tournament performance for Jawouk, with 2 double-doubles. Unfortunately, the team effort wasn't there against Arizona, but if Jawouk wants to come back for his senior season, we've definitely seen what he can do. He hasn't declared for the draft yet, and all indications are that he will definitely be coming back for his senior season. JR C Tim Sheppard (Mississippi State) 3/18/22- NCAA South Region First Round vs. (10) George Mason (W 101-94), started game, 30 mins played, 16 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal. 3/20/22- NCAA South Second Round vs. (2) Louisville (W 81-74), started game, 30 mins played, 10 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 block, 1 steal. 3/24/22- NCAA South Region Semifinal vs. (6) St. Joseph's (W 67-66), started game, 30 mins played, 6 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal. 3/22/26- NCAA South Region Final vs. (8) Wisconsin (L 82-67), started game, 29 mins played, 9 points, 12 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal. Tim had a nice postseason, and Mississippi State probably went farther than most expected as they had an inconsistent regular season. Nobody would blame Tim if he declared for the draft, but as of now he hasn't. It looks like he will come back for his senior season as well. RS SO PF Erik Flamebeard (North Carolina) 3/18/22- NCAA East Region First Round vs. (15) Princeton (W 94-70), came off bench, 16 mins played, 11 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal. 3/20/22- NCAA East Region Second Round vs. (7) Utah State (W 91-83), came off bench, 11 mins played, 4 points, 1 rebound. 3/25/22- NCAA East Region Semifinal vs. (3) Arizona (W 85-65), came off bench, 13 mins played, 3 points, 5 rebounds, 1 block. 3/27/22- NCAA East Region Final vs. (8) Kansas (L 73-63), came off bench, 14 mins played, 2 points, 3 rebounds. Erik had a nice game in the First Round, but struggled a bit there. Go figure, it was Kansas that knocks out the Tarheels. Hopefully, with Erik having to come back as a junior, he'll be able to crack that starting lineup. That does it for the postseason recap, in the next couple of days I'll get the college recap going, give career stats for the departing players, and get the pro season done.

collegesportsfanms Pro Rookie Join Date: Jan 2004	Again guys, if someone wants to see anything added to the pro part of this dynasty, please let me know. I'm having no problems handling the monthly reports, and I will work on getting season stats involved at some point. For now though, if it's not too time consuming or difficult to add, if you have a request, bring it on

collegesportsfanms Pro Rookie Join Date: Jan 2004	Pro Update for April 1-19 (end of regular season) 2nd year PF Jace Hunter (Detroit Pistons) The Pistons finish their season at 33-49, finishing 3rd in the Central Division, and missing the playoffs by a wide margin. Even with the season he had, Jace didn't get any awards. He finished with a 21.2 point, 6.8 rebound average. Still a heck of a season for Jace though, and he should only get better. His rebounding is down a bit, but the scoring is up. His last 2 games of the season were both double-doubles: 25 points, 10 rebounds on the 19th vs. Minnesota, and 10 points, 10 rebounds on the 21st vs. Atlanta. 2nd year PF Ivan Carrillo (Portland Trailblazers/Los Angeles D-Fenders) Ivan played in just 4 games in April, as he had a double-double with 14 points, 10 rebounds on the 6th against Reno. He was then called back up to the Trailblazers on the 10th, where he played in 2 games there, probably the last 2 games in a Blazer uniform as he is testing free agency in the offseason. As for standings, Portland finished 37-45, 4th place in the Northwest Division and missing the playoffs. The D-Fenders, on the other hand, finished with the best record in the NBDL at 34-16, winning the Western Division by 4 games and getting the top seed in the bottom half of the bracket. (In this, the NBDL has 8 teams make the playoffs, and has 2 separate brackets, seeding the teams 1-4. I admittedly have no idea if it is an Eastern Division/Western Division thing, how the teams are seeded, no idea. If someone has a clue, feel free to let me know.) Ivan is hoping to play in the playoffs with the D-Fenders. Rookie SF Chester Smith (Ft. Wayne Mad Ants) The Mad Ants finished at 29-21, 2nd place in the Eastern Division, getting the 3rd seed in the top half of the bracket. (The best I can figure, the 2 teams with the best records are the 1 seeds and placed in different halves of the bracket, 3rd and 4th best records as 2 seeds, and so on. That much I've figured out). Chester had his 2nd best game of the season against Reno on the 10th, logging 15 points and 7 rebounds. Other than that, he didn't do much. But, he is one of just a couple FOFCers that will see playoff action this season. Rookie PG Al Mighty (Utah Jazz) The Jazz finished 48-34, tying with Denver for 1st place in the Northwest Division. Not sure how they won the tiebreaker as they seem to have split with Denver in the regular season. Nevertheless, they will be the 2nd seed in the Western Conference, hosting 7th seed Oklahoma City in the Western Conference First Round. Al had a pretty good scoring month, as he hit double figures in 7 of the Jazz' 11 games, and having 6 assists twice. Rookie SG Ricardo Tubbs (Maine Red Claws) The Red Claws finished an even 25-25, 4th place in the Eastern Division and missing the playoffs. In their 7 games this month, Ricardo scored in double figures in 5 of them, having 22 points twice. He had 7 rebounds in 2 games, 6 rebounds in 3 games, and in the other 2 games he had 4 rebounds and 3 rebounds, so he was pretty consistent there. He has played well enough to get a look on an NBA roster next season, so let's see if he does. Rookie C Rudy Arellano Rudy is one of my created players when I didn't have too many sign-ups. Since then I've gotten a lot more sign-ups and would rather focus on everyone elses players. If anybody wants to see me continue to report on Rudy, I will, but I'm skipping him for this report. Rookie SF Jack Dawkins (Houston Rockets) The Rockets finished 33-49, tying with Dallas for 3rd place in the Midwest Division. They missed the playoffs. No double-doubles for Jack this month, as he scored double figures in only 5 of the Rockets' 12 games in April, with a month high 17 on the 9th against Phoenix. He did flirt with a double-double on the 20th against Cleveland, as he had 14 points and 8 rebounds. He has had a great start to his pro career and will look to build on it next season. Rookie C Ralph King (Indiana Pacers) The Pacers finished 29-53, tying for last place in the Central Division, and obviously missing the playoffs. Although his stats were way, way below all the other NBA 2nd teamers, Ralph somehow managed to be named to the NBA All-Rookie 2nd Team at the center position. Apparently, there must not have been a lot of strong rookie centers in the league this year. Taking nothing away from Ralph, but 6 PPG and 3.2 RPG a game don't really scream deserving a place on an All-anything team. But, congrats to Ralph for getting that award. He did finish the season off setting a career high in rebounds with 12 against Philadelphia, so that is something to build on for next season. Rookie SG Jaybard Riley (Dallas Mavericks) The Mavericks finished 33-49, tied for 3rd with Houston in the Midwest Division. Jaybard was named to the NBA All-Rookie 1st Team, a well deserved honor, and he was also named NBA Rookie of the Month for April. He scored in double figures in all of Dallas' games in April, with his low being 11 on the 13th against Milwaukee. He had 2 double-doubles: on the 15th against Miami, he had 22 points and 10 rebounds. He had a different kind of double-double on the 1st against Memphis, as he had 32 points and 11 assists. He's set the tone for next season, for sure.

collegesportsfanms Pro Rookie Join Date: Jan 2004	For whatever reason, I am having all kinds of trouble getting this draft file to import properly. I'm real close to giving up and scrapping the pro part of this dynasty. I have no idea what's going on, but for some reason, things just aren't working this time. I'll take a step back and try again another day, unless someone with more knowledge can figure it out, cause it's really pissing me off.

collegesportsfanms Pro Rookie Join Date: Jan 2004	Guy, I have some good and bad news. The bad news is that I have lost this dynasty. I was saving the file last night when power went out. Now the file is corrupted and this dynasty is over. The good news is, I've decided to recreate the dynasty. Those that were set to be recruited in the next season, will be the first recruiting class of the new dynasty. And guts like Jaybard and everyone else that had gone pro have the chance to go back to college. I will be starting a new sign-up thread today for season 2 recruits. I'll take 5 or 6 recruits for season 2. I haven't decided on if I'm going to include the pro game or not since I seem to be having so much trouble importing draft classes. If you have an opinion 1 way or another let me know. This will also help me determine if players can leave early or not. So those recruits that were scheduled to be n the next season, look for that to start shortly.

rjolley College Starter Join Date: Dec 2000 Location: Roseville, CA	Hate to hear that, collegesportsfanms. This has been a great dynasty to follow. I like the pro part of the dynasty, even if it's 3 or so updates a year, draft, all star break, and end of the season. However, the frustration of getting the 2 games to work together leads me to think the pro part should be dropped unless Brian can get a fix in place.
