          Updates and stuff.

          I recently ran into something, apparently you get 10 files to save locally between rosters and draft classes? Anyway, we'll get to that when it's necessary (I'm afraid to delete my first class).

          Also, I accidentally uploaded a WIP Draft Class 2 and can't delete it off of 2kShare (is that possible?)

          So, I'm 50 prospects into Draft Class 2, and just finished playing the NCAA Tournament for this class. The NCAA recaps will be a little deeper (team overviews for the Elite Eight teams) in order to create more storylines for the classes. I might have a few more things to post about some of the other prospects in the first Draft Class.

            DRAFT CLASS 2 NCAA TOURNAMENT

            WEST REGIONAL

            Led by freshman forward D’ion Hawkins, the eighth-seeded Panthers took down the 1 seed in the region, Arizona in the round of 32, by 6 points. Central Florida, the 5th seed in the region took down their first two opponents by an average of 19 points. In a tightly played ballgame, the Golden Knights came out on top, scoring the winning basket in their final possession. Central Florida was led by All-American Joe Sherrill’s triple-double (30-10-10). UCF 71, Pitt 69.

            3 seed Louisiana Tech, building on last year’s success, find themselves back in the Elite Eight, after beating second-seeded Syracuse 59-48. Both teams only had two double-digit scorers. The second half was very evenly played, but LTU had built a 24-13 lead at halftime, as the Orange took two long to get going offensively.

            Last year’s tournament darlings are at it again; Louisiana Tech has a chance to make the Final Four for the second straight year. They faced an uphill battle after losing two key seniors from last year’s team: Isaiah Chamberlain and Pearson Dilligard, the latter being the most celebrated player in school history. You might wonder, how did they make it back here? To replace Chamberlain the team brought in JUCO PG Jabbar Chambers, who has done a great job facilitating the offense and making shots when needed. To play PF, they signed the highest recruit the school has seen, 24th ranked prospect Lebron Brooks (yes, he was named after Lebron James). Returning were three starters: Junior forward Tyson Hunt, Senior guard Dominique Kou (who, while excelling defensively, has expanded his offensive game this year), and Senior center, and tenacious rebounder, Rashad Cummings.

            Central Florida was expected to be a dangerous team last year, but got beat early in the tournament. Those expectations came as a result of Joe Sherrill deciding to follow in his family’s footsteps and sign with UCF (Joe’s dad, John, and uncles Jack and Jerry, all played at UCF in the 70s and 80s). After spending some time on the football team last season, Sherrill (a 6’8 QB) decided to focus on two things: basketball and making sure he gets his degree. UCF was in a bit of a bind when their coach two years ago. Sherrill committed anyway, and the coach was left to fill the team with JUCOs and a handful of left over players. After JC forward Nikola Janusauskas went down with an injury, the team didn’t live up to expectations. Their coach worked hard to recruit three-point shooters to surround Sherrill with. Anyone who couldn’t shoot outside was likely left over from the previous coach. This year, Sherrill had one of the best Golden Knight seasons ever, and the supporting cast stepped up as well.

            After going back and forth for the first 10 minutes of the game, the Golden Knights began to break away towards the end of the first half, and they didn’t look back. The Bulldogs managed to cut the lead down to five with 2:37 to play, but they couldn’t stop Joe Sherrill late in the game. The Sophomore finished with 32, 7 and 7 and UCF punched its ticket to the Final Four, 62-51.

            MIDWEST REGIONAL

            Just like the Syracuse-UCF game (which tipped off ten minutes before this one) 1 seed Louisville and UAB played a tightly contested second half, except Louisville had a 12 point lead going into that half. The Cardinals’ balanced attack led them to a 75-63 victory over the lone remaining double digit seed in the tournament, the UAB Blazers. UofL held the Blazers’ star Quincy Livingston to 14 points on 4-9 shooting. UAB Senior center Immanuel Davidson was the only other Blazer in double figures. Sharpshooting senior guard Noah Matthews led the Cardinals with 14 points.

            In the second game of this Regional Semifinal, 2nd seed Texas got off to great start and never looked back in their game against 3rd seed Cincinnati. The Longhorns had a 16 point lead at one point in the first half, and Cincinnati cut the lead to ten at the half. However, both teams couldn’t get any shots to fall in the second half, with both teams scoring only 12 points. Texas hung on to win 50-40 behind Freshman star Shaquille Thomas who finished with 24 points. The Bearcats could have used Leroy Bradford from last year’s team, as their leading scorer only had 7 points.

            After Louisville won the National Championship last season, Jamal Jefferson quickly announced he would return for his sophomore season, which was a huge piece of the Cardinals title defense plans. After losing center Garrett Irvin and Connor Nixon to the NBA, and rotation guy Quinton McClinton (who transferred to St. Louis), the Cardinals were hoping Jefferson would love the experience enough to want to do it again. Noah Matthews would return in a role similar to Nixon’s (he started at the 3 spot last season, but slid to a more natural shooting guard position to accommodate fellow senior wing Dedrick Ingram). UofL replaced Irvin with Sophomore Harlan Thornton, a good 5 inches taller than Irvin. Alando Cherry also returned to man the points guard spot. Also getting minutes off the bench were incoming freshman forward Eddie Hackett, 7’3” JUCO Center Zaire Marshall, and returned guard William Lacy, who led the team in scoring on four occasions last year despite coming off the bench.

            Texas got two of the top ten freshman to commit in this recruiting class in guards Trent Garrison and Shaquille Thomas. A more experienced frontcourt (junior forwards Kendall Childress and Dexter Marshall, and center Tanner Plummer) helped transition the young guards. It led to a very successful season in Austin. The Longhorns had a chance at the number seed, and many still feel they got robbed of that. At any rate, they face a tough, tested Louisville team with a trip to the Final Four on the line.

            As with their game against Cincinnati, the Longhorns jumped out early in this game, and had the same 38-28 lead they had at the half against the Bearcats. Both teams managed to show up in the second half this time, but Texas pulled away and won the game 76-63. Shaquille Thomas had 18 points, despite missing 8 three point attempts. Garrison added 6 assists, while Tanner Plummer had 9 rebounds, sending the Longhorns to the Final Four to face the UCF Golden Knights. IN what should be his final collegiate game, Jamal Jefferson led Louisville with 18 points and 6 rebounds. While Noah Matthews was held to only 5 points, he did contribute in other ways with 4 rebounds, 4 assists, and 4 steals. But one big guarantee now is that we won’t have a back to back champion.

                  EAST REGIONAL

                  The first East Regional Semifinal pitted 5th seeded Xavier vs the 1st seeded North Carolina Tarheels. Led by second team All-American guard Freddie Westermann, Xavier came into the game with high expectations, but like a lot of these regional games, fell behind early in the first half and couldn’t regain momentum. Westermann, a junior, finished the game with 12 points, then announced he was leaving for the NBA, adding to the Muskateers’ heartbreak. North Carolina ended the game with only one double digit scorer. UNC won the game 55-48.

                  The second East Regional Semifinal was one of the more exciting games of the tournament. West Virginia, a 6 seed, trailed 2 seed Ohio State by only two at halftime and managed a lead for parts of the second half. The Buckeyes’ freshman guard. Ben Tucker, scored on the final possession and got fouled, giving Ohio State the 74-71 win. Mountaineers’ shooting guard Christian Ellis finished with 17 points and their center Anthon Hamilton finished with 18 and 15 rebounds.

                  North Carolina comes into the Elite Eight as the second most hyped team in the tournament after Kentucky. Freshman Devon Haley is expected to be a top pick in June’s NBA Draft. Freshmen guards Stacey Callaway and Vincent Satterwhite were both ESPN Top 150 recruits. Sophmore guard Qa’rraan King came into his own this year. Sophomore center Justin Turner could be a late first round pick should he leave. Not to mention the line of Power Forwards UNC has built: Senior Shamell Oakley, Junior Wilson Randall, Sophomore Holden Goldsberry. Junior wing Jakob Del Rosario might be the second best player on this team, but comes off the bench. It’ll be interesting to see which pieces of this team are around next year.

                  Ohio State is just as good a team as UNC, but they’re not as flashy. They have some key parts that can be drafted this year (and next year, and the year after that, etc.). Freshman guard Ben Tucker came on to the scene late in his senior year of high school, but burst on to the scene in Columbus. Melvin Hailey was already one of the top freshmen in the country when he signed, and he hasn’t let down. Senior PG Larry Flint is definitely a pass first player and a ball handler (with an unfortunate name). Senior forwards Cato Sherman and Anthony Douglas are highly skilled players who could both be drafted in the first round of the NBA Draft. But the Buckeyes’ real weapon lies in the form of sharpshooting Junior guard Stephen Castellanos. It’s hard to find minutes for the kid with all this talent in the starting lineup, but he makes the most of his minutes.

                  Both teams burst out of the gate to find themselves deadlocked in a tight battle all night. UNC tightened up their rotation, playing only eight players (half of them scoring in double figures, led by Qa’rraan King’s 19). Stacey Callaway had 11 assists as well. Melvin Hailey led OSU with 19 points and 7 rebounds. Stephen Castellanos also contributed 17 points off the bench. He connected on all five of his three-point attempts, including a buzzer beating three that sent Ohio State to the Final Four with a 79-78 win.

                  SOUTH REGIONAL

                  Kentucky found themselves in the Sweet Sixteen as the number one overall seed for the second straight year. Their opponent this time was a streaky St. John’s team that won its final 13 games before the tournament to lock up a 5 seed. With a senior laden lineup, led by SF Christ Wright and PG Cedrick Carrington, the Red Storm knocked off Arkansas in the round of 32 (one of three SEC team’s in the South Region). They hung tight for 40 minutes against another SEC team, but lost one a last second jumper from UK’s Jerome Kimball. Kentucky got a 19 point, 9 rebound performance from it’s All-American, and freshman bi Tahj Bailey added 20 points. The Wildcats marched back to the Elite Eight with a 72-70 win.

                  Depsite losing freshman phenom Lamont Michaels to the NBA after last season, Alabama once again found themselves in the Sweet Sixteen. Their opponent this time around was another Sweet Sixteen team from last season: Michigan State. Both teams lost significant pieces from last year (‘Bama lost Michaels, while Sparty lost their backcourt in Ruben Wingate and Drew Richardson), but managed to get their way through to matchup with a chance at the Elite Eight. The Crimson Tide stormed out of the gates to a 41-29 lead at halftime and the game wouldn’t get into single digits until the closing minutes. Alabama held on 77-68.

                  As you would expect Kentucky reloaded after losing four starters from last year’s squad (Hakeem Benjamin, Omar Drake, Marshall McCloud, and Sylvester Arnold) along with big man Martin McFarland. They added four talented freshman again in PG KC Johnson, SG Andrae Lavender, SF Delvon Dickey, and PF Tahj Bailey. They also returned four sophomores from that 8 man recruiting class: SF Jerome Kimball, C Gabriel Wilkerson, PG Whitney Miller, and PF Scottie Matela. They also added a JUCO Center, Martrel Adams to go along with junior guard Brice Holcomb. Kimball and Bailey served as the most impressive, though Lavender and Johnson seem likely to leave as well. To be honest the Wildcats could in for another big reload, as all ten of their rotation guys are on someone’s NBA radar as we speak.

                  Alabama faced a large hole in their lineup when Lamont Michaels left after his freshman year. With no solution in sight, the Crimson Tide entered camp with a big question mark. Thankfully Austen Cook, a senior with a career high of six points and played about 11 minutes a game in his first three years, became the big man ‘Bama needed. While not the most athletic center in the game, Cook can extend his shot to about 15 feet and play good defense. The Tide also have two good point guards in Reyshawn Abram (Sr.) and Josiah Rhodes (So.) as well as senior SG Jake Wade, a potential lottery pick. Mario Sims and Winston Hargrove complete Alabama’s frontcourt.

                  When a team like Kentucky reloads year after year, it can be tough to compete athletically with such talent. One of the things that you can really hope for is a team that has played together often and really gels on the court. Alabama wasn’t able to beat Kentucky in two tries in the regular season, and despite their best efforts in this game with higher stakes, they couldn’t get it done this time either. Mario Sims led Alabama with 19 points in the 69-61 loss. Kentucky was once again led by Jerome Kimball and his 15 points.

                    FINAL FOUR

                    Central Florida and Texas led off the Final Four Saturday with a great 20 minutes of basketball. The second 20 minutes, not so much. UCF held Texas’ wings Shaquille Thomas and Dexter Marshall to 9-29 shooting (Thomas had 13 points, Marshall, 11). The Longhorns only mustered up 13 points in the second half. Joe Sherrill continued his NCAA dominance with a 25 point, 7 rebound, 6 assist performance. He could be the top pick in the NBA Draft this summer, but insists that he will finish his degree before he leaves the university.

                    Kentucky’s Jerome Kimball had a double-double (19 points, 10 rebounds) and led UK back from an 11 point deficit in the second half. UK shut down Cato Sherman and Ben Tucker (9 points combined), but allowed Anthony Douglas to get 23 points and 7 rebounds. UK shut down Stephen Castellanos for 39 minutes and 57 seconds (he had four points going into the last possession), but he hit another buzzer beating three-pointer to send Ohio State to the Championship to face UCF, 70-67.

                    CHAMPIONSHIP

                    Ohio State came into this game confident they could shut down Joe Sherrill offensively, something no team has been able to accomplish. The plan was somewhat effective, as Earl Barron, the Golden Knights’ center led the team in scoring with ten points. Sherrill finished the game in his usual style with 8 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists. OSU had an 11 point halftime lead and never let it get below 7 in the second half as they won the championship 66-52. Center Melvin Hailey finished with 16 and 11 and announced he would leave for the NBA. Many thought Joe Sherrill would still be MOP despite his team losing, but that award went to OSU guard Larry Flint, who averaged 11 points, 7 assists and 2.5 steals in the Final Four.

                      Draft Class 1 has 100 downloads (and only two of the were me!) Thanks everyone!

                      Draft Class 2 will be uploaded by tonight.

                      Won't be posting the headshots of everyone this time. So here's the potential lottery picks (the only players in the class rated in the 70s). Also, we can just call Anthony Douglas "Bigfoot" because he's naturally blurry.

                        Re: Fictional Draft Classes for the Playstation 4

                        So before I upload the draft class (ETA 9 PM EST tonight), I'm going to do breakdowns by position, just you have an idea who is all in this draft class.

                        Each position will be broken down into 4 tiers

                        1 - The absolute best in each position. Could be franchise cornerstones or at least a top 2 player on his team eventually.

                        2 - Solid contributors from the get go. These guys project to be starters down the road (or sixth men).

                        3 - These guys will be filling out rosters, some will pan out, some won't.

                        4 - These are the players who most likely will go undrafted.

                        Now, with that said, these are not absolute/all-knowing predictions. There are still busts hidden in the draft, and undrafted guys that could be solid guys for your team. SO these are meant to be something you'd see on a website/magazine before a real draft.

                        Also,

                        All-Americans

                        FIRST TEAM
                        G Freddie Westermann - Xavier - Jr.
                        G Shaquille Thomas - Texas - Fr.
                        F Joe Sherrill - Central Florida - So.
                        F Jamal Jefferson - Louisville - So.
                        C Darrell Hamilton - Syracuse - Sr.

                        SECOND TEAM
                        G Cooper Olsen - Maryland - Sr.
                        G Jake Wade - Alabama - Sr.
                        F Devon Haley - North Carolina - Fr.
                        F Jerome Kimball - Kentucky - So.
                        C Melvin Hailey - Ohio State - Fr.

                        POINT GUARDS
                        None of the point guards are really thought of as Franchise-changers so the top 4 will be Tier 1(B)
                        TIER 1B
                        Freddie Westermann - Xavier - Junior - 6'2 / 181
                        Trent Garrison - Texas - Sophomore - 6'2 / 180
                        Malik Burton - Arizona - Freshman - 6'1 / 172
                        KC Johnson - Kentucky - Freshman - 6'3 / 192

                        Out of these four Garrison and Johnson have the best chance of becoming the best two PGs in this draft. Burton is similar to Melvin Marion of last year's draft, very defensive-minded

                        TIER 2
                        Pablo Valencia - Spain - 6'5 / 191
                        Leon Collins - Syracuse - Senior - 6'2 / 188
                        Franklin Pierce - George Washington - Junior - 6'1 / 179
                        Raul Morris - Penn State - Sophomore - 6'1 / 178
                        Reyshawn Abram - Alabama - Senior - 5'11 / 172

                        There's not many high quality international prospects in this draft. Valencia is probably the second best. He's a great floor general but can't really shoot the way Morris & Abram can.

                        TIER 3
                        Lester Cousins - Massachusetts - Sophomore - 6'2 / 180
                        Billy Everton - Duke - Senior - 6'2 / 196
                        Marlon Gibson - West Virginia - 6'1 / 180
                        Alando Cherry - Louisville - Senior - 5'11 / 185
                        Larry Flint - Ohio State - Senior - 6'2 / 180

                        Billy Everton is pretty high on some teams' draft boards, but there's not really one special skill that jumps out at you like, say, Cherry's three point shooting.

                        TIER 4
                        Cooper Olsen - Maryland - Senior - 6'2 / 186
                        Cedrick Carrington - St. John's - Senior - 6'1 / 210
                        Sydney Phillibert - France - 5'10 / 176
                        Quinton Kelly - Houston - Sophomore - 6'5 / 190
                        CC Abernathy - Pittsburgh - Senior - 5'11 / 170

                        In a draft with few quality international prospects, Sydney Phillibert's heights does him no favors. If he was a few inches taller he'd be higher on draft boards. Scouts like 2nd team All-American Copper Olsen, but feel he's already hit his peak.

                          SHOOTING GUARDS
                          TIER 1
                          Shaquille Thomas – Texas – Freshman – 6’5 / 201

                          Far and away, the best 2 guards in the draft, also with the most potential. An All-American in his only year in Austin, he’s a dynamite scorer, but needs to improve on everything else.

                          TIER 2
                          Jake Wade – Alabama – Senior – 6’5 / 192
                          Donnell Slaughter – Kansas –Freshman – 6’5 / 190
                          Andrae Lavender – Kentucky – Freshman – 6’6 / 198
                          Noah Matthews – Louisville – Senior – 6’5 / 191
                          Jerome Thornton – Penn State – Junior - 6’4 / 193

                          Thornton and Matthews are great outside shooters. Lavender and Slaughter had similarly lackluster seasons in college, considering their preseason hype. Wade can be starter on a poor team.

                          TIER 3
                          Dominique Kou – Louisiana Tech – Senior – 6’3 / 198
                          Christian Ellis – West Virginia – Senior – 6’3 / 190
                          Tajuan Wiggins – St. John’s – Senior – 6’5 / 191
                          Andre Jordan – Hofstra – Senior – 6’5 / 200

                          Kou is a great defender, but, until his senior season couldn’t shoot. Jordan is a good player, but is pretty old after bouncing around between two NCAA colleges and a junior college.

                          TIER 4
                          Demarcus Keith – Pittsburgh – Senior – 6’5 / 200
                          Andre Long – Florida – Senior – 6’4 / 194
                          Corey Carroll – Notre Dame – Senior – 6’5 / 193
                          Chris Oliver – Iowa – Junior – 6’5 / 194
                          Antonio Diaz – Spain – 6’5 / 193

                          Oliver left college prematurely after being kicked off of the Hawkeyes. Diaz is a pesky defender with good speed.

                          SMALL FORWARDS
                          TIER 1
                          Devon Haley – North Carolina – Freshman – 6’9 / 214
                          Jerome Kimball – Kentucky – Sophomore – 6’6 / 217

                          Haley is a pretty good shooter and explosive wing. Kimball used his sophomore season to remind us that he can’t shoot, but can do just about everything else as a strong, bullish wing.

                          TIER 2
                          Clemente Castillo – Puerto Rico – 6’8 / 226
                          Cato Sherman – Ohio State – Senior - 6’7 / 220
                          Tyson Hunt – Louisiana Tech – Junior – 6’9 / 242

                          Castillo was named after Roberto Clemente and wears his number. He played baseball until age 17 (he turned down a contract from Clemente’s former team, the Pittsburgh Pirates, to pursue basketball). Sherman and Hunt are both big bodies that bully defenders.

                          TIER 3
                          Quincy Livingston – UAB – Junior – 6’10 / 202
                          Clayton McCallister – Michigan State – Senior – 6’7 / 202
                          Stephan Silvestre – France – 6’7 / 218
                          Dedrick Ingram – Louisville – Senior – 6’6 / 216
                          Christ Wright – St. John’s – Senior – 6’7 / 214
                          Orlando Boggan – Xavier – Senior – 6’6 / 212

                          Livingston will need to add bulk to last in the league. Silvestre is a great leaper who was a teammate of Phillibert in France. Wright could add 25 pounds and become a post player with his excellent shot-blocking ability.

                          TIER 4
                          Mario Sims – Alabama – Senior – 6’6 / 197
                          Troy Campbell – Canada – 6’6 / 194
                          Jaivon Gibbons – Cincinnati – Senior – 6’7 / 208
                          Walt Williams – Ole Miss – Senior – 6’8 / 224
                          Joe Goodman – Arizona – Senior - 6’8 / 227

                          Williams and Goodman could be solid role players if given the opportunity. Campbell is a big unknown after turning down an opportunity to play collegiate ball in the US.

                            POWER FORWARDS
                            TIER 1
                            Jamal Jefferson – Louisville – Sophomore – 6’10 / 229
                            D’ion Hawkins – Pittsburgh – Freshman – 6’9 / 245
                            Anthony Hamilton – West Virginia – Junior - 6’10 / 260

                            Jefferson would be 1A here if asked. His skillset is broader than the other two listed.

                            TIER 2
                            Anthony Douglas – Ohio State – Senior – 6’9 / 243
                            Maurice Adams – Duke –Senior – 6’8 / 230
                            Harper McDowell – Indiana – Freshman – 6’9 / 231
                            Lyle Roller – Michigan State – Senior – 6’9 / 245

                            Adams is the most athletic out of the four. Douglas is the strongest. McDowell has the best shot/range. Roller is the best inside presence. Combine them and they’re the top pick!

                            TIER 3
                            Shamell Oakley – North Carolina – Senior – 6’8 / 238

                            The first in a decent line of cookie cutter PF’s at UNC. He has a great motor. Will get drafted.

                            TIER 4
                            Nick Johnson – Louisiana Tech – Senior – 6’10 / 205
                            Daron Drayton Long – Xavier – Senior – 6’9 / 235
                            Jermaine Slay – Arizona State - Junior – 6’9 / 227
                            Tyrone Rollins – Xavier – Senior – 6’8 / 225
                            Oliver Reeves – Cincinnati – Senior – 6’8 / 243
                            Cole Phelps – BYU – Senior – 6’10 / 243
                            Randy Wilcox – Notre Dame - Senior – 6’9 / 242

                            Johnson started two games in his NCAA career after coming to LaTech as a JUCO forward. He’s a tremendous leaper and rebounder and backed up Pearson Dilligard and Lebron Brooks (future draftee). Drayton and Rollins both played in the post at Xavier, with Drayton (more of a shooter) logging the minutes at center. Jermaine Slay has similar skills as Nick Johnson, but has about 20 pounds on him.

                            CENTERS
                            TIER 1
                            Melvin Hailey – Ohio State – Freshman – 6’11 / 249

                            Hailey was a second-team All-American and has the best chance of being a franchise center. Reminded scouts and college coaches of former Buckeye Greg Oden.

                            TIER 2
                            John Thompson – Cincinnati – Freshman – 6’11 / 251
                            Darrell Hamilton – Syracuse – Senior - 6’11 / 260
                            Rashad Cunningham – Louisiana Tech – Senior – 6’11 / 268

                            Hamilton and Cunningham are terrific rebounders. Thompson has great offensive post abilities.

                            TIER 3
                            Daniel Emerson – Miami (Ohio) – Senior – 6’10 / 237
                            Byron Wiley – Pittsburgh – Junior – 6’10 / 270
                            RJ Bailey – Arkansas – Senior – 7’0 / 230
                            Percy Armstrong – Providence – Senior – 6’10 / 287
                            Stefan Wheeler – Germany – 7’1 / 255

                            Armstrong and Wiley are the two widest bodies in the draft and good rebounders. Bailey is a good shot blocker.

                            TIER 4
                            Austen Cook – Alabama – Senior – 6’11 / 246
                            Julio Simon – UTEP – Sophomore – 6’11 / 225
                            Tim Marks – Florida – Junior – 7’1 / 246
                            Baron Earl, Jr. – St. John’s – Senior – 6’10 / 270
                            Immanuel Davidson – UAB – Senior – 7’2 / 275
                            Curtis Weiss – Boise State – Senior - 6’10 / 250

                            Cook was the most improved played player in college basketball this season. Davidson is the tallest player in the class and a terrific rebounder.
