For the next week. Commish can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think we decided that owners whose teams have lost in conference tournaments are locked from picking new teams until after Selection Sunday.
I believe that is right. Once the last Conference tournament ends (or when the Field of 64 is announced?), then it will unlock and lock again once the first game tips off. i think Dan has an exemption because Cornell does not have a Conference Tourney. Once your team plays one game in their Conference tourney, you are stuck with them until the Conference Tourneys are over.
There was much contraversy about this before. I wanted more open time, but since I lost the argument, I'm enforcing it now. Dan, you are allowed to drop cornell, but not because they don't have a tourney. You can drop them because the conference tourney's haven't started yet (with a couple exceptions that it seems fair to ignore.) Although, it seems unfair to the likes of brian, who, although his team advanced, would not have been allowed to pick up a new one had they come up short. Anyway, when the major conferences tip-off, that's it.
This still has not been reflected on the rosters but I dropped Kuznetsova and picked up Sharapova after the last Women's tennis tourney.
Mark - please tell me that you did not drop Oklahoma because Bosac called them a fraud. They have the best player in college basketball and they will probably get a 1 or 2 seed. Wow. Kansas will go out in the first or second round. Too young and inexperienced.
Ho hum. Camilo Villegas 5 under.
And finally, I believe byes should count as wins in the conference tourneys (similar to women's tennis). A team should not be penalized for being awesome (See Memphis and Louisville).
Drop Cornell, pick up BYU.

ReplyDeleteDrop Oklamhoma/Add Kansas
ReplyDeleteDo I dare even ask someone to define "major conference"? The MVC is better than more than half the conferences left to play.
ReplyDeleteSorry: Major=BCS conferences that play on ESPN during the traditional championship week.
ReplyDeleteThrowing down the gauntlet: drop Wake Forest, add Oklahoma.
ReplyDeleteGolf: drop Piercy, add Rory McIlroy.
