I'd also propose moving the Prospect Draft up to just after the signing deadline for next year, so this isn't a problem again.
-
I don't blame anyone for following what happened last year, we just need to keep moving. How much time is sufficient to make a pick? 6 hours? Less?
-
Concepcion is eligible for the draft. Soler is the one not eligible until next season. This is insane, because people aren't checking in regularly, the draft took forever, and half the league apparently had no clue the season started this morning.
-
At this point, though, this needs to keep moving. Chuck had plenty of time now, so it should be DJ's turn.
-
Yeah, no, we already said we'd keep picking in the prospect draft after the season started.
-
Law is entirely writing off too many guys that are good right now. Kershaw is only 24. Bumgarner is only 23. Hell, even Braun and Votto are only 27 and 28 respectively, and should remain among the top 10 players five years from now (that is, assuming Braun's steroids herpes medication addiction doesn't land him out of baseball by then).
-
I think Anderson, Howard and Braden are all actually on the DL. So I think my roster is legal.
-
You can have them. Ill take the Saints To accurately simulate the Saints FO, you are hereby suspended from participating in draft discussion for 6 months. The draft will be handled by a petulant teenager in your stead.

Did we decide what to do with players currently listed ineligible for certain positions that are starting the season at those positions? i.e. Feliz as a starter or LaHair as a 1B

There's a difference from where Illinois is right now as a program, and where they could/should be. Illinois is in a unique position geographically where if all they did was pull in the best recruits from within the state, they'd have a top 5 recruiting class every year. And there's no real in-state competition for that. Right now, though, there's no pressure for high school recruits to go to a state school, because the school's reputation has hit a slide in the last couple years. However, that doesn't mean the base isn't there for it to be a top 10 program nationally, and, really, they should be aiming for it. They offered Smart/Stevens enough to put it in that league, and they turned it down because they were content where they were. That's nobody's fault, and there's nothing Illinois should have done differently (aside from perhaps not making the numbers public).

Does it bother you Illini fans that he looks like Dave Kaplan (please credit @thekapman) I have no problem with how Kaplan looks. It's the mental diarrhea that spews forth from his mouth that is disgusting and makes him hard to look at.

Illinois is a basketball program that has top 15 national history, and a state to recruit from within that produces the best talent year-in, year-out with no real in-state competition. With that comes a level of expectation that is beyond what some coaches want to deal with, and the CPL business is sleazy and corrupt, which sucks for anyone not already on the inside. I have no problem with how the Smart and Stevens pursuits were handled on either side. Smart and Stevens like where they are and are content without jumping to a high profile, high demand position. Illinois presented the position as the high profile, high demand position it should be. Neither side should have been expected to react differently.

7 hrs, 31 mins, 38 sec. 6 hrs, 8 mins, 12 sec to make my first pick, 1 hour, 19 min, 26 sec to make the other 14.
-
Nickle guy, possible starter, what do you guys think? He fell out of favor, didn't he? Barely had his name called all last year. Either never made plays or was never on the field. Not a good sign either way.

With tonight's Milwaukee loss, coupled with the Bulls' win, they clinched a playoff spot.
-
Only if they can't reattach his foot correctly...
-
Yes. Draft.
-
And Love had 51. And both starting SGs went scoreless. In a 149-140 game.
-
Yeah, I can't believe the committee set you up with such an unfair matchup as the MEAC champ that should have been a 16.

OKC-Minny trying to outscore the combined score of all the college games tonight.

What is stupid? That he just realized yesterday.
