Haha last year was their first year in D1. They aren't postseason eligible until 2018.

With games against Our Lady of the Lake and Open Bible, it's fair to say that Denzel will have another good year. Lol. Not sure what their schedule looks like this year, though.

Nice snag.

Just an FYI to everyone. Fantrax is updated. So, when it says PPG, BPG, SPG, etc...that scoring is already calculated based on OUR setup. So, for instance. Alan Williams was the highest scoring player at around 40 PPG. That figure was accurate based on the setup we're going to use.

I just downloaded the fantrax app. Pretty nice app actually. Not quite as user friendly as ESPN/yahoo for fantasy. But I definitely recommend it for this, if your on your phone as much as I am.

It has also come to my attention that some conferences are not added to the player pool yet. I do get emails daily about players being added to their pool, but I want people to be aware that, certain players COULD be out there, but NOT yet added to the Fantrax site. I have it set to track all teams in D1, so they will eventually be there. However, as of now, they aren't.

This shouldn't change things, it just means if you pick a player not in the pool, they are still alright as long as they are currently on a D1 team. If you want to, post their link to another site. It just means you may need to do some manual research like we did last year to figure out their scoring calculation.

BTW, Long is one of the players not added to the database yet. I'll add him when he gets added in.

Between him and Sykes for me, once the top 2 guys on my board were picked.

I do have a question though, which would limit his value (slightly)...does FANTrax list him as a F or C? That could be a game changer for you.

He's not in the database yet, so technically that can't be answered. However, if someone makes a pick of a player not in the database, I think we can honor what they are listed on the team's ESPN page as well. That is how we determined positions last year.

He's listed on Louisiana-Lafayette, ESPN, and CBS websites as a forward.

We can likely assume he will be a forward on Fantrax as well.

Yes, it will. On Fantrax if he's a center, he still counts as a center.

Well yeah. But my point is he will probably be a Foward.

I know. I wasn't responding to you. Moreso just saying if he is a C on fantrax he should be a C.

I knew it was a long shot, but since he wasnt listed on the FantTrax site yet, hoping people forgot him.

There's 3 or 4 conferences they haven't added in. Maybe going by alphabetical order or something. Not sure.
