Make sure you get your lineups in before players start their first game!

Also, I'm curious as to some strategy. Do you guys look at schedules to see who starts? It's a gamble. If a guy has a shitty game, you want another one to try to bail it out. If he has a great one, you obviously don't want another for the average to go down.

I did that. I'm starting Alex Hamilton over Marcus Paige this week. Hamilton is playing Samford and Paige is going against Butler. These are each their only games this week.Azubuike24;1677835 wrote:Also, I'm curious as to some strategy. Do you guys look at schedules to see who starts? It's a gamble.

Some guys are must starts. But, I look at the schedule for some others. Im just excited to get Jordan Reed out of the lineup and insert Chris Perry.
I also am REALLY hoping someone I dont need completely goes off (EC Mathews...but vs Kansas, Troy Williams or Jared Brownridge etc.) so I can pick up a 2nd wild-card. My strategy of Troy Williams coming back and getting like 12 pts, 8 reounds and 3 steals against the shitty team IU played didnt work. He isnt averaging enough to waste dropping him for a WC. Might be stuck with him all year lol.

Fuck AJ Hammons for being completely worthless, and fuck me for taking him again.

I've removed them and placed Bowers and Cobb in the starting lineup. OB1, you need to read the rules before making any moves.
Question for everyone. Do I need to make the moves for people? Like post them in here and I'll make the move? Commish mode can just about override anything.

I haven't had any issues adding my players/adjusting stuff myself.
But, doesn't matter to me.

He added Bryce Alford (38.62 PPG) for JerShon Cobb (10.56 PPG) and Cinmeon Bowers (34.69 PPG) for Calvin Godfrey (12.38 PPG). It's like, c'mon bro. Those were the 2 of the 3 highest non-WC eligible players available, haha.

Lol.
I get that he didn't read the rules, but honestly, it's like 5 total things to know.

None of these rules make any sense to me, though. I'm confused on why I should be keeping a guy who isn't the same after injury when I could easily pick up a really good player. Seems illogical.

Last year we had no subs at all, so now we decided to change it a little and add just 3 subs. The % difference rule is to prevent people from just picking up the best players and having a full all star team for everyone. It makes drafting more important and also eliminates the need to figure out who would be able to add guys first like in fantasy football. That would just be a headache to have a waiver wire so this just simplifies things. Azu or Laley could probably explain it better.ohiobucks1;1678647 wrote:None of these rules make any sense to me, though.

This isn't a normal fantasy league. The draft was meant to basically be your team. Again, college is unpredictable and unlike the NFL or NBA or MLB, there's always like 25% of it that nobody sees coming. So, bottom line. You get 3 subs all year. Those subs must be for players averaging within 5% of what the guy he is replacing is averaging. Now, we have no stipulation as to when or how you use these, so there is some strategy there. It can be beneficial to make the sub either early or late in the year, depending on what you prefer.ohiobucks1;1678647 wrote:None of these rules make any sense to me, though.

Not to mention there's too many teams and too many players for waiver wire to make any sense in CBB, unless we wanted the league to be a total crap shoot instead of (at least partially) rewarding knowledge of the sport. It's not like the NFL where every starting RB and 75% of starting QBs are taken in the draft.

Anyone else having issues with the app? I've only been able to login once the last 3 days.
Also, Kennedy Meeks is a dick. Why didn't he start?

I did that, the reinstall was doing the same thing. I could login this am and right now. So maybe the issue has been fixed on their end.

Hoping for a huge game from Portis vs Iona. Iona has the leading FPG player in the country and they usually play high scoring games. This should be an interesting game on SEC Network today at 3:30 PM.
