once again, a plea for folks to join the Wooden Upstate, once a proud champion of a conference, now down to 5 (long-term, all with at least 1 title) human coaches.
Available teams:
North
Hamilton: 4 openings, 3 SRs, 3 Jrs, so pretty quick turnaround. Several of the returning players are above-replacement-level, but no stars.
RPI: 5 openings, 4 SRs, 3 SOs, all human-recruited players by high-quality coaches. Easiest team to take over and succeed. NT team this season with a semi-competent human coach.
Skidmore: project. 2 openings, 2-3 competent players. for the rebuild master.
St. Larry's: full roster, maybe a PIT team with a human coach. 5 SRs, 4 JRs, so quick turnaround.
South
Rochester: AKA, the school that defeated oldave. 4 openings, nobody useful. good luck.
Chicago: 3 openings, 560-rated returners, all human-recruited. easily a PIT team, maybe NT with a good coach/a little luck. 2nd-best spot in the league, and a great recruiting spot.
Washington (MO): 1 opening, also human-recruited and likely NT-ready, and a good recruiting spot.
Do it!
