Blind Collegeate Draft League (9 in) Topic

this sounds ridiculously intriguing, but I can't quite wrap my head around the concept at this time. Don't count me in, but I may just join later.

aux = independent, correct?

"2. The loser of the coin flip will be assigned to their auxilliary school selection."

if an owner loses the coin toss and has to choose a player from his aux school... what happens if there are other owners who have the aux school as one of their four chosen ones?

i know, u are part of that draft (right?) but, what if the randomized draft slot puts u in the 4th or 5th slot. u can get really hosed in this style draft without being careless. perhaps something could be added to the rules to prevent an owner from losing out twice.

just my thoughts

scud -- thoughts appreciated

1) Tiebreaker flips are determined first
2) Draft orders are then figured out with respective people moved into their auxiliary colleges

Imagine you have a 1/2 chance of missing out on your aux. college
Then you're added to the group of 4 which makes it now 5 owners for the auxiliary college.
The chance of getting the absolute worst outcome, which is missing that college and then getting the bottom pick in your draft order, is 10%. That's a risk but I don't think it's unfair.

Also, just a note: Connie Hawkins plays for Iowa in this league. This seems to come up in every collegiate league but for the purposes of this one, everyone played for the school that they're listed on BB-R.
