I'll jump in and take Alabama/Auburn...if that's okay...
Absolutely, you're in. After your team is on the league page, SM me your paypal address and I'll send you $10 to cover the team.

Okay, we're at 19 now, but still need an owner for the second UCLA team. Come on guys!

Barkley and McDyess will lead the way for Alabama/Auburn, who have a load of good roll players.

benhoidal had agreed to run the second UCLA team (The Wooden Wizards of Westwood) if nobody else takes them by Monday night. So we're down to just 4 teams to fill up the league.

Take the second team and you can draft your own 5. I'll pay for the team. You'll start with either Jabbar, or Walton and the next pick.

Here's how I see the divisions so far, although things can change if someone else has a second team, or if an obvious EAST team pushes someone to the CENTRAL, or if an obvious MIDWEST team pushes someone to the WEST. Georgetown and NC State/Clemson had to be in the WESTERN conference because the 2 owners each have mainstay EAST teams already.

The 2 guys who left would have worked out well, The Oregon/Oregon State team in the WEST, and Houston WIDWEST with NC State / Clemson or Georgetown going to WEST.

EAST
riftonapple - North Carolina Tar Heels
redbooda - Duke Blue Devils
benhoidal - Wake Forest / Gardner-Webb
SavoyBG - Maryland / Navy
shakespears - UCONN / Hartford
creigel - Alabama/Auburn

CENTRAL
HDS1 - Kentucky Wildcats
beloud - Louisville / Cincinnati
samuelyork93 - Michigan State / Central Michigan
PBandJ - DePaul / Marquette

MIDWEST
SavoyBG - Kansas Jayhawks
redbooda - Georgetown Hoyas
benhoidal - Texas / Texas A&M
thomcat - Oklahoma / Oklahoma State
PBandJ - Tennessee / Memphis
riftonapple - NC State / Clemson

WEST
madmind - San Francisco / California
Poppapomp- USC / San Diego State
thomcat - UCLA Bruins (UCLA #1)
Wooden Wizards of Westwood (UCLA #2)

How about the Malcom Gladwell Nigerian team?

Nobody has mentioned Villanova. Somebody could combine them with Temple and have like 100 guys to choose from with one of Kyle Lowry's big seasons as your point guard.

I have been playing WIS baseball and basketball now for one full year. I am having the time of my life. I haven't yet been successful in talking my wife into it, but in a few years once all the kiddos have flown the nest, I would love to sale the house and tap out. Just buy a tiny house and retire and do nothing but WIS all day long.

I like everybody and I find the humor in everything. Laughter is indeed the best medicine. We all have our quirks and sure some people rub me the wrong way sometimes, and I rub them the wrong way sometimes. You can go back and look at the very 1st basketball league savoy played in and I wrote him a dissertation myself. A lot of guys have given me great advice on building teams in the SIM and I certainly do not want to rub anyone the wrong way on purpose.

But, I have a request. Out of respect for the other owners that have signed up for this theme, if you have not and are not planning on signing up for this theme, please don't comment anymore on this forum. Take it to the Basketball Forum or sitemail savoy directly. And, I promise that if I notice anyone crossing the line on any future forums, I will call them out on it, as I have b4. I have no doubt that if in a few years we were to have a WIS get together in Vegas, we would all get drunk together and argue and laugh and needle each other and have a freaking blast.

Besides, no matter our differences and our personality quirks, we all have something in common. We Love WIS Basketball. And, that is not a common thing. Hard to believe, there's only like what 50 of us that do this?? I can't believe it's not like millions of people and it doesn't cost like $100 per team.
Anyways, sorry to rant, but a couple of VERY SLOW live drafts I am in are running so slow, my patience is worn out. I am going to bed.

We have 11 teams now into the league site. If the rest of the teams can get in there I would appreciate it. We will be at 24 teams by Monday night one way or another. We will have the UCLA 10 player draft Monday night at 9 PM ET. It will be thomcat with one team and ben with the other team, unless somebody else takes the second team before then.

I guess with Kareem the big prize we'll go ABBABABABA. If they both want Kareem I'll flip a coin then, but maybe one of them would rather have B and get Walton and the next best player. We'll see.

So if nobody takes any of the 4 remaining teams by 6 PM ET on Monday, I will put in Houston, Indiana, LSU and Ohio State as league run teams. The standings will show me as the owner, but I will only assemble the rosters and then let the sim decide the minutes and leave the other stuff on the defaults.
