[Logan]

Damn! When I finally signed up in the other thread, I was about to also write how I've watched very little college ball this year and had no idea how my bracket would shake out, and would need to do heavy research to prepare.

Give me a few mins.

[Logan]

1.1 Andrew Wiggins - Kansas

[stevew]

2. Nick Johnson Arizona

[hoopsguy]

Hey, sorry for holding up the group. Will work on a list later this morning.

1.3 Russ Smith, Louisville

[britrock88]

I'll PM Marmel. Karl will get the same treatment as I gave his fellow West Coaster CR in the other draft--whenever he shows up and picks, he'll be in that slot for the whole draft.

[Marmel]

S. Wilbekin, Florida

[Young Drachma]

Melvin Ejim, Iowa State

[britrock88]

for ntndeacon:

Jabari Parker, Duke

Zinto's up with Karl still yet to check in.

[britrock88]

Zinto, if you beat Karl to the thread, don't go around the horn. I'll give Karl a couple hours to pick at 1.8 and 2.1 once you pick at 1.7.

[Zinto]

1.7 Doug McDermott Creighton

[Logan]

I almost took him first.

I don't ever remember a year where Karl didn't backfill his roster.

[Zinto]

I am excited he fell all the way to me

[ntndeacon]

which means ZInto is now up

[ntndeacon]

oops I didnt see Karl was in the thread!. pik away

[ntndeacon]

Zinto McDermott was the other name on my list. I was shocked that both made it that far down too!

Yeah both were great at the end of the first round.

[britrock88]

from Zinto:

2.2 Gary Harris, Michigan State

[Karlifornia]

Damn! I always forget about the quick turnaround. I'll take Nick Stauskas, Michigan. And Casey Prather, Florida

[Zinto]

Considering I grabbed him at 2.6, I'm thinking/hoping this is a bargain.
