I'll try but im not positive I'll get to it...

Thank you for the vote, but I'm going to have to tweak the roster a bit to avoid going broke. I've been running at a deficit for the last few weeks while trying to sneak a championship away from LBC. Needless to say it didn't work. Also, Sand Yetis are definitely tough, but they haven't logged in for almost a month. They may go bot here in a couple of weeks.

Haha, my starting PG injured in a scrimmage right before season begins

Alright well here are the long awaited Big 8 preseason power rankings.... I had a bit of a harder time compiling these power rankings considering I'm from the Great 8 and all of the new teams.

Big 8

1. ProhopU

ProhopU still gets the top spot even with their star PG getting injured Thursday... ProhopU has an outstanding starting five while having decent depth coming off the bench. Their massive arena should help to pay for their strong starting five.

2. Jersey Knicks

Jersey Knicks land in second coming close to Prohop for number. The Knicks also have decent depth off the bench, but with a tiny arena I don't know how they will be able to hold up their team or stand a chance at the next level.

3. rockchalk

rockchalk lands in the three spot this season... rockchalk has close to no star power assuming the 88k monster sells but great depth from the top to the bottom which is one reason they land in third.

4. Buffalo Vols

The Buffalo Vols squeeze into the last playoff spot in the preseason rankings. This team has a puny arena but a decent roster... This is the only the teams second season. The aging roster is not in their favor but for now they are in the four spot.

5. Throwback Red Raiders

The Red Raiders hold the five spot in the preseason rankings after finishing there last season... Decent amount of star power but little depth after the starting five.. The Red Raiders could slip into the four spot depending on how the Buffalo Vols hold up.

6. BFDreamers

The six spot belongs to the BFDreamers. A decent starting five but nothing really past that. Age could also be a problem for some BFDreamers players.

7. Monteagle X-Fliers

Monteagle finds themselves in the seven spot. Only ten players on the roster and only two of them over 10k.. It will be interesting to see how their game shape is managed. Major moves will need to be made for this team to become a playoff contender.

8. Tennessee Allstars

The Tennessee Allstars lands in the eight spot for now. It looks as though they may be retooling their roser for D IV since relegating from D III. The Tennessee Allstars rank could drastically change any moment upon a few big pickups.


Playoff Locks: ProhopU, Jersey Knicks
Sleepers: Throwback Red Raiders


Well there you have it the preseason power rankings are complete feel free to post any comments you may have about the power rankings

I havent decided if i am gonna try yet this season or not. I might drop to 5 draft and train

thanks for the 4th plave vote. I like the forums here. I havent decided weather to rebuild or try to get better. My roster may be older but they are all very good defensive players. Thats how you win championships. This is the team i had in Dv last season. as for the areana dont worry ill have over 7k in a few weeks. Thats my goal by the alstar break.

Thx for putting me on the top rank, but I am still in rebuilding. Probably gonna keep this lineup, to get some more $$$

Good Luck to everyone tomorrow in their first cup game of the season!

Bowling Green - The Sharks front office has made a move, firing Coach Larry Jenkins, after a slow start has the Sharks looking at a 2-9 record. Taking over the helm will be Jon Nox. Nox, a native of the area, said that coaching the Sharks has always been a dream of his. "I look forward to evaluating the talent on this team and getting us turned around in the right direction," said Nox at the press conference. "The fans deserve to have a team that they can get behind. I look forward to putting a good product on the floor for our fans to enjoy." Coach Nox took questions for about thirty minutes but did not go into detail on who would start for the Sharks for his first game on October 2nd. "We have a couple of practices planned so that I can look the team over and I will set a regular roster on game day."

Great league
