2015-2016 Predictions thread

[eldonabe]

OK here is the new predictions thread: Soryy I did not score them for winners, but I think the exercise is more to get a handle on how the UMASSHOOPS masses feel the season will go.

IV for the sake of argument don't put down 30-0 -put down what you really think they will do.


The deadline is 11/14 - I will put out a summary shortly after that.

I can't tell how much it pains me to put these numbers in writing.

[Roadtrip]

So many "ifs"... If Jabarie runs the point and Trey stays at SG, if Donte steps up big, if Hines unleashes the beast, if Berger and Coleman are healthy and stay that way...

Post Season (seed/round advanced to) - At 17-13 we'll get a CBI invitation, which we will accept and lose in the first round because we thought we should have been invited to the NIT.

[NilesGold]

This is based on no Pipkins and modest expectations from all of the new players that I haven't seen play before at this level and modest improvement year over year from the non-seniors. If the new players surprise on the upside or downside or returning players improve more than anticipated, my expectations will be adjusted.
