Title: Salary Team Draft
Post by: Smitty Oom on March 03, 2020, 09:47:23 PM
Here is a new one, and it is a one time "draft" before the tournament so hopefully we can have some more posters join in!

Each poster will have a salary cap of $25 to draft NCAA tourney teams for the entire championship (not a single round). Each team will have a price to draft the team, either $4, $3, $2 or $1. $4 are host teams. $3 are the "favorites" of the neutral site game, $2 are the "underdog" of the neutral site game, $1 is the opponent of the host team. You may think I chose the wrong team as the "favorite," so that means the $2 is probably a good value. I wont change the prices after this posting.

There is no limit or minimum for how many teams you need to select. EX:
Both are viable strategies!

Teams will accrue points for each win, details are below.

There is no limit or minimum for how many teams you need to select. EX:

  • You could choose to select all 16 $1 teams, 3 $2 teams and 1 $3 team for 20 total teams.
  • You could choose to select 6 $4 teams and 1 $1 team for 7 total teams.
Both are viable strategies!
