    Hoops 2016

    Greetings all. This will be my season-long thread for hoops.

    A few items of note at the outset:
    - All plays are -110 unless noted otherwise
    - I utilize an apostrophe (') to denote a half-point. So, -1.5 = -1'. Makes things much easy when posting from phone.
    - I tend to focus on certain conferences (Big Ten, CAA, Horizon, ACC, A10) and most of my plays are based upon a model, so those are the conferences, teams and games regarding which I'm more likely to have a ready opinion. I'm not against running any game through the model, but just understand that my ability to give a quick answer on an OVC total requires my having time to run it. Otherwise, I'm just guessing.
    - If you're here and betting real money on college hoops, I sincerely hope that you invested 20 bucks for a kenpom subscription. Otherwise, you're just guessing.
    - All viewpoints and opinions are appreciated (particularly those contrary to my own). Let's please keep it respectful and constructive. This is a discussion forum, not a schmekel-measuring forum (that's Players Talk, I believe).

    Best of luck to all this season and let's hurt the books.

    Thanks, LK! Always enjoy your threads and will be sure to stop by soon. I'd say that I hope that you're killing it, but based upon past experience, i'm pretty sure that you already are. BOL today, pal.

    Morning, TT! I don't like much. Think VCU probably trucks SLU but giving 9' at a well-coached team sounds like a recipe for disappointment.

    Lean Wake, Nova TT over 77' tonight.
