2018 Cap City League

[str8cashhomie]

Figured I'd revive/remake the Cap City thread for the summer. Draft is tomorrow at 6 and the league is live tweeting it. Sounds like no Lard and Babb, but should be an interesting year with all the new faces.

What does your mock draft look like?

 

[cyfanatic13]

Lindell, Shayok, THT, Talley, Solo, Lewis, Griffin, Jacobson, Haliburton, Conditt

I have absolutely zero clue but that's how I'd probably draft it

 

[SwirlyBird]

I would take the high school players over any drake player

 

[CloneGuy8]

Why no Lard?

They draft all the Iowa State players in one draft, all the Drake guys in another, then an open round with everyone else.

Why no Lard?

Not sure, but Nixon and the new walkon on from Ames High are playing as well, which is their 12.

We have a new walk on from Ames?

Eric Steyer. Looks like he graduated in 2017, so I think he was already an ISU student maybe?

 

[isutrevman]

Whar Lard?

 

[Thompsonclone]

Prohm take away Lard’s keys and therefore he can’t make it to the games? Lol

 

[ClonesFTW]

Definitely ok with Babb sitting this one out.

He has an internship in Omaha or KC or something in order to graduate, hence the absence.

Good to know. When did this happen?

 

[J-Diggy]

Hard to go wrong with either Shayock or Wigginton at #1. After THT at 3 (assuming that holds form) the rest will be interesting.

Drake only has two scholarship players left that saw minutes last year - Nick McGlynn and Noah Thomas. But they do add Brady Ellingson from Iowa so there's that.

Yeah, but is adding Brady Ellingson a net positive or negative?

 

[mwwbbfan]

Steyer will be a good addition as a walk on - 6'5" shooting guard - shot about 40% from 3 in high school - HIGH Academic guy - Think attending ISU on Academic Scholarship. HS numbers don't jump out but more due to style of play at Ames. Born and raised in Ames. Fits the bill as a "culture guy" that Coach Prohm laid out on tailgate tour. (Son of WBB Assoc Head Coach Jodi Steyer so will know what being a walkon entails)

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Think i'd take Shayok #1.

Didn't he put up ridiculous numbers in CCL last year?

Drake added a solid grad transfer from UAB. 5-10 pg that put up 7.5 ppg 2.8 rpg 4.9 apg

Also 3 juco kids one of which was a juco all American.

I think Stansbury mentioned on a CFPod Shayok scored the most total points in the history last CCL season.

I wonder what the deal with lard is.
