This has been done on another board so I thought that I would bring it here for us to enjoy. It helps bring a new perspective to conference realignment and what better way to have fun with conference realignment than to draft your own conference. For those of you new to this, here are the basics:

* You are the commissioner and you build your conference through a snake draft, like in fantasy football. Our number of participants will determine how many schools are picked for each conference. You select if you want divisions, pods or to go divisionless.

* Ideal conferences are judged in the same way that we judge real conferences: athletic prowess, academic profile, cultural fit, geographical fit, revenue ability, rivalries and other such factors.

* Selections are limited to current FBS schools or schools that have declared to join FBS, like Navy.

* We will break halfway through the draft for realignment period (to make trades). Both schools and remaining draft picks can be traded. When the draft concludes, final realignment (trades) will also take place. Like in fantasy football a trade can be blocked with a unanimous vote from the other commissioners if voting occurs within 24 hours of the trade.



Respond if you want to play! The only requirement is that you stay up with the board over the next week or two to make sure you make picks in a timely manner. We can run two or three drafts if we get enough interested people. Lets give everyone a few days to join & depending on the response we will get started early next week. What do you think?
