Swamp Conference Power Rankings

A_B · Post by **A_B** » Thu Sep 03, 2015 9:44 am

Brian is almost assuredly right, but figured why not get a tally for the conferences out there. I know a lot went to smaller schools, but put whatever conference they are in to rep your school - I just put in the list of D! basketball schools, but I know that isn't everyone. Hell, enter your name as often as you have schools (advanced degrees, etc.)

There are a few Mountain West guys here, with Carwash and me from Colorado State, DiS from Utah, Rush from New Mexico. I think somebody went to San Diego State? Pentagonz is a Wyoming fan, but I don't think he attended there...

Did Jerloma go to BYU?, no that's not right... they're not even in the conference anymore...
