Anyone want to start throwing out way-too-early predictions? I know recruiting classes are nowhere near finalized and we've got an entire summer to have this discussion, but no reason we can't throw thoughts out now while we're at it. If Sportscenter can basically run a 24/7 sports news cycle, we can manage to get a day or two of activity per week on here during the summer.
My way-too-early NSIC predictions:
My predicted top 3 teams are Moorhead, SMSU, and Northern, possibly in that order, depending on what shakes out with Moorhead's recruiting class. Would like to see Augie crack that 4 or 5 spot in the conference standings, but we'll need some big men to step up in a big way to make that happen. Also imagine MSU, even Witthus-less, will have enough athletes to be contenders. And then, of course, there's Upper Iowa possibly looking to repeat or improve upon their success from this past season.
Just my thoughts for now. The conference could see 15 incoming transfers between now and the season kicking off next year and my thoughts might change entirely. But I feel pretty safe in my Moorhead/SMSU/Northern prediction at this point.
