It's summer and things are kind of slow around here so I figured it's about time to start a "so early it's pointless to even be having this conversation" thread to liven things up.
So...what do people think will happen in the NSIC this year? Who will be the darkhorses? Will Wayne still have the firepower to get so close but ultimately be bumped out of the Regional at the last second by an undeserving Mankato squad? Will the Mavs have enough cohesion amongst transfers to make another playoff appearance (the answer to that, unfortunately, is probably yes). Will the heralded Dragonlings--which is my newly coined term for a baby dragon--jump from future up-and-comers to regional contenders? Will the Vikings be able to keep up with those young dragons? Will Saul Phillips come in and carry on Northern's recent success with minimal drop-off? Are Minot's arena renovations the key to getting them over the hump? Will USF ever make a regional?
So many questions for the upcoming season, and sooooo much time to discuss them before the season starts in 3.5 months...
