Time for the annual preseason poll. For the past 4 or 5 seasons, the quality of the Great 8 has outpaced the Big 8. This season looks no different. With that said, here are your preseason power rankings based on the current rosters.
Championship Contenders
1. Tallahassee Trees - The results weren't quite what we expected last season from a mainstay of III.1, but Laron's results and roster speak for themselves.
2. PV Pride - This team should be competitive, if for no other reason than the bloated team salary.
3. GoZags - Underrated team and manager, with a plethora of young, quality players. With the age of his players, he's poised to promote in the next season or two.
4. D City Smokers - tnjay's revamped roster, combined with his stud trainee Cole, should keep him in contention for the next few seasons.
Solid, not Spectacular
5. Diamantes - Solid team. Solid manager. The lack of youth and the prevalence of age will make it tough for him as the season progresses.
6. Mighty Spartans - See Diamantes.
7 Burlington Orbitals - Playoff team in the Big 8. Unfortunately, he's not in the Big 8.
8. Missouri City Sounders - Fighting relegation in the Great 8. Fortunately, he's not in the Great 8.
9. Deportivo Saprissa - A. Sizemore is a great manager. The roster is not quite there yet, but i'm sure he'll climb the rankings as he builds his roster.
10. Fair Where Foes - See Burlington Orbitals.
The Jury's Out
11. Florida Champs - Bobbanana's coffers are loaded, but the roster is incomplete. Until then....
Everyone Else
12. Sandy Springs Basketball Club - Hank the Bank is the man, even if his roster is mediocre.
13. Swamp People - There's potential here, especially with those trainees.
14. UofDallas - I'm tired, it's late.....
Future Bot
15. Blood Kings - Longtime manager with a great roster. Unfortunately, he hasn't logged in in 3 weeks.
16. Georgia Heat
