This episode was recorded before the Fantasy Gymnastics season was officially cancelled on December 13th. However we decided to still publish this episode because there are some helpful hints for drafting a fantasy team (whether you plan to play in a private league this year or just save it for next year) plus some gymnasts we think you should watch out for this season. From secret weapons to incoming freshman--we've got you covered!  

Register to play Fantasy Gymnastics if you haven't already. The draft will be closed this year due to the uncertainty of the season, but make you register for next year if you haven’t already: http://www.collegefantasygymnastics.com/

This bonus episode is to address the New York Times article that came out today (Nov 30) as well as the video Maggie Haney and her supporters made to discredit the athletes who have come forward with their stories of emotional, verbal, and physical abuse. We have LOTS of thoughts.

This week we discuss lineup predictions and potential outcomes for the University of Alabama. We also talk about the teams who have already had their seasons cancelled and some of the stellar signees for 2022!

The University of Alaska, who is set to be cut after the 2021 season, is one of the programs who has already had their season cancelled. This means if the program isn’t reinstated, they will never compete again. They need our help to save the program!
