Coaches points reallocation happens during the Conference Shuffle portion of the game. I for the 3rd year in a row have a new DC, and I am mad that Bud Foster was available but apparently went to Clemson instead of coming home Freshman transfers including my QB of the future who is going to WVU for playing time (stupid 5* players and their desire to start right away). Guy had 95 speed, 95 acc, 90 THP, 80 THA. He was going to be a monster...

My only transfer was a 51 ovr fb who wanted more playing time. Didn't put a ton of talent into the draft this year, so outside of HB and QB improvement, my team should stay the same. I haven't lost my OC or DC yet (not sure who would want them)

UNC R2A. Not sure I'm losing too much talent. I did promise a fantastic safety that he would start 9 games and get 8 picks...what happens when I fail to meet those? I was thinking about redshirting him. Also dug this quote from the beginning of this season. Slywalker13 posted:My defence . It was so wonderful last year. Noone in my secondary is rated above 90. JB, somehow, with no xp, you netted the #4 overall class (pending offseason)...crazy.

GT r2a - going almost all-in on the #1 WR in the country. My only competition is SU - I'm guessing that's Syracuse? I'm worried they've got more off-season points than me (I'm forever stuck at 10k here). I don't know if I should change my points - does GT really need the #1 WR? But I think I'll get some actual XP if I land him, I think it's just "game goals" that I don't get XP from. (since you definitely get bust/gem XP with the coach bug) Ugh. Tough decision. I have no team needs at this point and definitely came out way better this season in recruiting than in the past.. so gently caress it. I just hope I get him.

I'm not getting any XP whatsoever - at least for my HC anyway. Miami r2a

I found a few dudes to blow points on and have otherwise invested heavily in a CB recruit against Sly. Gonna finish with a solid deep class, although it's bouyed by a bunch of 68-70 3* depth fillers. Just really hoping this one ATH turns into the FS of the future I want him to be. Needed safeties so bad, got I think 1 or 2 of each. Had a back up for like 3 or 4 almost identical safetys last season who were all senior RS.

I've been in a similar battle with Dio over a TE and I have young CBs and two other commits but no TEs and will have one after this season so all my points are going into him. However...welcome to UNC Bret Bielema, former coach of Arkansas. Way to bring enough points to the game to completely fill out my DC tree. That was awfully nice of you.

Diodeous posted:Look, if we all just willingly colluded we could ALL fill out our classes IIRC last preseason I mentioned to ZSB that I was in need of linemen, and he asked if I wanted him to lay off of one we were both pursuing. I said no figuring he'd do it in anyway out of the kindness in his heart...but there was no kindness. So I highly doubt he will collude with anyone. The ACC is his throne and he would kill a man to protect it.

Completely serious. My class is basically complete and of all the guys left I only want two. I'm only getting one, have a team need for a TE, and have a lead (unlike the studly CB Z and I want) so sorry. Let the mind games begin.

Time to find out! e: Advanced to Position Changes. I am hilariously young and thin at so many critical spots, this is where it all falls apart for me I can see it. I also tried moving a backup to a new spot, which tanked his ratings and moving him back screwed him even more instead of just going back to what it was. So uhh oh well I guess. So many things to target this year, wiffed hard on Oline didn't entirely realize... The Notorious ZSB fucked around with this message at 07:19 on Nov 19, 2014 |

Miami r2a. Surprisingly came away with a couple of nicely rated safeties, but they can't tackle for poo poo though.

UNC ready to go. Looks like I only got two offensive linemen. What the hell happened in the coastal this year? Also I'm having Xbox issues, periodically the screen goes black for a second or two. Sounds continues to play, just the picture is gone. Today I never got any picture when I turned it on and had to reset the system. Any ideas? Has happened a few times during cpu games which is annoying. Could be very bad if it happens in a user game. Cables are good and tight.

Did mine from the web, r2a. After training results, this will be probably be the best OL I've had in the last 5 seasons. I've got good depth at all positions on the line and experience. My offense should definitely be taking a step forward, but my defense will likely be the same, if not slightly worse
|
# ? Nov 19, 2014 21:29 |
Advanced. Cut players. This season is not as dire as I had feared. I will be respectable still. Thank goodness for training. Do we have a title already chosen for this next season? If not suggestions.

Miami r2a. A couple of things to note: I have what is now a redshirted So WR who hasn't gained any speed since he's been here. Also, I think I'm down to about 58-60 players. That's the lowest amount I've ever had.

I assume their their scouted speed is close to their final speed. Maybe I should have gone for that highly rated safety with a 75 speed. UNC r2a

Speed tends to be something that only shifts a few points for guys over their careers. A guy that starts with 80 ovr SPD will probably never be faster than 84 or 85 SPD. ACC is usually where you see big gains, as well as strength. Mostly awareness though, that has the biggest effect on the OVR score of any individual stat.

Typically your players gain 1+ SPD each year. This guy, for two years now, has gotten nothing.

SPD is overrated. AGI is where it's at.

Advanced. Conference Alignment time. This is the point of the advance where you can reset coach points (so it's kinda important). New things! The ACC Champ will no longer go to the Orange Bowl against an at large foe, buoyed by the ACC's dominance of the national title picture for 3 of the last 4 years the ACC Champ will now go straight to a match up with the SEC Champ in the Sugar Bowl. Because the OB is dumb and go NAWLINS.
