PH DPD: Offseason 2014

[gschwendt]

We're at Coaching Carousel and for those that I could, I forced you to stay at your current job. However, we're at JB and I'm thinking he might have been fired... either that or his contract ran out.

Worst case, I'll set the coaching level at 10, I think that's around the lowest most are, and he'll have to retire and rejoin.

[gschwendt]

Rather than take a risk at JB not getting Coaching XP, we instead decided to have him join as South Alabama... 1-star, 65OVR.


We're now at Player's Leaving. Deadline is Tuesday night, 10/21, at 8pm CT but let's knock it out tonight so I can advance by morning.

Done with position changes, Hall has moved on.

Also players leaving are safe from the web. As is recruiting.

The ONLY THING NOT SAFE is position changes.

I assume in the first two, you mean Players Leaving, and position changes is the only thing not safe from the web.

[JeffHCross]

The ONLY THING NOT SAFE is position changes.THE ONLY THING SAFE IS TRUE.

THE ONLY THING NOT SAFE IS TRUE.

All your base are belong to us.

Make your time.

[psusnoop]

Fixed my bad.

Players leaving, recruiting is safe from web.

Not safe is position changes.

[gschwendt]

Just waiting on Escobar. I texted him so he's aware.

[JeffHCross]

:LSU:
SO TE Dan West, 47OVR - Playing Time (F him)


:D:D:D:D:D

[skipwondah33]

So F him for wanted to go. We have a replacement any way coming in

[gschwendt]

The national champions get even better: Ohio State hires Mark Mangino (Lvl 16) as offensive coordinator. While Mangino's strengths do not mesh with Ohio State's run-first offense, Mangino should be able to improve the Buckeyes' passing game enough to make it a dual-threat offense.

EDIT: Former offensive coordinator Aaron Hampton is now the head coach at NC State.

[JBHuskers]

It's like the Premier League. I've been relegated to :South_Alabama: :D gotta fight my way back to a Powerhouse school.

[gschwendt]

Just waiting on Razorback now... he said he should be able to knock it out in 40 minutes or so.

I'll advance once he completes it.

Papa, you're going to have to cut :4star: OLB Richard Murphy.

JB, same for you and your :4star: WR Jeremy Williams since he was signed in the offseason.

[gschwendt]

We are now at Position Changes.

[gschwendt]

Post here when you're RTA... I'll be watching the Arkansas State game on TV tonight (ESPN2, watch it!) but I'll try to advance when we're ready.

[JBHuskers]

I'll skip position changes so just ignore my status there.

[JeffHCross]

G, I'll be getting home around 930. Expect the girlfriend will have the Royals game on, so I'll try to do my Position Changes on commercial breaks.

[gschwendt]

BTW, I got royally screwed in offseason recruiting. Papa & I were after an ATH that after moving him to HB, he'd be a 76OVR (+13) bowling ball. I was leading 1285 points once we hit the offseason. I knew that Papa could only offer the same max as I could, 10,000. So with the lead, I offered him 9500 (used the other 500 on a LB I really wanted) knowing full well the math wouldn't work for him to catch me. Low & behold, he signs him by offering him 10,000.

Moral of the story, if you're in a battle in the offseason for a player you really want, give him everything.

[gschwendt]

Snoop can't do his until late tonight so I'll advance to Player Cuts first thing in the morning.

Moral of the story, if you're in a battle in the offseason for a player you really want, give him everything.In an offseason test I did, I was caught by the 3rd place school despite the fact that they were out of the battle and, theoretically, couldn't put any points toward him.

I'm not convinced the offseason is right at all.

Worst instance I've ever seen, during Powerhouse on NCAA14, Ryby & I were after an ATH that both of us were killing ourselves trying to sign. Get to the offseason, we're neck & neck and I have a narrow lead; #3 is probably 5000+ points behind. We both offer 10,000 points to him. In the offseason, neither of us sign him. When we go looking for him, we find out he signed with Texas, PapaLonestar, who had never even heard of the guy and never given him a single point to his knowledge.

[skipwondah33]

Luckily I've gotten all the guys I targeted offering 4-5000 points on last 2 seasons.

Both were CB's too. And got an LB last year as well.

LSU RTA

[gschwendt]

Just waiting on Escobar (after 9), Jeff (after 930), & snoop (after 130am ET).

[JeffHCross]

Wow.

TE Lance Marshall moves from TE to WR and jumps 2 more OVR. He was already +5, so now he's +7.
ATH Brad Parker goes from a -1 as ATH to a +12(!!!!) at WR.

I can't fathom why the game thought he was anything other than a WR. I don't recall what the game had him listed at during his visit (Ed: Apparently he was an OLB? One of his worst non-40 positions), but I don't think it was WR.

Worst case, I'll set the coaching level at 10, I think that's around the lowest most are, and he'll have to retire and rejoin.I saw a statement on Tradition Sports that you can't change the Coach Level after you start the dynasty, FYI.

We're now at Cut Players.

Side note my QB now has 92 throw accuracy.

If he's throwing balls in the dirt and 15 yards in either direction of the WR with his feet set I'm going to be pissed lol

Didn't have to cut anyone, but removed that :4star: guy. I'm RTA.

I will be shuffling the conferences around... how, I'm not 100% certain yet but feel free to give any input. It may be late tonight before I'll be able to work on it though but we should be to the preseason before the end of the night.

Are you going to kinda leave me out on my own to try to work my way back up or what are you going to do?

No... I planned to throw you to the wolves with the rest of us :)

In a year or two that will be impossible to work my way out of.

[marcotte14]

I think we should keep the conferences the same, but replace UCLA with Cal and replace Auburn with Texas A&M, and also keep JB in the sunbelt. That would leave 3 users in each SEC, PAC12 and B1G and JB.

[psusnoop]

I'd let JB have one maybe two years to regain some momentum

[psusnoop]

I would rather have 4 users in each conference.

Good to see people on my side :nod:
