I am on board with both of you. If we were going to start banning 6* teams, we would need to ban all of them. I know it is tough to go against the top teams, but is doable if you win enough and pick your battles in recruiting. I would pick Miami again, but I just want a change of pace because it gets stale using the same team every year. To be honest though, with this many quality teams and users, recruiting will be tough for every team regardless.
To be clear, I wasn't advocating banning any teams... just simply that I wouldn't object if Alabama went undrafted :)
Only cause your pick sucks! :P
No... I was saying in my mock draft, they went undrafted based on how everyone called out their teams previously. If they fell to me, I wouldn't take them unless all four of my previous picks were already drawn. I prefer to have a bit of a challenge and they wouldn't offer up much of a challenge.Quote:

OK so I can officially cross off Alabama from my list of potential teams picking in the #9 slot.Quote:

I should just throw a monley wrench into everything and take 'Bama :D
lol....Notre Dame is NOT a slouch....97 ovr....6* prestige....somebody would settle for that depending on the pipeline states *cough*me*cough* lol
Naw man, go ahead and go with your original pick. I need all the help I can get at pick 12.Quote:

Nice. Have you ever got to talk shop with him?Quote:

Best guess right now would be Friday after release unless everyone feels comfortable doing so earlier.Quote:

Let me know how much time you'd need, I'd like to get started by the Sunday after launch - I figured since we will start seeing ratings tomorrow via TeamBuilder we'd be able to narrow down our top selections by launch date.Quote:

I shouldn't need much more than that. Anytime during the weekend should suffice. My friend leaves Thursday evening, so I should have Thursday night + Friday night to get a handle on the teams. I might even be ready by Friday night if I can decide what kind of offense I want to run before then :DQuote:

To that end, if you wanted to "kick off" the draft Saturday morning, instead of Friday night, that should allow me plenty of buffer.
Based on what I am seeing in teambuilder, some of the teams we were discussing really have no advantage except for maybe in recruiting. The depth on the big schools(Bama and LSU in particular) are not nearly as overrated as usual. The soph and fresh are not 80+ like they normally are. Most are in the low 70's to high 60's which is a very good thing IMO.
I'm not sure how accurate those rosters are as its still showing players on Texas' roster like it was on NCAA 12.Quote:

Is teambuilder live now?
I don't think so. It's still 2012 stuff.Quote:

Honestly, the best looking team on TB is ND. Quite a few VERY good Freshmen on the team. It seems as though they have adjust the way they rate players, and I love it. No more 85-90 overall sophomores on the elite teams. Will make recruiting matter from season 1 on.
Looking at the rosters, I would be pretty happy with whoever I get out of my teams. Leaning heavily toward the SEC though so I can use TCU in my OD.
Looking at Georgia, and they look solid. I'll have to recruit for my future gameplan though.
If Texas' offensive line plays like they are rated in this game....I'll be a happy man. Texas & LSU remain my top 2....with a handful of 3rd options.
Ah the hell with it, let's get it started. Since I'll be pissed if someone else plays with them..........
With the first pick in the 2013 draft, psuexv selects........
