If anyone wants or plans to build their team, I've built mine and would love to see some on-the-field action against a user. So far, it feels like this is already going to be a special team and I can't wait to see what they look like in a few years.Quote:

Agreed... I even went so far as to tote along a 6'7 1-star QB for the majority of the season just because I thought he looked interesting. In the end, I never even scouted him but held onto him with the idea that I might eventually give him a look.
Looks like recruiting to fit with play style is the real deal.
I notice that this season, I have attracted a lot of hybrid LB/DE prospects.
OLBs with good passrush move ratings, but can also play in space.
In NCAA 12, I couldnt find these kind of players worth a damn. I had to convert athletic DE's.
Yes and the best part on my end is that I only had 2 needs to fill so that made it a free for allQuote:

Geez Commish! Thanks for the schedule! Why not just put a NFL team as my week 4 opponent, after I get through this nice, 3 game ringer. :)
Video Please. Thank you. :P

These results were repeatable across playbook styles, including Multiple and Air Raid."
Vomiting as I review the ND-Texas game tape :sick:
So, this isn't exactly how I envisioned this going down ... but I'm retiring from the OD, effective tonight.
The short summary is that I'm in the middle of moving out of my apt, and the OD simply takes up too much time that I can't afford to spend while I move out. Plus, after I move, there's currently no guarantee that I'll be in a place with stable Internet (or my TV, for that matter). So I might be forced to retire next week anyway. While I considered going autopilot, it's not fair for me to hold onto a spot that someone else could fill and get to play with all of you.
If there's an open spot once my situation stabilizes, I'll be back in a heartbeat.
As I told you this afternoon Jeff, hate to see you go man. Hopefully you can get everything sorted out quick so you can come back soon.Quote:

I'll be sure to let you know how things progress, OB.
I know, now hurry back!Quote:

That sounds good....haven't signed on into AIM in a good minute.
