Just another reason why I think its time for Brown to go. That being said it looks as though Harsin and Applewhite have been a lot better as of late.Quote:

People forget the value of athletic quarterbacks. Look at Barry Switzer's interview on CFB Daily. He said had a conversation w/ coach Stoops about the value of athletic qb's, and the OU offense will look very different next year:nod: That was the only thing stopping me from running an OD with them
I don't think people forget their value, per se. But I do think there is a struggle to assess their value, especially in comparison to players that are already on campus. I would imagine that the Texas staff looked at Manziel, and then looked at David Ash and Case McCoy. All three were :3star: prospects. Obviously, hindsight is 20/10 on that one. Manziel was ranked behind others including Teddy Bridgewater and Auburn's Kiehl Frazier. In fact, not only were all three :3star:s, but they all had very, very similar ratings according to Rivals.
I kinda of enjoyed watching Bridgewater this year more the Manziel but that is simply because I struggle watching the love fest of the SEC :DQuote:

I just noticed the SEC is back at A+ for conference prestige....hopefully we enjoy the "poll boost" in the rankings next season.
I don't recall if it was Week 14 or 15 that I noticed, but the difference was like 0.1 average. Crazy. Not sure if I like that the conference prestige is a regimented A+, A, B+, and not a relative rating based on how close your Avg is. If one conference is 10.0 and one is 10.1, shouldn't they both have the same rating?Quote:

Just messing with yeah. Yeah there wasn't much difference talent wise. Agreed :up:
So, I went into Practice Mode tonight and it actually brought my custom PB in with me. When did that start?
I noticed in week 1 of 2015.
I have tried it multiple times and it has not worked for me. :(
Depending on when you last tried, ryby, I'd say try again. Worked several times for me last night.
I can't figure out the combination but it has something to do with offseason and presumably getting a new Offensive Coordinator. I'm wondering if it doesn't happen whenever you get a new system-generated coordinator... they just inherit your custom playbook.Quote:

I just tried yesterday.Quote:

Just a thought, but how would everyone feel about doing an awards vote? We could do a preseason one to try to guess the Heisman and others before the season and then do one after the season for players and coaches and whatever else we want.
I'm game.
I'm game
I'm in... we'd just need someone to admin & organize it (post stats, setup polls, etc.)
I was thinking in the Preseason we could vote on:
Heisman:
Maxwell:
O'Brien:
Walker:
Biletnikoff:
Mackey:
Lombardi:
Bednarki:
Butkus:
Thorpe:
Coach of the Year:
I was thinking we could do one before the season and then have a vote after the season considering how bad the game is at picking them sometimes. You should be able to pick one of your own players Preseason, but then after the season give your top 3 without your guy. If he is good enough, he should get plenty of votes.
One thing I was thinking was basically basing it off of JUST user games. I don't think a player should get rewarding for dominating against the cpu, but then shitting the bed against the users. What does everyone think? Anything you would like to see added? Also, we could do a private vote at the end if people would prefer but I would rather just post it and maybe give a little bit of an explanation of why you picked a guy.
I second each of your nominations.Quote:

Considering we are still in week 1:glare:, we can start now. No user games have been played at the moment and at worst people will vote when only 1 has been played so far. OB, do you want me to start a thread for it?
Go ahead and start one, I'm still at work, I'll jump on and take a look at it further once I get home.
Do we need a new sub-section so that separate threads/polls can be created for each award?
Would we prefer to have this in the Powerhouse History Subforum? If so could one of you guys with all the power move it.
I like the idea, but not sure I'll participate. I have enough on my mind with four user games to start the season :D
How about you play one of them??
... the game was already over when I posted that. :PQuote:

I've found that when I run into it, if I clear my cookies/cache for the site, it works immediately after. In Chrome, it's easy to clear just for all easports.com sites... Settings > Advanced Settings > Content Settings > All cookies & site data... From there, just filter down to easports and then delete any entries that return.Quote:

This has typically not worked for me.Quote:

And clearing the cookies worked like a charm.

What sliders do you guys use in your league? I'm trying to find a good AA set.
Not sure what we based them off of but they've been tweaked a couple of times.Quote:
