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.
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.
