    not sure, i would think new recruiting pool would be fixed after the patch, but i doubt our current kickers at time of patch will be fixed...i think it 'could' be remedied by sliders but im not sure.

    My kicker would be a senior. And I could only get a * to replace him.

    Well I'll likely be bringing in a walk-on punter this year. I think my kick is a soph or junior not sure.

    Shouldn't. For kickers, I imagine it will simply effect the next recruiting class that's generated (ie next Preseason) and awareness will simply be taken into account on next progression stage. So basically I'd say the furthest we should get before the next patch is finish offseason recruiting.

    As for kickers/punters, both of mine are JRs but I'm closing to signing a decent prospect as project kicker if needed.

    My next 2 weeks are going to be tough. I got Texas, and then I got OU right after that, and one of those teams are gonna be number one. But the team is doing much better than I thought we were going to do. I definitely could be sitting at 4-3 instead of 6-1. I'm hoping we can at least split the Texas and OU game, especially because we have OU at home.

    There is no reason in the world to keep banning any of the Commits. They're easily beatable this year.

    It was last year as well. If you looked at Alabama's roster in NCAA 10 you'll understand what I mean and why Papa's pass defense was so good.

    It may have been a big deal last year and I didn't notice. But I saw a couple things reviewing the YouTube G posted, and a couple things in my own game today against Purdue ...

    Though then I see Russ's blog where it says AWR has nothing to do with playing defense (and that stuff is controlled with MCV / ZCV) that makes me wonder. Yes, the two guys I saw make mistakes were lower in AWR and lower in MCV/ZCV, but I find it much easier to believe their 40 AWR was the cause than slightly lower MCV/ZCVs.

    I think I remember reading that no matter how much you played underclassmen they progressed all the same in rankings. I didn't see anything in the blog post that addressed this. Anyone know if this was fixed or is going to be looked into?

    I just want to throw out there that Papa really put a lot of work into his team. When I first saw his offense I think I was in shock at how they looked the entire drive lol.

    Trust me when I say that changing everyone to your own concept is 20 times easier than trying to recreate actual players.

    Just want to reiterate my point here. Call Run Right against a running play to the right, and you can still get beaten if it's well blocked. Call Run Mid against a toss to the right, and you're screwed. No reason to ban them this year,they're really risk/reward.
