Hey I will be home around 630 tomorrow so give me a few minutes before you advance to cuts. I have an athlete and a CB that I need to switch to FS.

Now that I'm starting to sober up a little. Tomorrow I want to not only get in the preseason, but get into the regular season. I'm off work tomorrow, so this is the most convenient time to set up everything for me (especially since the Monday night game sucks), so let's make this happen.

I have class tomorrow night. I need to switch some players' positions and I'll need to cut some people. I have to leave for class at 5 and won't get back until like midnight central time. If we can get done with position change and player cuts early tomorrow, then I can get my redshirts done and recruiting board set up and you can advance whenever. If not, I can do it when I get home and we can advance after that.

I have a couple of atheletes myself I need to switch and I won't be home till 630 or 7 myself...

im oversigned by about 14 players so i have a number of position changes and cuts to do... its fine if you want to do it all earlier (ill be home from the beach around 6-7) since i gave you my info urban... just shoot me a text or msg on here and ill tell you who to move and cut.

Send me your shit and I'll make the cuts for you. I don't want to wait around til midnight and I know that kid and a couple of the other guys can't wait that late. So send me your cuts and I'll do them. Position changes is already up.

Can we stay at position change until about 5. I will have mine finish by then

Yeah, I'm not advancing to cuts until around 7 or so, and I can extend it just a little past then if people give me a heads up

yeah 7 should be about the time I'll be able to get it in. I'll keep you posted

Alright, here's the tenative schedule for this evening. Make sure you have a plan to do your stuff (you can email me your stuff and I'll make sure it gets done) or it will be simmed.

7 p.m. - advanced to player cuts
9:30-10 p.m. - advance to preseason
12 midnight - the 2012 football season begins

Well, fuck. I guess I'm skipping class tonight. You plan to be able to get all the scheduling done in 2 hours? Good luck with that. If you want some help I can try to help you out since I'll be here.

I should be able to do them. Last year I did them in a rush. With 2 hours to do them tonight, it shouldn't be a problem. That's why I want to do them on this schedule, so that I get them worked out just how I want them.

Alright, will the schedule I have laid out work? Or do I need to fit somebody else in there?

Also, since you have the day off, you might want to take a look at the slider settings I posted in workers and play a couple games with them to see what you think. I think they would be a good slider set, especially with our elite teams.

Heisman Presentation
Chris Fowler: Hello and welcome to the 2011 Heisman and Rivals Award presentation. It's the culmination of the 2011 season, and before the 2012 season begins, we must find out who was the best of 2011.
Lee Corso: We already found out who the best team was and it turned out to be the Buckeyes. You like that don't you Kirk?
Kirk Herbstreit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: We have a long list of candidates that had tremendous seasons, and the voting showed that these guys all deserved a shot.
Corso: All except perhaps Terrelle Pryor and Marcus Robinson.....whoa, they got stiffed in the voting.
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: Excellent insight Kirk. We'll begin with the Rivals' Award for the best defensive player in the country. The voting was very tight among three deserving candidates.
Corso: I personally like what I saw out of Dre Kirkpatrick out of Alabama. I witnessed him play Florida twice, and though his stats weren't eye popping in those games, he helped the ole Crimson Tide win the ACC.
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: And what about the player that Florida had?
Corso: Oh boy was Jalani Jenkins a tackle machine. This guy was like that tacklenator, sent back in time to destroy offenses.
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: And then there's the sack machine from Texas?
Corso: Let me tell you some Kirk, this guy was fast, and I mean real fast....to the quarterback. 21 sacks, but none against Oklahoma and OSU, and that may hurt him.
Herbsteit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: Let's get to the voting. Here with the winner is Tom Peppernickle. He's the third-string fullback from the 1947 Harvard squad.
Peppernickle: It's an honor to be here. Hell, it's an honor to still be breathing at this age. I tell yah, I wouldn't want to get hit by any of these guys. And without further ado, the 2011 recepient of the Rivals' Award goes to.....Jelani Jenkins.
Fowler: Shocked Lee?
Corso: Maybe a little. These guys could have just been kissing the commissioners' ass to avoid a NCAA investigation, but Jenkins did deserve the award as well. Gotta give it up to the two runner-ups as well.
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: And now on to the award everyone has been talking about. Lee, this year's race involved a couple of guys that were out of the championship run, but still put up massive numbers.
Corso: It's gotta start with Shane Vareen from the Golden Bears. 1,000 yards rushing, 1,000 yards receiving, heck I bet he could throw the ball if they let him.
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: Well, I personally don't think Pryor deserved to win, Kirk, but that's a good opinion. And what do you think of Storm Johnson?
Corso: If he'd had the rock the whole year, I think he runs away with the award like he did other defenses. He was a backup until an injury thrust him into the spotlight, and he ran with it against WVU and VT to the tune of 433 yards and 4 TDs. Whoa.
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: And what about the others?
Corso: Well, A.J. McCarron had a really big year, but his numbers against the Gators probably hurt him in the voting. Still, he was able to guide his team to victory. Andrew Luck is another that impressed, but he really only had one test against Splff and the Golden Bears. That could come back to bite him.
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE!!!!
Fowler: No Kirk, I don't think Pryor will win, but let's go down to the field to famous Nascar driver Dick Trickle with the award presentation.
Trickle: I know a thing or two about going fast, and this year's winner does too. It's my great honor to present this year's Heisman Trophy to Shane Vareen from the University of California.
Fowler: Any comments Lee?
Corso: Deserving winner and wow did you see how close the voting was. He won by a single vote over Johnson from Miami. Both were clearly deserving.
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE????
Fowler: No Kirk, Pryor didn't win, but you know which team was the 2011 national champions?
Herbstreit: BUCKEYE, BUCKEYE, BUCKEYE!!!!!!!

About to try them now.

There's a new rule this year called the 'Jhawk rule'. You guys can check it out if you want input on it.

what's that?

It's on the first page in bold. It shouldn't affect anyone already in the dynasty.

wtf! every single one of the guys i recruited is in the mid to low 60's! even the 4 star guys i got... the fuck is wrong with the incoming rankings in this game!?

actually it looks like every 3 star guy i got was a minimum of 65 which i guess is better than last years class before the patch so its not to bad. still thought i had more gems than that oh well

I'm prolly gonna end up starting seven true freshmen. Another 4-5 should get some solid PT. We're young now but in a year or two we should be contenders.

Ill probably start a CB who was a JUCO guy that i stole from clark, 97 spd and he's a soph juco pretty happy about that! Other than that I've got pretty decent upperclassmen this year so no other freshman should have to start baring injury. Singletary the MLB is a 81 with 88 spd but he's behind my best player so he'll have a nice redshirt year hopefully.

Just wanna post this again so that everyone knows....

7 p.m. - advanced to player cuts
9:30-10 p.m. - advance to preseason
12 midnight - the 2012 football season begins
