My fault I mis read it. I thought you said you haven't played on the level yet. You can't be serious about the breaks being compared to lives. Maybe you can give me some things like what camera you use and what sliders you use. To me on default the plays are to effective. Run a play like high post or something and see if your cutter ever gets stopped. There is just something about the game that doesn't feel right or like the college game. So if you can help me with the feel, I may play a few more games before deciding. thanks

on the same thought as above last night i was simmed through most of my first year and had some tuff decisions to make. I was sanctioned by the ncaa and lost 2 scholarships which really hurt bad. One of the guys very interested in my program was a 6'9 6 star small forward from a juco with poor discipline.I could not resist I just couldn't and because of the scholarship loss I could only pick up 2 players instead of 3 and we were losing both centers and a pg(illinois) so i had to take a 5 star pg as my fr pg didn't look to hot and it was either of 2 four star centers with solid grades or the Juco 6 star.... I took the flyer on the 6 star and the BOY can PLAY.

nice J good moves to the rack... so we start the season and he goes for just under 30 his first game with 5-7 3's right.... then before the next game my man gets caught cheeting on a test with a cell phone. Because we lost schollies the ncaa is alread down my back and they want me to sit the kid for 16 games to keep their level of interest all the way down.... DAM


to me this is the best part of the game this year. Hilarious! me and my Ol lady were cracking up.. did I sit him ??? hell nah I'm tark the shark baby play ball!!! LOL

I didn't play last year but it is very noticable this year!

Lack of auto sub feature....Can't export draft class into Live....Cruddy looking crowd graphics....Poor team roster scouting....lack of distinction between good and bad teams at the higher skill difficulties (Wash St. giving Indiana trouble in Bloomington)...

Have you seen Indiana play lately?

um u guys that have this on xbox plz spread the word a couple minutes ago i was THE ONLY person online this is a good game and will be even better when rosters are done so plz spread the word and get ppl online, maybe even a league started with us here. Also theres no roster edit limit cuz the computer can auto name EVERY player , which means we should as well just tryin to clear that up for some ppl

I noticed that last night when I went online. I was schocked that there was only five people actually online in the game but there was not one person in the lobbies. I've never seen a new game have no one online. Thats just crazy.

MaddenLivER, do you know what the game speed default is (the number setting for it)? Is there a way to revert to all default settings if you've changed them?
