OT: Coach T, a legend at The Citadel?

[HornedFrog Purple]

This is my FBCB game. I took over the Citadel and have managed to do this being lucky to get one *** player to come to my glorious military academy a season:

My all time record is 329-199. Yes I want to move on, but I waiting for a Big-12 or Texas school besides SMU! I am getting mad at my AD because he refuses to give me any more money over 5000 a month to recruit! Bah...

[General Mike]

Take the Rutgers job!

[Glengoyne]

I am going to have to pick up FBCB. In TDCB I too took over The Citadel job. FBCB appears to be more challenging, because in my game we had become became NCAA tourney regulars ten years down the road. The Citadel had gotten all the way to the round of eight by the time I moved on to greener pastures.

Does FBCB further restrict the recruiting ability of the Millitary academies?

Oh and good work, and GO BULLDOGS!

[HornedFrog Purple]

I don't think it further limits them in that way, but I play with academic suspension on plus 125 injury (goes from 0-200 I think)

I started out with a prestige rating of about 35 and through all these seasons have only managed to get it up to 42. The budget does restrict you in the sense that when you do get a nice recruiting coordinator/coaching staff a team with a higher budget will snag them from you.

If I have to sign more than 2 scholarships a season, I am in deep trouble trying to get quality to come to the 'del. The athletic director won't budge to increase the budget. He only did for one season and I had a whopping 7000 a month for that season!

It really is a challenge and pretty realistic. Any powerhouse school I want to play non-conference demands me to play at their place. Sometimes I can scrap a home-and-home with them.

I have gotten offers from Gonzaga a couple of times but I am still waiting...

As you can see my RPI is pretty impossible to get under 50 mainly because I could schedule 10 good schools with good prestige and still get slogged down by the Southern Conference.
