FBCB: Your performance is the stuff of legends.

[korme]

After many years of being ranked in the top 5, many years #1 going into the NCAA tourney and falling short, in 2019, ranked #6 nationally and as a #2 seed, we took a team that has every player returning for 2020 all the way and won the championship. Perfect chance to go back back-to-back. Woot. And instead of the AD being delighted, he tells me I have the stuff of legends. That seriously just made this career.

Where the difficult rise to glory started.

You had Seton Hall in the Sweet Sixteen in just five years? Not bad...

[korme]

No, I started this career in 1950 and simmed to 1994 where I took over, and joined Seton Hall in early 2000's, though not exact without the game open.

[korme]

FWIW of the many teams available offering me jobs that year, I picked Seton Hall because I went to look at their team history and saw only one award. Big East Champions (1958). Some 40 years later, the Pirates were again B.E. champs. I love challenges.

Nice RPI Shorty....beat up the bad schools in a low RPI conference, keep a high prestige level, and trial and error til you win the big one

[korme]

heh, you mean bad schools in high rpi? i just generally randomly schedule teams from 50-90

Is your conference movement off?

Assuming that's the case, you can't really do much about your RPI with a perpetually weak conference schedule, even if you schedule tougher games on your own.

I turned it off and turned it on when I started taking over.

heavy, I found a bug. At training camp, I had already gotten my 2 recruit spots filled and committed, so everyone else of course lost interest in Seton Hall.

But as expected, after training camp, 3 of my players are leaving early. But since everyone already has no interest in Seton Hall, I virtually have no chance of filling up the rest of my scholies (now 3 extra)

[MrBug708]

You can still get someone Shorty, it's not a bug. You just wont get a 4 star to suddenly think you are popular now that a scholarship has opened up

[korme]

No, Bug, lsiten. When you have 1 remaining and then a player leaves, all is good, great, grand. But when I have 0 scholarships and you click recruiting and it shows INTEREST: NONE, it doesn't change back to Average/Good/Very Good/Very Low when more scholies open up for me.

I actually figured out that while it says interest none, they still have an interest, as I got 2 more guys to sign who apparently had 0 interest, but sorting on them by interest they came to the top, so obviously they still did, it is just hidden or coated with the None Interest. Turns out it can be a small tweak to reapply the old interest ratings once more scholies open.

[MrBug708]

I know what you are talking about Shorty

The screen doesn't update until the end of the month. When November starts (with training camps) you have used your total number of scholarships. The recruiting actions won't take place until the end of the month. That is when kids will readjust their interest in you, based on the actions you take and whether you have any additional ships available.

[korme]

Nope, still said None months afterwards and before rounding up the extra 3.
