Columbus - Nowhere To Go But Up (A TCY/FOF Dynasty)

[TurnerONU22]

TCY

For my TCY team, I started with the Solecismic conference and modified it to be the Ohio Athletic Conference, a D3 Football league. The 8 teams I have used are Wilmington, Baldwin-Wallace, John Carroll, Muskingum, Ohio Northern, Otterbein, Mount Union, and my team, the Capital Crusaders. Capital, which is located just 5 minutes outside of Columbus in Bexley, OH, is the school where I'm currently attending (as a Junior). A bigger challenge in this game would be if I could make Mount Union as dominant as they currently are in Division 3. However, my goal is to see if I can bring Capital to the top of the division, and possibly, to the National Championship.

FOF

For my FOF team, I did a relocation of Baltimore and put them here in Columbus, leaving the AFC North to be Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Columbus. Our nickname will be the Destroyers, named after the current AFL team here. However, there is one little caveat. To relocate the team to Columbus, I had to release every player that is currently on the roster, so players like Jamal and Ray Lewis, Kyle Boller, ect... are now free agents. This first season will be practically impossible with almost no talent. Here's hoping for a good QB to come over from TCY.

Next up.....a quick overview of both rosters

This roster is UGLY!!! We have very little talent to go around, with no good options at QB. However, Edwin Koss could help us this year at RB. Our line looks pretty good, with two solid centers (one who will play out of positon) and some potential at G. Our scout sucks at DL and LB, so I'm not sure who will actually be good there. Butterfield stands out at CB, but he has no endurance. The safeties are a good group, one that should help us through are first couple years.

We can kick the ball pretty well, and that's about it. I picked up some decent safeties, nose tackles (we're playin the 3-4), and tight ends. Other than that, this team is gonna be very very rough. I'm lookin at no more than 1 or 2 wins. Again, the fingers are crossed for a solid guy to come from TCY.
