Jonesing for a TCY Dynasty (ie: Name your school)

[EagleFan]

I'm Jonesing to start up a TCY/FOF dynasty. Not a coaching dynasty but one following a recruit from bring recruited through into a possible pro career.

It's been a while since I did one of these and I know that they can be risky to do as the player could flop at some point.

Because of that I am looking at following several recruits. The question is how to pick them.

That brings me to this thread.

I'll pick from a list of high schools of your choosing. Let me know what high school you want me to add to my follow list.

It will be a little while in the making as I will actually get the dynasty going before I start posting (I have already gotten TCY to 2026, to get some history) and am catching FOF up, using the draft classes from each year. I went with fictional league from the start so the NFL history will be a short one but will be a history of its own.

Let me know what high school (or town) you would like me to include.

Galesburg High School, Galesburg IL (I don't think I've ever seen a decent recruit outta there).

[EagleFan]

Galesburg High School, Galesburg IL (I don't think I've ever seen a decent recruit outta there).

Quick check and I see 1 recruit from there.

6'5", 270 pound tackle. 409th ranked overall, 38th by position. 16th in the state and top ranked tackle in the state.

Depending on how many I get I may follow for a few recruiting classes.

Don't see that one, do see a Bayshore from there.

Timpview High School, Provo, UT

This isn't starting well. Don't see any from there.

Utah does have the #3 rated recruit (#2 rated QB) from Manti.

Not bad...2A School that is producing some minor D1 talent currently...

What about Clarence High School, Clarence, NY

[EagleFan]

Don't see that one, do see a Bayshore from there.

Funny...Bayshore has a lousey football program. Manatee has won 6 State Championships. Tommy Frasier was from Manatee...

Bayshore or Southeast will do if you have them...

[Coffee Warlord]

If Galesburg sucks (which ironically, you got a better recruit outta there than I think I ever have seen in any TCY game I've played)...is Palm Springs High School, Palm Springs, CA in there?

[BYU 14]

Unfortunately the High School I played at South HS in SLC closed a few years after I graduated, so I will go with schools I have coached at.

Cyprus HS, Magna UT
North Canyon HS, Phoenix, AZ
Westview HS, Avondale, AZ

[PackerFanatic]

Appleton West High School, Appleton, WI

[EagleFan]

I should have looked closer at Bayshore. Both from there are punters. One is ranked 354th nationally (9th punter nationally). I guess that would tie in to that team sucking as they have combined for over 40 punts in 4 games. :)

Don't see Southeast.

[EagleFan]

If Galesburg sucks (which ironically, you got a better recruit outta there than I think I ever have seen in any TCY game I've played)...is Palm Springs High School, Palm Springs, CA in there?

Palm Springs has a 6'0", 179 pound QB that is 531st overall nationally, 42nd QB nationally (67th overall in state and 7th QB in state).

Appleton West High School, Appleton, WI

Not seeing anything there.

This isn't working out very well. I may keep an eye on these schools and track them for a few seasons.

With that said I may start a different dynasty that I was thinking up. It's more of a fantasy draft competition where those involved have a "team" selected which will earn points towards their score similar to fantasy football. I would then sim through each week of their college and then pro career to crown a winner.

Though I could see doubling those numbers depending on how I would come up with doing the draft.

[PackerFanatic]

Not seeing anything there.

I figured :)

[Coffee Warlord]

Hey, you could always fire up the tried but true interactives. Lets us pick a recruit and track our guys. They always seem to die out after awhile, but always fun.

I actually like the fantasy football idea with the recruits. Trying to flesh it out a bit first.

[BYU 14]

Nothing in Cyprus.

North Canyon has a 6'1", 186 pound safety that is not ranked nationally but 46th in the state and 5th ranked safety in the state.

Cyprus usually never did have a lot :)

Westview may be listed in Phoenix or Goodyear in the game, but I know they are there :)
