Start as western kentucky, switch to an independent, schedule the toughest teams possible and make a rule that you can only recruit those already interested in your school. You shouldn't be able to win a national championship for quite a few years and you probably won't even go to a bowl game for the first year or maybe two as long as your sliders are good, I haven't used those, I use my own.
I enjoyed using WKU and he is right you won't go to a bowl game for a year or two....
