following, yeah, having a chise not winning the NC every year n keeping it realistic keeps it fun any chance of cap's next year?
Unfortunately this is an online dynasty so I can't
But I was thinking of possibly doing something different. I could have you guys sign up for CAPs like normal, but you would automatically have to play for Duke. I would take a recruit that I signed who plays your preferred position, and edit his name and equipment and such to make him exactly how you want. I think that could work, right?
The 2012 Season An Overview of What Happened in 2012
Duke Football
QB Sean Renfree lies motionless after a sack. Renfree had broken his vertebrae, ending his playing career.
Record: 8-5 (5-3) Outcome: L 17-42 vs Rutgers in Champs Sports Bowl Knowledge & Faith (MVP): MLB Austin Gamble Summary: From the highs (a 35-33 nail-biting victory over #6 Miami) to the lows (an ugly 30-27 loss to North Texas), 2012 was a season of adversity - both overcoming it and failing to do so. For quarterback Sean Renfree, it was a season of loss. In a Week 5 game against Boston College, Renfree was nailed after a pass and landed awkwardly on his neck. He didn't get up for 20 minutes, and was eventually carted off the field. Renfree was later diagnosed with a broken vertebrae, and will never play another down of football in his life.
Though tragic, junior signal-caller Sean Schroeder took advantage of the opportunity, throwing for over 3300 yards and 31 touchdowns to only 14 interceptions in Coach Orlovsky's air-it-out offense - an adjustment from his more balanced, pro-style offense of years past. Senior halfback Desmond Scott had a decent year on the ground with over 550 yards rushing and a 4.0 yards/carry, it was the work of wideout Tony Foster, running back/wide receiver Josh Snead, and tight end Dominique Andrews who really helped Schroeder make the offense go. Foster had nearly 1100 receiving yards and 17 receiving touchdowns; Snead had 950 yards and 5 receiving touchdowns to go along with 292 rushing yards and 3 scores on the ground; and Andrews had 969 receiving yards plus 6 touchdowns.
Defensively, the Blue Devils struggled for the 2nd season in a row under defensive coordinator Josh Davis. The secondary in particular failed to cover anyone really, but the run defense was also very suspect. A huge bright spot, however, was the play of senior middle linebacker Austin Gamble. Gamble's spectacular stat-line included 134 tackles, 20 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, 4 INTs, and 1 touchdown. In fact, Gamble's performance over the season was enough to earn him the heralded Bednarik Award - the first player to do so in Duke history. Junior defensive end Justin Foxx also had a season to be proud of, racking up 11 sacks - good for 3rd in the nation.
Unfortunately, the Blue Devils were unable to improve upon last year's record of 8-5 thanks to tough losses such as the aforementioned North Texas debacle. Duke also failed to win their bowl game, getting crushed by Rutgers in an embarrassing performance. Next year will be another battle with big-time contributors such as Tony Foster, Austin Gamble, Jordan Byas, and Desmond Scott leaving the program.
