Re: The Rise
OFFSEASON PLAYER IMPROVEMENT REPORT With the custom regression/progression system, our training isn't quite as straight forward as it is normally. First, here are the position changes: Cole Macek: FB to MLB Bryce Holland: C to LG Alex Aukerman: OLB to MLB Scott Washle: MLB to OLB Elijah Riley: SS to CB Jalen Sharp: CB to FS Zach Scott: CB to SS This offseason there were some surprising outcomes due to the work ethic system, all results can be found below, but we'll summarize some key improvements and disappointing results below. Biggest Improvements DE Rod Stoddard II - Has the highest work ethic rating on the team, and it shows, the now sophomore DE jumped from a 63 to a 74 OVR. This is a healthy improvement for a position that is set to start two seniors. OLB Bayle Wolf - Wolf was a backup last season, and despite not being in a position battle at all at the end of the season, his +7 to a 77 OVR puts him in a spot to start at LOLB this season, despite returning starter Kenneth Brinson returning. QB Ahmad Bradshaw, RB Kell Walker, FB Andy Davidson, DE John Voit - All four of these guys are happy to have top 10 work ethic grades on the team, and they all had good seasons last year to boot. WR Luke Peterman - Peterman, who saw 0 receptions last year, saw a +6 jump to a 71 OVR, with the rest of the WR group doing literally nothing in training camps, Peterman finds himself in line for tons of PT this year. Biggest Disappointments OT Rick Kurz - He was in contention to start, but dropped -2 OVR points to 67. CB Mike Reynolds - Our #1 corner for most of the 2016 season didn't improve at all and remains at 72 OVR and his starting spot is in danger. FS Rhyan England/possible starting SS's - Rhyan England only gained 1 OVR point and is in danger of not keeping his starting job. Zach Scott and Boomer Bakich jr. both regressed and seem to have passed the starting SS job to incoming freshman Rob Roy. Misc Stats The average gain was 2.6 OVR points 1 player gained more than 10 OVR rating 13 players gained more than 6 OVR rating 7 players gained just 1 OVR rating 10 players regressed 7 players had no OVR change Full results & notes: |

Re: The Rise
ARMY 2017 SEASON PREVIEW LOOKING BACK Army's 9-4 season was a dream - a win over Navy, a bowl win, and the Commander-in-Chief Trophy - but the number crunchers will dig into that record and note they played the worst strength of schedule in the country. Their three best wins - Navy, Air Force and Tulsa - combined for 19 wins. They gave Duke their only win of the year. QB Ahmad Bradshaw and FB Andy Davidson both ran for 1,000 yards - and both return. They return one of their defensive stars - DE John Voit - who racked up 11 sacks last year. LOOKING FORWARD Army 2017 Football Schedule 8-29 at #13 Washington (Friday, 6:00PM) 9-6 vs Duke (3:30PM) 9-13 at #1 Ohio State (Noon) 9-20 vs Buffalo (Noon) 9-27 vs Temple (8:00PM) 10-4 at BYU (2:30PM) OFF 10-16 at Tulane (Thurs., 8:00PM) 10-25 vs UTEP (8:00PM) 11-1 vs Air Force (Noon) * OFF 11-15 at Georgia (Noon) 11-22 vs Rice (Noon) OFF 12-6 Navy in Philadelphia (3:00PM) * *Commander-in-Chief Trophy Game Looking at Army's 2017 schedule - it looks much more challenging on paper. The Black Knights also branch out this year with 2 home night games, 2 non-Saturday games, and 2 away night games. Breaking it down: Washington - a playoff contender. Duke - should be much improved, but still defeated Army last year for only win. Ohio State - defending national champs who barely lost anyone. Buffalo - a team Army handled last year. Temple - looking to bounce back and get revenge on a bitter week 1 defeat last year. BYU - a challenging place to play and a good team. Tulane - Option vs Option - Tulane, in its second year of its option attack looks to be much improved. UTEP - a team that Army fell to early last season Air Force - Air Force lost some key pieces but always seems to bounce back Georgia - Part of the classic SEC "tune-up" week, the Bulldogs could be ranked at this time. Rice - Seems to match up well with Army on paper. Navy - You don't think they want revenge? CEILING PROJECTION: 9-3 (losses to Washington, Ohio State, Georgia) GOOD CHANCE PROJECTION: 6-6 (losses to the above + BYU, Duke and Air Force or Navy) ARMY 2017 DEPTH CHART Army offense: Led by senior QB Ahmad Bradshaw (734 pass yards, 1285 yards, 14 total TD) and FB Andy Davidson, the Army offense returns 8 starters, including its top six rushers from last season. New starters include JUCO transfer Les Studholme II, who looks to replace Edgar Poe, who led the team in catches in 2016. The other two are on the left side of the offensive line with freshman Matt Allegrotto and converted center senior Bryce Holland at left guard. Coach A.J. Jackson has stated he would love to pass the ball more in 2016 - something Army did without a single INT last year. Luke Peterman shot up the WR depth chart this spring, but it seems to be a mess behind him and Studholme. Quintin Parker was much improved as well, and hopes to make a bigger impact at TE. The rushing game should be largely the same - QB Ahmad Bradshaw, FB Andy Davidson. The coaching staff hopes they see good production from a 3rd and 4th player - safe bets for this would be RB Kell Walker and freshman FB David Poreda III. Army starts five seniors on offense, including four on the offensive line. Army defense: While Coach Jackson plays no role in the defense, it is a senior-heavy starting 11. There are five seniors in the front seven - and the group sees a handful of new starters. Both MLBs are new, kinda - Alex Aukerman moves over from OLB to MLB, and Cole Macek moves from FB back to MLB, and make up the inside. Bayle Wolf took over the starting LOLB spot from Kenneth Brinson, who is now a reserve LB. Elijah Riley moved from safety to corner and starts over now nickel CB Mike Reynolds. FS Jalen Sharp moved from CB and starts there now. True freshman Rob Roy is the team's opening day starting SS. Meanwhile, the defensive line is unchanged up front with three seniors leading the way, the strength of the Army defense is easily it's front seven. This defense bailed out Army and put up some fantastic stats in 2016 - they hope to repeat as a top 5 red zone defense again this year. The season is soon to kickoff and Army is riding the high of 2016 but they hope it doesn't come crashing back down to reality. Last edited by Iron Dragon; 11-29-2016 at 09:51 PM. |

Re: The Rise
Can just see someone naming their kid Edgar Poe. Love the custom improvement. At an overall improvement of what, like 2.6 points? That's significantly lower than real teams. Which is a built-in help to not becoming too dominant. Mine is a little higher, but not much. There's really no argument against its use unless people just don't want to put in the time. For me, it has been well worth it. A little effort for a huge payoff in realism. If anything, I have been surprised how limited the improvement has been even for players with a very high work ethic rating. They roll 2 and 3 improvement a lot. LOL. I've had very bad players become very good, but I've never had an average player become a 95-99 or something. and I've done about one full improvement cycle with Idaho. Good luck in this upcoming season, Dragon.

Damn that's a tough schedule. Excited for Roy to be a day one starter, hopefully he doesn't give up too many big plays lol

Re: The Rise
Time to play catch up, thanks for checking in everyone...
Roy was one of the big winners from the custom system, he watched all of his competition slack off in practice. |

Re: The Rise
How do you assign the Work Ethic rating for each player? Do you just do this for your team, or did you do all teams??
