Nice read! I love to follow these legacy updates and envy you that you have the time to write out all of these details. Kudos


I gather that you updated your sliders and started a new legacy. What was it about your old legacy that you didn't like? Was the scoring out of sync? Too many steals?

I apologize if you documented this in your old thread, but I have been out of commission for a couple of weeks.

The shooting percentages were kinda out of whack plus VMI totally destroyed THE Ohio State Buckeyes by 20 points, on the road. VMI was 7-0 and after helping piper by testing and retesting I found that his sliders were much better than mine.

Nice to see you back up and around.

Cool, VMI's Marching Band just passed by in the Rose Bowl parade.

Any chance you can track Tennessee-Martin in the OVC for me?

Re: 12/1/07 -- Army (3-2) @ VMI (1-4)

Good job on beating the team you coached last year.

I wanted to switch to another school this time around instead of trying to follow THE Bob Knight's career.

I'm just glad that Reggie Williams got out of his slump for the game and that Mosley did a good job filling in for my regular starting pf, Brownfield. Brownfield has been playing with a broken finger since the second game of the season and I just now decided to have him rest it. Unfortunately for me, though, is that I only have 12 players (no reserve spots) and he and Mosley are my only power forwards. I'm going to have to play "small" for a while and have small forward Travis Holmes play more minutes and possibly give either him or Williams some time in the pf spot.

Thanks, as always, for reading and the reply.
