*OFFENSE
-no user catches
-no excessive scrambling, undesigned qb rollouts, curl routes, read options, etc
-mix up your play calling
-goalline only allowed inside of either 5 yardline
-no running no huddle after incomplete pass (if you do you must call timeout or take delay of game)
-"4/5 vert" or "all slant" plays (like the ones you can quick audible to) shouldnt be ran more than twice in any game
***no all read option offenses... read options are allowed but shouldnt be a big part of your run game, I dont find them unrealistic or cheesy but in this game they are overpowered and take away from the challenge.. for example if you take Auburn you can run a spread offense with 90% runs without running all read options
*DEFENSE
-can not switch to play the ball in the air
-no nano blitzes
-no run commits allowed
-shifting dline, lbs, and dbs ARE allowed BUT NO CONSTANT SHIFTING BEFORE THE SNAP (the pointless nonstop shifts)
-can not use a 1-5-5 defense because it has the same shifting pre snap
-only manually move 1 player before the snap, cannot be past the LB level (dont walk up to the line, mostly to prevent nanos)
4TH DOWN
-you can go for it on 4TH AND 1 anytime past the 50 (winning or losing)
-(no exceptions, no "no mans land")
-4TH QUARTER you can go for it on 4th down anywhere ONLY IF YOURE LOSING, if you're up you can go for it 4th and 1 past the 50 (if its a USER GAME you can be aggressive in the 4th just keep it realistic)
-no "pooch" punts (if you dont want your opponent to return it just punt it out of bounds)
VS CPU
-if your QB has 5 or more carries in any game there will be sanctions
-this rule is to prevent users from playing the cpu different because no one is watching
CLOCK:
-late games with a big lead I expect your backups to be in
-there is NO specific point limit, if it looks like youre padding stats I'll call you out
««««« Preseason »»»»»
ROSTER:
-ANY cuts, redshirts, etc are allowed with Freshman through Seniors
RECRUITING:
-NO athletes can be recruited
-anyone who has you top 5 can be recruited
-anyone who is in your pipeline
COACHING TREE:
-coaching tree will not change for the HC, no xp points will be used
-points for OC/DC may be added whenever
NO CUSTOM PLAYBOOKS:
-I see too many people run the same plays over and over with them
FORUM:
-use the discussion thread for game write ups or just post the score following a game
-not everyone uses the NCAA site on their phone so I want there to be more than one place to follow the scores and games around the league
-I will also post results from other user's games
««««« Offseason »»»»»
-switching teams will be allowed at any point if a job is offered
-PLAYERS LEAVING any player who declares round 1-4 can not be convinced
