Last year I did quite a bit of Roster editing on NCAA 2003 (I helped out Blacklover and DLindler with their roster files) and I did my own Madden 2003 rosters-(which were available here and on maddenmania) ---some of you guys may remember.

As one of the Roster editor guys in the community, I have one question that I have been dying to get answered.

Can you edit players positions (ie TE to WR etc..)and/or the player classifications (ie Freshmen to Soph)

This is super important info considering the roster sizes are still at 55.

thanks...

I could be wrong, but I'm 95% sure Jeff said they still can't be changed. Maybe the other guys heard differently.

Thanks Clay!

I'm not sure If I was clear in my questioning. I read BK's assement of the improvements in blocking as far as traps and screens go.

What I was referring to is the ability to use the right analog stick after the snap to direct blockers and receivers. Will we see this in NCAA 2004?

BK, Clay -

Thanks for the write-up and pics, respectively. I'm definitely more excited about NCAA ...

Thanks for the info Steve,

Thats bad news if true. I wonder why they still keep us from editing that stuff? I guess they must be worried that someone would edit everyone to SR and then leave a team empty at the end of a season. It probably would crash the game or something--lol!

Oh well, At least I know what to expect when the game comes out---hours of editing frustration!

I have 2 months to plan how I will get around this!

No...no playmaker control.

yeah i wanted to know about this too, i remember editing some rosters and players were in the wrong positions or changed positions and i couldn't change what pos. they played.

Jeff kinda smirked and mentioned the SI cover with Gamble listed as a CB. I don't know what that means as far as two way playing, but he did say you can't chance Year or Position at this point.

Went to the mall and put my money down on NCAA 2004. Now I just play the waiting game.

TIc Toc............. Tic Toc.............Tic Toc......... Tic Toc

The SI stuff is terrific!

Was there any indication that it would be included in the other EA titles?
