Im hoping they have a good season also but the odds are against them they only have 9 Sr. and the only thing that will help me in recruiting for vandy is location and Academic prestige.

well let me provide some optimism for you my friend.

qb - nickson and adams return. nickson looked very promising in 06 but was hurt most of last year. if he comes back and is just equal to his 06 play then this year could be good. adams stepped in last year and played well. he's a good game manager. nothing too spectacular but can get the job done.

rb - jennings returns for his senior year. last year he was trying to come back from an acl tear. (maybe not acl but it was for sure a season ending knee injury.) he's our work horse and short yardage guy. but he can have spurts and do damage for 7 or 8 yards. hawkins is a more shifty back and has long play capability. he will probably emerge as the starter. depending on qb play, hawkins could end up running for close to 1000 yards. reeves was a r.s. freshmen last year but has potential. miller is little guy that could surprise people as well.

wr. yes we lose probably the best sec receiver of all time in bennett, but we have a stable of receivers. washington is out this year with a knee injury but no worries. george smith is the leader. wheeler and walker will be a play makers. umoh redshirted last year, but according to rivals was a pretty decent recruit. john cole is coming in this year and may be one of the few true freshmen. runs a 4.4 and a lot of people believe he may end up being a stud that wasn't heavily recruited out of high school. then we have andrew diomande, a transfer from clemson. he is the wild card of the wr's. i believe he's from the miami area and was a solid guy out of high school. i really think we have had the best receiving corps in the sec the past few seasons.

so there are my qb, rb, and wr summaries. should i make you feel better about your dynasty for 09 and talk about the rest of the team?

Re: Five Toughest NCAA Football 09 Dynasty Jobs

yea that sounds all good kinda but Vandy will not win any games w/ their talent. Games will be won w/ coaching, discipline and heart. Because other teams in the SEC are reloading their Magnums while. Vandy is refilling their hopper w/ paintballs.

I am currently in a dynasty with Duke, (after being fired from Tulane) the first year I went 7-6, and this year I am 5-1. It's hard to recruit as the article says but I do the best I can. I get a stud linebacker or a defensive end here and there, but the past two years I have loaded up on fast skill players and smart QB's.

coaching? i'd say we have a pretty good coach and staff

discipline? that's a done deal. one of the reason's i'm a proud vandy fan

heart? when you play for a losing program yet come out and give it your all every day and play, i'd say you definitely have heart.

maybe i'm too optimistic

Re: Five Toughest NCAA Football 09 Dynasty Jobs

why ND not on this list. they are the worst team in college history

Re: Five Toughest NCAA Football 09 Dynasty Jobs

This article hits home with me. Starting a Dynasty with a Doormat is what I do... every year. Here's my take.

North Texas isn't so bad. You can draw in a lot of that abundant local talent with a winning record against the Sun Belt.

Same goes with Florida International...

Vandy can be tough... there is not much talent in Tennessee, and UT and Memphis will draw most of it... but having the recruiting pitch of "Conference Prestige" (NG) is a big help...

Syracuse is actually pretty good to start with. Eeek out a .500 season to start, but you can recruit New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and ALL the New England States ... PLUS the Cuse is in a BCS conference, so they have better bowl tie ins (better lower tier bowl games helps recruiting). Syracuse is the Sleeping Giant of this group.

The toughest ones are EMU, Temple, and Utah State.

**EMU... well, they stink. The MAC is tougher than the Sun Belt... and they've got to compete with Michigan, MSU, CMU, and WMU for local talent....

***Utah State well, they stink too, and talking about a bad recruiting state!

***Temple - over the past several versions of the game they've been my starter team of choice. Competing in the MAC is a little bit of a reprieve, but there are some tough teams there. Recruiting?... Pitt, Penn state, Rutgers, are hard to recruit against... plus Maryland and West Virginia... suprised me too, but I lose a lot of recruits to those schools.

Thanks for this list. It's really good since my dynasty will be a rebuilding one.

Re: Five Toughest NCAA Football 09 Dynasty Jobs

Idaho is tough but, the conference isn't that hard so, if you play the games and not sim you should be able to get some wins. Utah St, San Jose St, La Tech, in conference aren't juggernauts nor are out of conference games teams like Western Mich. and Idaho St(1aa). If you can win most of those games and maybe get lucky with a win or two like at San Diego St. or at home vs. New Mexico St. you can start to make a move up in a conference where only Fresno and Boise are the only really good teams.

As for recruiting, I hit the state of Washington hard, get any Idaho kids that Boise St doesn't get, check out Oregon, and hit California for the left over speed guys. I'm usually able to generate some decent classes with that philosophy.

I'm glad the dome is in this year so I can actually play with them.

Re: Five Toughest NCAA Football 09 Dynasty Jobs

I think it's easier to turn around bad teams in bad conferences quicker then bad teams in good conferences.

If your North Texas you're also playing teams that are not that good, you can end up having a winning record, get recuits in and go to bowl games. If your a team like Vanderbilt, or Baylor you are in a conference with some of the elite teams in the nation and it's hard to build up.

Good article...Ya ISU and Baylor will lose like three games in a row all losing by like 7 points or less..shoot Baylor put OU in double OT about two yrs ago and OU also had a hell of a time with ISU last year.

Que? Other then 2005 the year you are refering too, Baylor has bene horrible in Big 12 play. That year they had a shot at a Bowl Game and were pretty much in every game that season except the Texas game (even though they lost to Tech 28-0 it was close until the 4th quarter) So not sure where you're getting they lose three games in a row by like 7.

Baylor, Duke and Vandy are defiantly the three worse BCS programs in College football.

LOL@ me arguing that my team is one of the worst

Chris Sanner checks in this week with a look at what the five toughest jobs to take over in NCAA Football's dynasty mode will be. Check out his article, Five Toughest NCAA Football 09 Dynasty Jobs.

I'll agree with Duke being #1. It is hard not to get fired unless you are playing all the games.

North Texas is hard? No way. Small schools in California, Texas, Florida, and Ohio are simple to turn into powerhouses. Your recruit pool is so deep that other teams in your conference can't keep up.
