There are no "Names" that are set for a certain race bud, let this die before you dig into a really bad hole.

Not gonna front. I change the race of players a lot. Feels weird to go into a new recruiting class and notice half of the CBs, WRs, and RBs are white. It's not anything I fault EA for though. Just allow me the ability to go and edit it.

Find me a white player named Antoine or Tyrone and I will. I don't see how it is even remotely close to racist when it's very clear certain cultures use names that others don't. Explain to me how this is taboo to speak about? I'm not saying ANYTHING negative about any race whatsoever. That's like if when people assume I'm Italian because of my last name I called them racist. Ridiculous.

THANK YOU for including previous records. I'm the type that will write down my record every year in a notepad to help keep the immersion alive. I hate being 5 years into a dynasty and I can't remember what my previous records were, or my rivals records, or who won what bowl games. If they actually implement those records into dynasty in stat overlays during games, it would really help.

*goes to finish reading*
I wish they'd keep all-time stats for each of my players as well. I'm tired of having to manually keep them in a spreadsheet after every season is over.

I fault them for it considering this wasn't the case in NCAA 12 and was in 13.

I imagine EA could be hit with a lawsuit if they separated names and positions by race. I think they're just trying to play it safe.

Again. This was the case in NCAA 12 and madden 12, so what's changed since then? Has there been a lawsuit? I don't think there has, not about race at least.
