Getting real names through random names

[ugagsu]

What's up everyone? I searched to make sure this isn't already covered and I don't think it is. I know with the legal issues they have to use random generated names (we know we can create rosters and recruiting classes with real names) . I was just wondering if , through the random generated names, an occasional real name might slip in. I mean, take for instance Jacob Eason of UGA. Jacob is a very common first name and Eason is a fairly common last name. Of all 2000+ players, what are the chances the name Jacob Eason actually showed up.? I think it's possible, unless the game knew he was in 9th or 10th grade when this game came out

It is possible, Tennessee's WR Josh Smith would be common too. Hell, when I was playing NCAA 12 I had a dynasty with TN and the auto generated name for my QB was Tyler Gray (Tyler Bray was their real one)
As long as the player isn't on the team he is on in real life, it would be fine. Jacob Eason on Western Michigan is ok. Jacob Eason on Georgia isn't. It's worth nothing they lost the suit because the players were modeled after the real life players, too. A 5'9 WR named Jacob Eason is by no means modeled after the real Eason.

I found one but he was in high school at the time this game was released and if you have him in your recruiting class you will get the "item with the same key" error. Air Force has a Nick Fitzgerald. There was a QB by the same name in the 2014 class. He is now at Mississippi State. He is from Richmond Hill, about a couple hours north of Jacksonville FL

Two players having the same name won’t give you that error. Their name is not their ID.

Oh ok. Wonder what causes the error?

Must create a duplicate ID number somehow but why would it do it?

I ran 2013 season again and got to 2014 signing day file and got the error again. I would really really appreciate some help. Thanks
