NBA 2k20 Old Kentucky Home

[Goofybub23]

Starting a NBA 2k20 franchise with NCAA 2020 Rosters.

info
game: NBA 2k20
Roster: PacerNCAA20 college rosters
sliders/difficulty: All-star (+2 user 3pt) I can't shoot to save my life guys.
season length: 35 games 1 game playoff rounds
quarters: 5 minutes all Kentucky games played.

Background:
The 2021 season is a brand new world for college basketball. In the wake of worldwide pandemic most college basketball programs are temporarily suspending operations. The 36 teams that survived the pandemic well enough to compete for the 2021-2022 NCAA championship have formed a new league and intend to play a 35 game schedule and a 4 round tournament to determine a champion.

When asked about this new formation coach Calipari of the Wildcats said "It's good for our country to have sports again, I feel awful for all the schools that aren't able to bring their programs back this season but I think the schools that are on board are going to provide really competitive fun basketball. We are thrilled that the NCAA has granted waivers for every athlete to regain a year of eligibility."

The 36 teams are going to broken up into two 18 team conferences. Games are slated to be broadcast on TNT, ESPN, and CBS nationwide. The league is also slated to adopt NBA rules including the shot clock, and 3pt line, and 5 minute quarters.

The media is currently projecting the Villanova Wildcats to be the league champions and the Maryland Terrapins as the league's worst team. We will have continuing coverage across all platforms as the league ramps up for opening week at the end of October.

notes:
Not entirely sure how far this will go guys. Will definitely be playing out the whole first season and have a NCAA draft class loaded up. Not entirely sure how I'm going to deal with players leaving, might just have all players stay 4 years and after that "graduate them" problem with that is not sure how to keep enough players in the league. Gonna give draft picks out based on prior season performance so best team gets 1st pick and on down from there. tips, ideas, what you'd like to see all are welcome!

GO CATS!

Watching eagerly! Have thought about doing this before, didn't know enough about college hoops to try it though. Good luck!

Will be watching very closely this is an idea I also had but never implemented. It will be a lot of work but could be very worth it to someone whose a big fan of college hoops.

Id say you would just have players stay all four years on 4 year contracts. Once a player hits 4 years you get rid of him from the league.

You can use free agency to simulate recruiting. Add a bunch of created players to the free agency pool. Then put a bunch of 40 overalls in the draft class so that teams don’t keep/use them and in free agency teams can “recruit” the best players to join their team. To keep rosters full of a team had 3 players “graduate” they get to sign three recruits.

I would keep all contracts as minimums so that cap doesn’t become an issue. If you want to get really detailed put “player options” on contracts of really good players to simulate them leaving for the draft or just get rid of the top 5 freshman/sophomores every season

Thank you for following and those are great ideas! I've already added the draft class for this year so those guys are definitely coming in to the league but even if every team gets 2 guys from there a year guys will still be short I hadn't thought of adding CAP's to FA that is a great idea that will add some drama to the off season. Turned Salary CAP Off so won't have to worry about that. Excited to play out the season and then make decisions in the off-season about what works best.

First 5 played games and around the league report coming up.
