I need to get it advanced as I try to have it advanced Wednesday and Sunday nights late. It's Thursday night and there are a few folks without their games played yet...

Kansas
LSU
Tulsa

If you guys can get your games played (excluding you, Alamo) I can move it. In other amusing news, I moved from Miami to East Carolina. I had to get get away from Miami...they are just flat horrible. At least with ECU, they have a cool new helmet logo, field logo, and there's a real good reason they're crappy. LOL But, I will say, I forgot I moved them into the sinking ship that is the Big East to help give it some teams (as well as a few other non-critical teams). I was looking forward to some nasty C-USA action against the Alamo! But, maybe in a bowl. :) I started off right...kicking higher ranked Louisville right in the Mark May. :)

Cool...well I should be home tomorrow night if you want to just wait til Saturday morning or something.

I'm so bored in my hometown with none of my stuff to use. All my games, books, guitars, musician friends, drinking buddies, etc. are an hour away!

It's all good Alamo, you won.

Jayhawk41 (Kansas) and theIrishLion10 (Wisconsin) still need to play their respective games. C'mon guys it's tuesday night! We are almost behind an entire advancement cycle.

Speaking of Jayhawk.. when do you want to play next week? You might not think your 4-2 Kansas squad is all that, but my 7-0 Longhorns are NOT a championship team. Defense? Sure. Offense? Struggled mightily with losing my Sophomore Quarterback David Ash to a 9-week Pectoral Injury (13-10 victory against Oklahoma and 10-3 versus Baylor last two contests). Mini-McCoy is a pocket passer and I like to run spread-option. Been killing the clock behind the OD's #1 Defense. Should be a good game.

Cheers All!
Andy

My apologies on not playing my game on time, I was in Chicago and had to write a couple stories for the school paper and write a research paper as soon as I got back. But now I'm back in front of the PS3, gotta blow somebody out after the iffy computer victory against Purdue!

That seems to be the case...people get busy though...it is advance night though.

We're tardy for the Sunday advance. Thus my statement about us being back a "week" cycle. Maybe being a Jayhawk fan was too much to bear...

Sorry gentlemen. Actually, Jayhawk is pulling a Charlie Weis as he is a good friend of mine. He told me the other day that some of his games he'd be playing and some he would just have the CPU play as he just started a new job. He's working night shifts now, so his schedule is all wonky. Anyway, I'll go ahead and advance it today. Sorry for the delay! My October schedule has been crazy as hell so I've been off as well. I thought we were behind by an advance day...

Alamo, if you want a new job and have your mind on a specific one, I can get you there (I just have to have you retire and re-invite you). Otherwise, you'll be at the mercy of whatever jobs come up. Since it's year one, it's not a real big deal...just let me know what you want to do.

EDIT: DYNASTY ADVANCED!

I'm taking my chances with the job openings in the post season!

Hey Andrew, I have a player versus player game with Jayhawk this week. If you can get word to him, I'm a student and can try to accommodate his schedule.

Crushed Michigan State...........

and then the game froze up on me when it prompted me asking if I wanted to upload highlights. Just checked the dynasty website, and it didn't record my result. What's our schedule for advancing now? Are we playing catch-up, or are we advancing on Sunday night like normal? I can replay my game tonight after midnight, or tomorrow morning ASAP if we are trying to catch up to where we should be

Probably best to advance Sunday nightish, since it took so long for us all to get the past week advanced.
I'm game for whatever though boys.

Well roll with the next advance being Sunday night. That way, hopefully Jayhawk will have time to play Andy. I let him know y'all's game was this week, so I'll see what I can do about getting the two of you in conversation about playing it.

Roster management is highly variable to your playstyle. I personally like to run spread option, so on offense especially it's all about speed, speed, speed. Again, build for the way you play, but here's a rough idea of how I like to see a roster breakdown once you've managed the program for a full 5 year roster rotation:

<iframe width='300' height='460' frameborder='0' src='https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0Ajq4My_DmWeidFl5ek5raXF3TzFyVGhxVnhHVjNYZFE&output=html&widget=true'></iframe>
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0Ajq4My_DmWeidFl5ek5raXF3TzFyVGhxVnhHVjNYZFE&output=html

Now of course this is a guideline. Hot recruits change the ebb and flow of your roster and you have to make adjustments, but this is very balanced. Notice the template for your incoming class is the same as your outgoing 5th years.

QB and RB are kept at 4 per position, with the year without one skill alternating with each other. Recruit 1 TE a year, but keep your TE stable at 4. I like to recruit receiving TE's for the position and one monster blocking TE to be position changed to FB, since all the FB's really suck (4TE, 1 FB over 5 year cycle). Redshirt every freshman. Be aggressive in recruiting and get promises, topic discovery and early visits set. You're only going for a class of 14, so pick carefully and go for them balls to the wall. Early hard commitments will come in the first few weeks. Replace a position player with the next feasible of the same position and continue to press along. Athletes are risky early on, but once you have spare time, grab up everyone you scout to be competitive.

Of course all stats are important for their respective positions, but I recruit especially for speed. Being a spread option type I like to recruit:

Speed 86+ Acceleration 85+ Quarterbacks.
Speed 90+ Acceleration 88+ Halfbacks
And most importantly:
Speed 93+ Acceleration 90+ Wide Receivers and ALL DEFENSIVE BACK POSITIONS.

All of this is of course an ideal.

I hope this helped you get an idea of how to manage a 70 man NCAA 13 roster to get the most out of your dynasty play. If you have any other questions feel free to post or PM me.

Cheers!
Andy

Apparently if you have to play my formidable ECU Pirates, pray for rain! I had no less than 8 dropped passes! It was crazy, my QB started out 1 for 13 because EVERY pass was getting dropped. I still rushed for 200 yards so UMass can suck it!

BTW, just for amusement sake, I thought I would say I absolutely HATE my QB's in my other dynasty with friends (where I am Notre Dame). Hendrix is inconsistent (but the most consistent of all of them). Golson gets hurt every season (last year, broken hand out for nine weeks, this year broken ribs out for eleven weeks). Kiel isn't ready to play (year three!) because for some reason (on these same settings he still throws too wild) and my freshman recruited QB's aren't ready either! Yay me!
