[Andy in Sactown]

Plan is to push it at midnight.

Edit: I show 3 players not ready. This is kind of a big deal, so checking back in tomorrow evening.

 

[dre1919]

C'mon people! Get your teams taken care of!

 

[dre1919]

Can we not upload pictures without having to link them from somewhere? WTH?

 

[ulukinatme]

Damn, I must have missed players leaving. I honestly don't know if I had any that were leaving or not. Can't tell with this roster off the top of my head. I got my recruiting done last night though.

 

[dre1919]

This offseason stuff seems to grind on...

 

[dre1919]

Hey Andy, are we moving this tonight? I messaged all the guys that haven't gone on the PS3 network. At some point, you snooze you lose ya know? What's Rattlesnakes doing? Is he still playing? He's been on "away" status for awhile now...

 

[IrishLion]

Yeah I'm anxious to see if I got my recruits lol.

Plus I'm heading to South Bend tomorrow, so I'd like to do my position changes before I leave. F*** USC.

 

[Andy in Sactown]

It's getting pushed tonight, ready or not. Here we come...

 

[Catholics_Rule]

When are we advancing?

 

[Andy in Sactown]

uhh.. after the colts game, lol..

 

[Andy in Sactown]

Advanced to Position Changes!

 

[ulukinatme]

Andy, I really thought I had a good chance to hold onto that Juco lol. I was hoping you weren't going to feed more than 2500 to pick him up. Clemson somehow stole a WR from me too at the last second. They were #3 on a kid's board, I was 1st and just ahead of Miami. I put 2500 on him and somehow Clemson leapfrogged me and Miami. Ugh!

 

[IrishLion]

I landed the perfect ATH to be a RB/FB tweener in the offense I'm trying to run, but I lost out on a gem punter to Bowling Green that I'm pretty pissed about haha. 85 kick power and I had a big lead for him, only to be undone by offseason recruiting.

Get those position changes in fellas!

I have a CB at 71 overall that I really want to move to WR. Great SPD, ACC, CTH, and RTE stats. But most importantly, his name is Mike Tyson. I would throw to him on every play based on simple principle, regardless of gameplan or situation.

However, I figured I'd leave him in the secondary so he can knock some fools out! Bu-dum-tiss.

Iron Mike, eh? My question is, after you change him to a wide-out, what will his awareness be? I'd be concerned he'd be looking for pigeons instead of the tracking the ball.

It would drop to a solid 48 haha, but sadly that's not too far off of the ~50's scores of my young WRs. I'm hurting for guys with good AWR and CTH ratings. Athleticism is fine, good speed and running ability amongst my receivers, but the actual act of catching and looking for the football concerns me with the RS FR and SOs that I'll be relying on after this season.

However, as much as I run the football, I left Tyson at CB and will rely on my top 3 WRs and my TE more than anything.

It's going to be hard to stick to the run as often with Gunner Kiel at the helm though!

Just realized you messaged me on PSN around this time. I had my recruiting points spent and ready that whole week lol. Don't confuse me with those slackers.

It's a good thing we wear helmets in this game, otherwise I would suggest protective ear wear for all my players

Haha...sorry! Apparently, spending the entire offseason points on the one guy I need works! Eat it FAU! Courtney Johnson is coming to UCF to make some big plays at QB!

Is this your Tim Tebow?* A guy that will move the UCF program ahead five years immediately?**

*Serious statement, it's awesome to land that one guy you need
**Subtle jab at Urban Meyer for wrecking Florida. I have more faith in coach Dre than Urban

 

[ulukinatme]

Glad you got your QB, Dre. I got mine as well, although he wasn't my first choice! I initially set my sights on a Juco for immediate playing time, but quickly found myself in a recruiting battle with Texas State of all teams. By the end of the season we were neck and neck. However, about mid season I just happened to Scout a 3 star QB that wasn't being recruited by anyone, and he ended up being a Gem. He was closer to 4-5 star, with no contact yet. He was also a better scrambling QB than my first guy, which I wanted, and he can give me 4 years which the other guy couldn't. I ended up losing the recruiting battle over the first choice and got the Gem instead.

 

[IrishLion]

Love those gems. I found a QB just like that, but he was listed as an athlete. Offered him around week 12 and got him signed with minimal points spent.

I was really excited because I had a 2-star gem committed as an ATH as well. 6-5 220 with 85 spd, 90 acc, 81 throw power and 72 throw accuracy. He committed early in the season, so I've been excited to use him as my read-option package guy... until I realized he was a JUCO. I'll use him as a safety instead for immediate help and redshirt the true freshman with similar rushing stats and better throw accuracy.

 

[ulukinatme]

Done with position changes. I really moved around a lot of guys in my secondary, and one guy from Safety to OLB to try and maximize the abilities of my players. Won't improve my personal play skill, but I typically don't user my secondary anyway, I tend to stick to DL.

 

[dre1919]

Thanks guys! Yeah, for some reason I don't see him being my Tim Tebow (doesn't seem as wholesome) so he's probably more like my Mike Vick. However, I do have a safety, no kidding, with the name DJ Killings. Reminded me of the actual dee jay for Sugar Ray, whose stage name is DJ Homicide. So now when he lowers the boom on someone I'll be like "OH! Drop the beat DJ Killings! Wooka-wooka-wooka!"

 

[ulukinatme]

Memphis doesn't have a lot of cool names, we do have an A.Cross though

 

[IrishLion]

Maybe we should start an IE PS3 Dynasty All-Name team.

 

[dre1919]

So where are we now in the offseason? And when do we advance next? We should just have cut players left, right?

 

[Andy in Sactown]

So where are we now in the offseason? And when do we advance next? We should just have cut players left, right?

I believe so. Been trying to give everyone time to get their moves done. I was eye-balling this evening for the next advance. It's been a few days for everyone to make their position changes.

 

[Steve]

The offseason is taking longer than the regular season.

That's good. I suggest we just go nightly from here on out till Week One of the new season and return to Wednesday and Sunday advances. What remains of the offseason tasks isn't real important and if you can't log in for a couple minutes and get it done then the CPU probably should do it for ya. Just sayin'.

I'm all for speeding up the off season since the remaining tasks will have less of an impact than the activities we've already done (Including position changes with completed activities there). I think we should give a heads up for next off season if we're going to move quickly, however. I think some people missed the transfers process and convincing players to return because we weren't expecting an early push. I may not have had any players to convince to stay, and I probably would have taken any transfers I could get, but I can't really say. I think for next off season we could push every night, or at least every other night if everyone knows the timeline ahead of time.
