Following up on our earlier discussion, let's start up our 2* prestige league. The rules? Only that you pick a team having 2* prestige and try to build it into a contender.
Teams available for this league...
Teams:
Marshall – Zell
Central Michigan – Leroy
Temple – Kush
Colorado State – firesloth
Western Michigan – willhouse
Rice – Bill Bonney / Wi11Nick
According to the Commish, Leroy:
So we are all in the MAC.The Lambert division: Temple, Rice, Colorado St.
The Schembechler division: CMU, WMU, MarshallI gave the MAC champion an automatic bid to a BCS game because we are that damn good.
Hey, if you need me to be commish, I'll do it for 10 bucks a month.....ok fine, I'll do it for free. Geez....
Temple please. Thank you!
After looking at some of the teams, I think we should exclude:
Hawaii
Baylor
UCLA
N. Illinois
Ole Miss
Southern Miss
Fresno State
All those teams are stacked powerhouses waiting for a human to come in and kick ass with them. Any objections to leaving them to the CPU?

I 2nd the motion to prohibit those teams.
Once we get a head count, I'll set up divisions and the league and the sliders and the what nots.

Not really, but I'd like to understand the justification. Is it based on their preseason ranking? Would it be better to exclude teams with overall ratings >80 instead?
thats basically what I did....they are all overall 84+
We can do either/or.....Setting up the outta conference games with humans seems like the easiest. But it would make it harder to go up the rankings. If we scramble everything around, we can at least set it up to face some harder teams in the hopes of getting BCS standings in the top 25. I personally would vote for the latter...move our teams into two conference then add in two or three "tough" teams to each schedule. Teams like WVU, VT, TCU, Georgia, ect...
I vote for two 2-division conference. Conference championship in each conference, and the two winners play in a bowl game.
Move Marshall to the MWC...I like playing against the Buffs and Rams...
A note on good 2-star teams. Frequently they have mostly senior talent and recruiting is so brutal that they'll come to earth quickly. In the 2* league for NCAA 11 I chose Nevada. I hoped the fact that they were one of those better teams would lead recruits to Reno. Instead I had a great 1st season and then couldn't convince recruits to come to Reno.

Very true. I remember going 9-3, winning the MAC, and Coach of the Year and getting 0 interest from any 3* talent. It was sad.

that was my problem with the other NCAA league. I went 11-3 with Marshall and got them ranked and everything...still only had two 3* recruits....was really sad.
what is accrete?
or "get"
I know that word. :p

I like big words. I support that Firesloth. I'll try and nab a copy this week sometime so I can try it out with the current sliders.
I'll get this league up and running this weekend if I don't get to it tomorrow night. Supposed to be going out the next few nights.

It's called Google, ya lazy f***
(Said completely in jest, for optimal humor value)
Optimal: adj, most desirable or satisfactory
(I got your back Leroy)
Im in for a 2 star league. I will take Western Michigan I think they are a 1 or 2 star
I have family that goes to Western and my friend went to Grand Valley where he said he got spoiled on all the micro brewery beer there.
I may join tonight, let me look over the teams when i get home.
Also doing my recruiting right now.
