We have the exact same thing going in another league where we can scout players from High School all the way to College. It's been working great over the past 3-4 seasons but i personally prefer real players but that's just me. What league?

DBSL not sure if you ever heard of it but we have a lot of interesting things in the league including a Developmental league.

Sounds like an interesting idea. This would be the second stage of a multi league forum.

Yeah, I'm also a big fan of drafting fictional players, makes things a lot more intruiging.

I like the idea but is there anyway we can edit the players existing the rosters and make them real names?...I know theres tons of teams and itd be alot of work but maybe we can do it for some of the major conferences? or the notable players? like some from marquette but most products would come from the big conferences..For example, Darren Collison put on UCLA or Greg Paulus on Duke.

Well the thing is we will run as is for the next 4-6 years with real players. After that I want to use the college game. So name editing wouldnt really make much sense, since the whole reason were going to the college scenario is that we would have run out of real prospects.

I like the college game because I really dont like fake players, but if their is a backstory, it makes it more interesting. As a GM you can either really pay attention to the college league, or just look at it during draft time. Either way its that little extra backstory for all the draft eligibles which IMO is slightly better then just a list of fake players.

Id like to have BBS with the college, and a retro league eventually. Something starting in the late 70s. Id really like to have Bird, Magic, and then MJ Barkley etc.

this sounds really interesting spencer. I love this idea and how we will use these college players in the drafts. Sounds like it will make this league that much better and really fun.
I would put my name in the hat to be considered for this job, but after summer, Im starting college and I do not know how much time I would have. I hope we find someone.

I think that some combination of people could do this, it just seems that if everyone wants it, itll work out. Now, its probably best to figure out when we should start with the college.
Exactly what year?
And, if the new FBB comes out before then, do we switch over?

Im thinking 2013 perhaps.

I say we switch to the new FBB. I think the new fbb would allow you to take the season you are out with the old fbb and transfer it to the newer one. I hope you could do something like that.
