Ok, how I decided on my team. I'm a geek and I started out with a spreadsheet of about 20 teams and I rated them all for various attributes, then gave each attribute a multiplier and then started trying out teams. When the draft order first came out I thought I was going to Oregon, but after my number crunching, they were in the top 5, but weren't number 1. So I looked deeper and played with every team in my top 5+ to see how they played. I liked Oregon as they have amazing DB's and have a great TE, stud QB, impact rb, high rated fb and decent WR's. So I narrowed down my list to two and choose from there and moved into Eugene ready to stay awhile.

BTW Corey, Wisconsin is a great spot to land a high draft pick next season, you picked well, even tough you are an ass!
yeah soprano you TOUGH ass! 8-)

well I guess with the 75th pick in the draft there is not much to really contemplate. I had three teams on my list, the 2 back ups went before me..

I got really nervous when SJSU which was my second pick was picked.. But in the end the team I wanted from the beginning FAU was there at 75.. Not a big surprise but I was happy I got them.

THere are some familar faces in the conference or names.. Not sure how long I ll be at FAU we shall see.

But I never been at a school longer then an year except at CAL, and I dont expect to get them on this version :cry:

Overall I m happy with my team for the pick I had, and hope I can pull out a couple of wins.

I'm wishing I went to the Big XII now. The ACC looks tough. I crunched some numbers and it wasnt pretty. The guys on my schedule right now hold a 694-456 record overall in the NDL, thats a .603 winning percentage. I'm glad Boston College has a 0 win goal, I do plan on pulling off at least one shocker. I played Holmey yesterday and the game was one of the funnest I have played in a long time, still lost but ooh well. That game pretty much locked me into Boston College so if I upset anyone in the ACC you guys can thank Holmey for it.

Good luck figuring out your way around town.

Maryland was #4 on my list (behind Miami, Tennessee, Georgia) I enjoyed playing with them but really didn't think that they would be there when I picked #17...was expecting to get Arizona St/Arizona....but when they were there at the 17th pick I didn't want to pass them up...should be fun playing in the ACC, definitely expect some tough games, hopefully I'll be able to win a couple of them!

Good stuff fellas.

Always cool to see what everyone is thinking after the fact because during the draft we get a lot of WTF?!??!? moments. :lol:

This was blaring on the PA system when Coach Nasty made his first entrance into Camp Randall:

:lol:

Thanks to Peay, this will be rolling out at the start of the 4th quarter.

Going to be a fun year in the Big 10 with some awesome coaches and rivals. Hey, I may have just found a home in Cheeseland. :D

I was flirting with going back to BG for a while, but the fact that MSU will have a win goal of 1 or two for the next 3 seasons sealed it considering I probably wont be playing much this yr :(

Damn Michigan and there inflated ratings every year, lol.

Looking at my schedule, I don't see pulling out 10 wins. Day 2 of season 17 draft here I come. :lol:
I have a feeling this is my last stint with ND. I have a 5 win goal and thats without scheduling my 6 OOC games. I know 2 rivals that I have scheduled for at least 6 seasons that are lower than B+ so thats pushes me to 7 wins. All this to say ill prolly pick one spot after shell next draft. LOL

Wanted anyone except Vandy and a stint in the SEC. My goal is to pick last in the next draft and hope there is a mid-major on the board when I pick.

Losing Seasons: 2, 3, 4, 8, 9 (0-12 with Syracuse)

I didn't intend at all on picking Central Michigan. Like the team, but the win goal will be impossible for me. Contemplated picking a D team or something to attempt to get a better pick next year, but don't really wanna lose 8-9 games just to get a top pick. That attitude might put me in the same position of the draft next year though.

So big that UGA wasn't even on my list, and from the looks of things UGA wasn't on yours either. I love when you don't step up, you still say things about me. :lol:

With the 53rd pick I was really looking for a home, maybe a team with favorable upside even for next year. I thought I found that home until Pengy broke my heart 5 picks prior to mine taking Arkansas.

So, Eastern Michigan it is. Maybe I can find my home in season 17. :cry:

I am really looking forward to playing in the WAC this year.

Hoosy thought he was smart taking Boise state. I bet he thinks he can slip into the BCS.

He has no idea :lol:
