These rules confused me slightly so every single one of my players are from Kansas. This is cool yes?

I just found this theme league. I'm not exactly new blood as I have four seasons but I haven't played in over two years. Plus, I just graduated from UNLV so if someone drops out I'd like to jump in

Kansas is one of the 8 teams that is not allowed to add the under $6 million player. They can however add one under $600,000 player.

OK, here's what I've come-up with for Divisions. Please look-over and feel free to comment. Remember, if you think a team should be moved (based on geography, not perceived strength), it needs replaced, so please include the entire exchange. Also please remember that 6 owners have 2 teams and 4 teams are used twice, and they need in different Conferences.

1) Duke - masterdebate
Wake Forest - foghat
UNC - Poddy
Notre Dame - all3(1)
Foreign(1) - bfh(1)
High School(1) - iwfkk(1)

2) Arkansas - jpeterso(2)
Houston - superrobb
LSU - klinke
Kansas - samuely
Kentucky(1) - cmc(1)
Mich St(1) - robusk(1)

3) Minnesota - robusk(2)
Ohio St - krishnaman
Mich St(2) - all3(2)
Kentucky(2) - cmc(2)
DePaul - alogman
St. Johns - ccsweet

4) UCLA - poppap
Ariz St - rubnsly
Calif - shine
New Mex - jpeterso(1)
Foreign(2) - iwfkk(2)
High School(2) - bfh(2)

divisions look great. hey, next iteration of this, would you consider allowing an NAIA allstar team? if not, i'd probably take Indiana and maybe Utah too.

Would you allow iowa and iowa state to be one school? They'd still suck and the fans would murder each other....

An NAIA (or something similar) team might be a great idea. Over the years, we have done versions where combining schools within the same State, or even same Conference was allowed, but it might be time to revisit. Thanks for the input. I'll make sure to check-back here when deciding next season's theme, so keep posting thoughts.

all3 I think this theme and cap is great, my only tweak would be to treat the int'l and high school teams like the "large" school teams in terms of additional players.

Suggestion made by others as well, and it may come to that moving forward. Since this was the first, or at least the first in a long time, that they were allowed, I wanted to see how they faired before treating them as "elite".

hey what's the hold up everyone? We've got the 24 teams committed and even a wait list right? Let's get this thing going already.
