" the whole concept that I shouldn't expect to replace an EE player with a player of similar quality is something I don't feel makes sense "

Thank you for your honesty. I wonder, is such a replacement guaranteed in HD Classic?

pretty sure I never used the word guarantee, but thanks for being the predictable worthless POS we've all come to expect.

Are Ward and Spud the same person?

I didn't say you did use the word "guarantee," did I? I used it. You used the word "expect."
How come you are turning so bitter and angry on your way out the door? Your level of vitriol and bitterness is duly noted.

"Handed to coaches"? Please don't fill up dac's leaving post with denigrating top coaches.

For those who don't know, and I'm guessing some of you don't, this is the coach that made the spreadsheet on what is high high vs low high and maintained it for years. this is the coach that actively talked to and helped people in his conference. This is a great coach leaving. This coach has done more for the game than any of you ever will.

We've had differences in MI in Rupp dac, but you know I respect you as a coach and have in several worlds. I'll be leaving too once credits are done, but you're a good dude and a great coach.

I understand that you're just to give the guy his props but to make it out like the low-high/high-high thing was anything more than just a simple little chart is kind of ridiculous, don't you think? I mean, give him credit for his run with Michigan State or something like that, not the potential thing. It was helpful, sure, but it certainly wasn't a "Stop the presses" moment in HD history.

No, it's not a stop the presses thing ... but how many times even today do posts get made about what is high high vs low high? Nobody else actually sat down and did it, that's the point.

Of course he's a hugely successful coach, I've competed against him at MSU and also in Heartland before. But there's lots of good coaches, there are less that also try to give something back to the community, which I think he did in multiple ways. That's the only point.

Not at all.
Ward doesn't seem that bright. When he says stupid things I don't think he always means it or knows what he's saying.

Spud is fairly intelligent and chooses to be a horses *** because he enjoys it.

That was my opinion too, but the direction of what they're getting at often seems similar and of course the user name.

I don't know if this is meant to be sarcastic or not, but I also never once used/made/whatever a spreadsheet for HD stuff. The eyeball test was/is more than adequate for me I guess. That or a good old pen and piece of paper to scribble a few notes.

This.

I'm still not convinced that Spud is not an alt ID of Seble's designed for misdirection or if not him, another developer on staff trying to help him out by running "interference" with his out of left field posts.

I know what you were getting at and as I said, the potential chart is still a very helpful and quick reference but I just found it a little odd that out of all the things you could have chosen as an example, that the potential thing was the one you picked. No worries, it's all good.

I always had plenty of pen and paper available during recruiting under the old system. Even in the new one I wrote down how many scholarships I was scouting for and what positions I'd need to fill.

sarcastic and at the same time true. I heard of guys who somehow exported all the recruits into spreadsheets, that sort of stuff. others who made charts to figure out different HD formulas - good for them i guess, this was just never a math problem to me, despite the fact it's actually all one big math problem since its a computer game.

Add me to the list of someone who didn't use spreadsheets or formulas. Eyeball test and the human brain works just fine.

i was, too. guyo, what you don't know is, that example actually proves what a piece of **** dac actually is -- i hate that guy! he does writing/editing, but that high/high spread sheet he just straight lifted off a post i made on the forums and didn't even give credit! bastard. that is just the tip of the iceberg in a long career of deception and thievery, which i will outline below...

no, i kid. dac is an awesome guy, just in general. i wasn't part of it but his MUSDUC (might have the spelling wrong) was very well received and he had a bunch of conference-boosting activities he ran over the years. he brought a lot of spirit to this game and has been a valuable member of the community, for sure. i have had a blast coaching MSU with him and he wanted to leave before last season - like, really, really badly. it basically causes him physical pain to have to look at the team at this point, but he doesn't want me to have to finish our tenure alone (i wanted to finish our 10yr run which ends after this season) - so he is sticking around with me to the end. that's just the kind of guy he is.
