Spud--your loyalty to Seble is commendable, but he is gone. Sort of like being loyal to Jimmy Carter. Beside the point. Seble made a host of changes to fit how HE, PERSONNALLY felt would fit the way HE, PERSONNALLY wanted to play. Basically a one-man show. Problem is, he was only a modestly successful coach who wanted to "fix" things so that guys like him could win sometimes. So you have anomalies like a C+ D3 sim beating out an A D1 human-coached team for a 5-star recruit. Or that if you take over a team from a human coach, you somehow don't get your attention points, according to one person that did just that. Lots of landmines, intentionally or unintentionally put in place.
Now if you want to be a part of the solution rather than just being part of the problem, you will admit that recruiting has become a random walk; game play has been too much affected by Seble's crusade to level the playing field; and who knows what is up with many sims seemingly changing their offenses and defenses every season? We need to document the problems so that when the staff gets itself together, they can be addressed.
BTW, being snarky to me is ineffective. Been chewed out in my working life by more than one two-star general. Snarky posts may give you a measure of self-gratification, but they contribute nothing to the forum.
