The next minor change that would be quite helpful for me would be a:

Remove (or allow) Walkons from Overall and Averages.

Then let setting be the what determines if a Walkon gets to count in the places where you see team overall scores (for both you and your opponent) ... just like using player roles is now.  Just do not include Walkons for the displayed info ... if that is how you want to see it.

Agreed

Ya I'd also even rather allow teams to have over or under 12 players? For instance a team may be able to have 14 players but the extra 2 HAVE to be redshirted. Or even allow teams to go as low as 10? Walk ons in my opinion are a waste in this game, they just get cut next season and then replaced.

As of right now we can have as low as 11 players with the redshirt option, maybe even allow a team to have 11 players and don't give them the redshirt option then?

you kinda lost me there bagger.

first of all... why would you cut a kid you just redshirted?   my philosophy has always been to redshirt my BEST players when possible.   but certainly dont want to redshirt a kid who is a borderline role player and then cut him.  although,  on rare occassion, i will admit that i have cut a kid i redshirted.  it can happen, but shouldnt happen very often else you are making poor projections on player progress.

multiple redshirt and varying roster sizes sound good at first, but i would fear that the top teams would stockpile the best recruits and have 14 man rosters with 2 or 3 RSs.   ultimately not good for competitive balance.   and varying roster sizes would probably be a fairlycomplicated programming change...i think?

on your last comment,  i dont really get that.   you can choose to have 11 scholly players and one walk on.  do we really care whether the walkons are there or not?

i will agree that there are times when i wish i could cut several of my players midseason just because i am so pisted off and want to "send a message"

i do agree with hughes' original post though... that would be nice.
