Wooden not accepting coaches? Topic

Contemplating adding a team to just try and mirror my initial introduction to the game out of morbid curiosity to see if I feel its easier or harder to develop a team under the new system. But Wooden, which starts a new season Oct. 10, isn't accepting new coaches? Every other world has a button to where I can reserve a team except for Wooden...what's going on there?

This is Wooden:
Monday 8/22 12:00 AM Season starts
3:00 AM New coach signups start
Tuesday 8/23 4:00 PM New coach signups end

The next season hasn't begun yet.

Thank you for the non-answer.

I am well aware that Wooden's next season hasn't begun yet. In fact, I posted that Oct. 10 marks the start of a new season. The question that I asked regarded why there would be no button allowing me to reserve a team in that world. For instance...

Crum...next signups. Nov. 14...there's a button allowing me to reserve a team.
Iba...next signups, Nov. 8...there's a button allowing me to reserve a team.
Knight...signups started today..there's a button that allows me to choose a team (but I don't play 2x worlds, so not joining there)
Smith...next signups, Nov. 2...there's a button allowing me to reserve a team.
Allen..next signups Oct. 27...there's a button allowing me to reserve a team.
Phalan...next signups Oct. 22...there's a button allowing me to reserve a team.
Tarkanian..next signups Oct. 15...there's a button allowing me to reserve a team.
BUT...
Wooden...next signups Oct. 10...No button, only the message "This World is Not Accepting New Coaches"

Ergo my question...what's going on there?

The world was in the job period and therefore only accepting applications.

So this was the 'previously coached in this world job period' :

Application Period: 10/3 3:00 AM to 10/5 11:59 PM
The job period for this season is over.

And this is when the 'accept new coaches period' starts:

Mon, Oct. 10, 3:00 AM ET

So you can apply then (on the 10th).

Had you applied from the 3rd to the 5th, you would have been able to recruit in the 2nd recruiting period of the just finished season.. If you apply on the 10th, you will be starting on the 1st recruiting period of the new season, and the SIM will have finished out the previous season.
