Yes, this is a MEAC sales pitch...bare with me heh. I just left the country life of Hampton, VA for the "bright lights" of Fayetteville, Arkansas which leaves my B prestige Hampton team open. Hard to sell a MEAC team, but this is a damn good MEAC team. Had a nice sweet 16 run this year and it's set up for a nice run again next year (roster:
www.whatifsports.com/hd/TeamProfile/Ratings.aspx).
Only 4 scholarships open, and C Kenneth Boysen should get drafted high (national first team all american), so there's a prestige bump possibility. Carey/Abdelhamid/Bernard is a nice trio to run with next year, along with returning national DPOY Otis Brown. A couple more pieces with this recruiting season and you should be good to go for another NT run. Carey and Bernard should have great shots at being drafted next year as well.
Recruiting can be tricky (of my 12 guys, I only had 2 from Virginia) but it's not as bad as you'd think. There's also 5 other coaches currently in the MEAC, so it's not a total SIM wasteland like the MEAC normally is. I'll offer any sitemail suggestions needed to anyone who takes it over, would love to see it keep going and not fall back into the abyss. Give it a shot!
