Mike : What about new D1 coaches? They have to do it in the second session.
Hell, you know what thread. This was my response to you:
I'm not disagreeing with that but, in a way, I understand why it is the way it is.
A) Realism in job changes. As I just posted, Dean Smith and Coach K were not Smith and K in their early days at their iconic schools. One could say they were lucky to get 4-6 years to get rolling.
B) More realism when starting a new job. Frank Martin was pretty successful at KSU. Took SC job and had run off the previous coaches' recruits or play thru them(SIMAI guys). Seems to have righted the ship.
C) Prevent dumbass moves one would have to live with. New user takes a team and recruits 5 players without a clue. That's 5 guys he has for the next 4 seasons before he learns one thing. Easier to drop that team and take another. Happens in HBD all the time.
