motherfucker, i'm gonna lose the QB i'm targeting to Minnesota who pulled ahead by 540 this week ,and I can't pry that WR away from Cletus. Already lost the other QB I was after to Oregon.

UCLA offense gonna be putrid next season.

looks like Cletus did and I read it wrong. MSU is all up in his business.

as long as my redshirted QB doesn't bail for playing time I should be fine QB wise. I just really want the ATH I'm after because 88 SPD and 89 THP as a freshman, with 84 accuracy, is insane.

Dude has QBs with 98THP and are faster than my WRs.

i always usually play poo poo schools (minnesota) in this game and that kind of a QB is a goddamn gem for me, i've never been able to pull in a stud like that (98thp, 90+speed)

Looks like BenedictWong moved in on that WR.

I didn't add points to him. I think I completely removed him. I'll check

Anyone that recruits straight up QBs in this game is a fuckin fool. ATH is the only answer for your QB needs. My Vols starter was a JUCO dude. Always mine the boards late in the season for 2/3* JUCO players that have been ignored but will scout out 78-81 OVR and give you a couple year stop gap.

Even my stubbornness could not oppose this truth. Still, the guys I land have come nowhere near the quality of QBs you have with VT. I really don't understand it.

I got lucky and he's stuck around for 4 years. I had an even better dude lined up behind him, but he transferred to WVU. So i've pushed his poo poo in for 3 years now too. I'm not really sure what QB will look like on my VT squad next season.

I could maybe play Thursday late like 11pm eastern timeframe. I'll let you know better when I get back to work Thursday.

TBH today could be tough as have a dinner tonight for a departing coworker and Italian dinners go crazy late. Keep an eye out on case something opens but Friday or Saturday is looking more likely.

I was originally going to say that I didn't expect to win that despite the close score, but now I can't believe I lost that. (throwing deep was dumb even if it connected as you had tons of time to march down again and tie/score).

I'm very annoyed that my guy dropped that easy pick and Pollard overthrew the sure TD but I have a feeling you still were coming away with the victory in that one. I have no idea how you closed on your INT, I knew you knew you blew the coverage on that play before and I knew you thought I was going to the same guy so I figured he was off limits but he looked soo open...you closed that gap frighteningly fast.

good game

John Brown

It helps when your safety is 97 SPD and allows you to recover. Also I've practiced quite a bit with stopping and turning in coverage.

Your blitzes were annoying as gently caress. I should've called more WR screens but it was just comical at one point.

GG as always.

I'm losing a bunch of of O-line next year and ZSB is going to steal all of them in recruiting :smith:

I'm only winning on some 64 ovr scrublord.

I got that wideout though, which solves a big graduating senior.

yea, looking at USC, do me a solid and drop on Jack Moss and Donald Alston, maybe Donald Jefferson.

You dont need 3rd string line men while i start cpu recruited shitheads next year, your o-line is stacked for 3 years at least.

i'm only close on jack moss it seems, Z pulled far away on the other guys.

If I can't nail him, I will need stat boosts on my o-line next year. I'm losing both tackles and a guard.
