College Hoops Sim League Thread

I'll do an exhibition.

I've also got my two main targets set...fingers crossed they start this cycle as "undecided" so I can actually sway them both over.
 
Both... Major battles for major players. Hope that I land the prize recruit I'm spending all my loot on.

Yeah, I've got two guys basically locked up but arguably my #1 target lists me...and three other schools. I've never been in that much of a dogfight for a prospect before.
 
Ahh man, been swamped at work. Should be able to do a lil recruiting today. I have 2 spots open, but will be happy just locking down one clutch player. My roster is pretty weak

Correct on Avina/Linton. Rule of thumb for me... C should be your highest ATH/REB/BLK/LP guy. PF should be similar, but you want to have more speed. Centers don't really need speed at all.

On PG/SG, Typically, your highest PE guy should be your SG, but you want your best BH/Pass guy to play PG everyday and for your PG to have 135+ ATH/SPD total.

So how much stock do you put in for D? If I have a guy that is high in ATH, REB, BLK, and LP, but has shitty D, would he be a decent center?
 
I'm stoked about one of my recruits after just doing the future stars service on him...he's a JUCO with three years left who I'm guessing will wind up being a stud.

Of course the guy I've spent the most on still has three other suitors. I've got a backup plan for him pretty much locked up though, and if I offer him hewill be mine. Also got a bit of a project SF (well solid rating but not great, but he's got potential in several areas according to FSS) who is pretty well locked up.
 
has anybody FSS Tennessee? I dont want to drop the money, if there is nothing good there anyway lol
 
I've done Alabama, North Carolina, Georgia, and North Dakota.

Yes, three of those were after I already started recruiting kids so I could see if they had enough potential to make them worth chasing.

My prize transfer is from ND so you jerks stay away from him.

anything promising in NC?
 
I'd take a PG with 3 or 4 years.
If I can find one, and get him fairly cheep, I can go after someone with 1 or 2 years. I've been recruiting guys that I thought had good potential, but they fizz out before their junior year, so my roster is pretty pathetic.

I should prolly be looking for a SF with 3 or 4 years as well...

I think I plan on staying in DII for a while, So I should prolly just start rebuilding, getting some good folk in there.

Long story short, if you see a solid PG, or SF, let a brotha know lol

As far as SF from NC, Branden Smith, a 6-7 HS prospect doesn't look bad:

Athleticism 42 Average
Speed 46 Average
Rebounding 41 High
Defense 24 High
Shot Blocking 23 High
Low-post 25 High
Perimeter 49 Low
Ball Handling 18 Average
Passing 18 Average
Stamina 78 Average
Durability 57 Average
FT Shooting Low

Lots of room for improvement, anyway. Only two "low" areas is always a good sign for a guy with a 477 rating.

Not a ton of talent in the states I scouted this year. Definitely not at the PG spot.

EDIT: Maybe take a flier in a SG named Steven Freeman from NC...JUCO kid with 3 years left, 507 rating but BH is 53, passing is 47, athleticism is 48, speed is 67, and his work ethic is 67 so he could possibly convert into a point guard down the road.

I usually try to find a guy that will be at least a 40 def... that said, that guy could be a monster sub.
 
Looks like I may miss out on my top guy. Was in a heavy battle with one of the top teams here for him. We're still neck and neck, but I'm not feeling overly confident.

what do you look for in a SF?
Expand...

Just someone who I can see myself cuddled up on the couch with, watching a sitcom, and when I ask for a beer they get up and.. wait, what?

Oh, SF. got ya.

Good D, Rebounding, LP, ath?

But it never seems to work out that way lol
 
Ok guys, can't post pictures of these because I'm computer dumb and working on double screens, but that said.. If anyone is looking for a:

PG, this guy will be a stud - http://www.whatifsports.com/hd/RecruitProfile/Recruit.aspx?rid=3033296
SG/SF, this guy will fill a need - http://www.whatifsports.com/hd/RecruitProfile/Recruit.aspx?rid=3030698
PF/C, this guy may dropdown with some effort - http://www.whatifsports.com/hd/RecruitProfile/Recruit.aspx?rid=3031335
C, if you have money to battle a little, this guy has 2 SIMs on him, but is the best Center in my scouting regions - http://www.whatifsports.com/hd/RecruitProfile/Recruit.aspx?rid=3001629
 
looks like i'll get the 2 guys i need. now time to go after a guy that will put me over the top this year (i hope)
