pretty cool idea if you ask me.. apparently the way most of the high performers win is to use the back button to retry recruiting and games until they get their desired result.

or just use the refresh button
If you guys want an awesome simulation site try whatifsports . com and check out the HD basketball. It is by far the best on the market.

whatif is a great site. but when you don't want to pay or register or give your email address or reserve a team months in advance, you gotta go with bethecoachbasketball.com. time wasting at it's purest.
of course, i'm biased coz i wrote the game. ;D

2009: 10-6 Second Round
2008: 8-6
Hopefully this isn't how the real Buzz Williams career goes, we need deeper runs. Although I think to tweak the game... you need to fix how the seedings are given. the year I was 11-4 I was #16 Nationally ranked... and was given a 10 seed...
There's A LOT to tweak.
1) The setting that recruiting at Marquette is on par with recruiting at Northwestern St.
2) The setting that allows you to have 7.00 rated WALK-ONs!
3) The setting that can allow UW-Milwaukee to reach the Finals and BEAT MU by 1 point!
4) The fact that you can refresh and get a loaded incoming class.
There's A LOT that needs to be fixed...

Yes, that banner sucks. I am trying to find it and kill it. >:(
Is anyone else having problems accessing the game? I get to the main page, but when I select a conference the page just reloads instead of letting me pick my players...
