I just got College Hoops this past weekend and have been playing it like nonstop - the thing is like cyber crack for a college hoops guy like myself. My question is should have have another go at the NCAA basketball thing? If so, what are some teams you would suggest I play with? I've been playing exclusively with the Badgers so far, and I don't think I want to do a dynasty with them because they are, to be truthful, horrible in the game. Penn State nearly has as high an OVR rating as a team.
So sans Badgers, what are some suggestions?

I think a West Virginia dynasty would be sweet.
GW sounds like an interesting team to follow. I would read either one, actually.

Gonzaga or Villanova. Why?
Well, you know of my obsession with Gonzaga....and it's be awesome to see you do a dynasty. Maybe put them in the Pac-10 to make it more entertaining.
Villanova has some great players who are all graduating. Can the program be kept at a high level?

Part of the reason why I stopped my last Gonzaga one was because their conference play would be way too easy. A Big East team might be interesting, too, with all the teams that are in it.

I think a West Virginia dynasty would be cool. Could the team survive losing all their seniors in the Big East? Would be fun to read about.

If you move Zaga to the Pac-10...Arizona gets great recruiting classes every year and you would be challenged every year. UCLA would also push you.

Notre Dame would be a good one, I think you could do better than what they've shown this year, but not too much better.

Notre Dame or West Virginia would be a good read and probably fun to play in a packed Big East. George Washington is my pick, for one reason... Pops!

Now that i think about it, you should try Notre Dame. They're not that good on the game, so you should bring them back to greatness (and losing to Michigan along the way)

Right now these are the teams I'm considering: - Gonzaga in the Pac-10 - It's an interesting idea, but who would I replace in the conference? Washington State? - West Virginia - The loaded Big East plus a playing style that I could totally dig. It'd also be a challenge with some of the big name guys graduating (Pittsnogle, Herbert, Gansey, etc.) - George Washington is interesting, especially Life After Pops, but I'm afraid of getting too good in a relatively small conference every year. Kansas has a lot of young talent, but I'm afraid that they'd be too easy since I tend to be a good recruiter, while I wouldn't be caught dead doing an Illannoy dynasty. I still need to get the chance to play with these teams before I find one I like, but right now I'm leaning towards WVU or the Zags.

I always replace Washington State. No big loss.
Also, there's a nice storyline for Gonzaga....can you overcome the loss of the great Adam Morrison and keep Gonzaga at the top of the Pac-10?

I've played a couple games with both WV and Gonzaga, and I noticed that College Hoops screwed up Gonzaga's unis...in the game they have red numbers instead of blue, which is weird, since they were blue last year. :-\
West Virginia, on the other hand, has 6 scholarships to fill after the first season...that should add up to some fun recruiting.

Gonzaga's a one-man team right now. Can you fix that
