mkpeak Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 My star player just declared for the draft after his true Freshman season. Unless I'm mistaken a player must be a minimum of 2 years removed from high school before he can be draft eligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkpeak Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 Question Will this patch fix the issue for existing careers/saved game or only for new careers/games? Thanks, -Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arlie Rahn Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 You need to load a game from prior to advancing the offseason in order to get the fix. The process of advancing is what adds the players to the potential list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorJ Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Actually the NCAA rule is they cannot declare until 3 years after graduating HS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munster Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 This is true...so even after the fix, why are sophomores still declaring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munster Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 And freshman (after their freshman season), for that matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyDog Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I haven't seen anyone younger than a Junior declare since the patch. Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Munster Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 How, Tim? What I've got right now is my "Potential Declaring Underclassmen" e-mail, which shows a whole bunch of rising sophomores threatening to declare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emiliano Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Munster is right, sophomores are declaring. The problem is they are listed as juniors because the game advances in the off-season; but they've played only 2 seasons of college ball. [QUOTE]From: League office Subject: Underclassmen declaring for the draft Here is the final list of players declaring early for the 2008 pro draft.

Huckleberry Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Good catch. The draft or not decision is made after the players' year classification is progressed. The engine needs to allow only redshirt juniors and all seniors to declare. I'm going to assume that these guys didn't all go to prep school for a year. ;) Even then, that is a [i]lot[/i] of players declaring after their redshirt sophomore season. Very few players declare after only two seasons of playing time. And the OG and DT declaring after two seasons of playing time is almost unheard of, especially the OG. Guards rarely declare early at all as they aren't drafted very high. Tackles are a different story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emiliano Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Bump I'm not sure Arlie noticed this... Also, I think this could be moved to the tech support area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munster Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 So...Tim...was this addressed in the 1.02 patch, or is there a "fix" thread where you would like me to post this issue for 1.03? (I know I've got guys declaring illegally early in 1.02, but I don't know whether or not that was locked in prior to the patch install and won't happen again.)

Tim Plum Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Arlie addressed early the declare early issue in 1.02. unfortunately it looks as though it didn't catch all the possibilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
