Obviously, that makes recruiting a bit more challenging. I assume there's nothing to be done but just lump it for the next few seasons until they graduate? I didn't see any options for rescinding a scholarship once granted. Updated Tuesday, February 27 2024 @ 5:10:59 pm PST

You redshirt a few of the SO to break up that group and make sure you don't have a 8-player class to fill in the future. 2. You ride it out and let the players graduate so that you can recruit your own players faster. *Remember, you do not have to fill all available scholarship spots each year and can refill that 8-man sophomore class over the span of 2-3 seasons.

You have more scholly players than you do conference wins in the last several seasons. Set your training to Video/Film Work, don't red shirt nobody, and of course try to move the ball on the perimeter with I guess Sylla at point guard. Might be funner to be a president elsewhere given the situation (optional to ask for a transfer to a new team), but you may like the allure of turning it all around though it'll take months irl to do so.

I'll probably lump it out - I picked up Hardwood as a slow burn sort of game but I didn't quite realize how bad the roster was constructed. It'll be this time next calendar year (i.e., 2025) before I can even hope of getting out of VI. URF... In the mean time, since I can only recruit one player next year, I can toss the kitchen sink at them without feeling any regret! Updated Wednesday, February 28 2024 @ 2:57:34 pm PST
