Hi all,

I've been around for almost a season now, but I still have some questions about long-term strategy - especially now that I have 3 draft picks to deal with. If anyone is willing to offer me some advice, please BB-Mail me and I'll reply with some of my questions. Thanks in advance for any help offered.

I got you.

-Your fellow hokie.

Hello
New here on BB and looking for someone to show me the ropes a bit. I have tried absorbing as much as I could in the past few days, but a lot of it is quite daunting. Any help I can get is appreciated.

Cutch

Hello all, I followed Cutch here from another simulation game. Like him, I'm also looking for someone to show me the ropes. Any mentoring would be appreciated. =)

Shetan

I need a mentor too, I think i learn alot the three days i have been here

GM-brian
Have said he will be my mentor, Yah!!! Lol.

I joined a couple weeks ago, but i am still having trouble improving my team and managing all of my money. any tips for me. If you could BB mail me that would be great. Right now I am trying to sell two of my better players in order to get a really good 18 year old to train along with my 20 year old down low. I have 12 players right now and i am training rebounding for my bigs. I am trying to look to expand my arena to get more income. My weekly income looks like this:

Expenses Revenue
Player Salaries: $ 50 219 Attendance: $ 57 515
Staff Salaries: $ 27 250 Merchandise: $ 13 492
Scouting: $ 5 000 TV Contract: $ 58 396
Total: $ 82 469 Total: $ 129 403

I keep losing to some lesser opponents and I feel like I might be doing something wrong.
Here is my main player that I am training right now

Ogeday Akarsu

DMI: 11600
Age: 20
Height: 7'0" / 213 cm

Jump Shot: mediocre Jump Range: pitiful
Outside Def.: atrocious Handling: inept

I did not do so well in the draft only getting one player that is worth playing. The other two are basically players i play in scrimmages and IR's.
This is my best player right now

I am trying to sell him because I am looking for a good younger player that I can train.

Any tips on that?

I am also wondering what I could do with this guy

Edit: I know your looking for help but if the player is currently up for sale you cannot post his skills.
