I train many players over 22, so does everyone else. 22 is not the end all be all of training.

People do train players over 22, but they also train players from 18 to 21. Take away the training from 18 to 21 and you take away the majority of training done by people.

Like I said, 3 times, it is an idea. Quit getting so worked up over such little things.

And each time I was simply pointing out why it was a bad idea. No need to get worked up over such little things.

Finally,
as I said,
STOP RESPONDING TO ME.

Fortunately this the internet and I am free to respond to whoever I wish. If you do not wish to accept that there is a red cross at the corner of your window, feel free to use it.

If you can't stop them from doing it anyway, make a legal version that makes the illegal one obsolete- otherwise the only people being punished are the ones not cheating. Right now teams that do not cheat, like me, are at a disadvantage. I train my own 18 and 19y/os. Few else do that. Many have a farm somewhere else or just watch teh TL for the products of their farms. This lowers the value of what I am doing signifigantly, since there are so many farm teams completely devoted to training, my guys aren't rare.

i have 50.000 farms even without cheating ;) because i look at the tl, for players other dudes have trained. it is always faster and easier to buy the player you want, them make another team and train them yourself(maybe even farming 3 season money to even buy the trainee you need, just to discover after additional 5 season training that some other dudes wants the player too and give more money ;))

And you say it yourself, your guys aren't rare, the "farms"(i like to call them other managers) also producing them so that you could buy them on the TL instead of wasting 8 seasons to train them with a second team.

I train many players over 22, so does everyone else. 22 is not the end all be all of training.

i also train everytime, and i have just one player who is below 21 and just trained occasionally ;) So you would even have farms(call them for example Massendefekt 67) who makes, your player not unique on the transferlist and you had to suggest a new server where every one had teams to train the 21 to 35 year olds. or a server where you play alone, without anyone else training players.

I think your basic idea is good but it should be a completely different game just utilising a lot of the GE. So have a game called BuzzerBeaterCollege.

The offseason would be very big as each team tried to recruit the best high school prospects. I used to play another online college Basketball Game and this part was by far the most fun part of that game.

There shouldn't be a TL at all with players being sold instead just a list of players without a scholarship who you can try and recruit.

Players would start at age 18 or 19 and would have 4 years of eligibility with an optional 1 year of being redshirted.

Some may enter the pros early and you may lose them if they are really amazing. Don't know if that is a good feature or a bad one. Recruit a young LeBron and you may only get one season of him.

You could set your rosters the same way you do now but training would be very different. You should be able to set up to 3 different trainings a week, so maybe the PGs were getting passing training, the wingmen getting JS and the C/PF were geting rebounds.

This should require minimal work seeing as it would use most of the code and GE from regular BB and could be a new revenue stream.

Interesting?

Interesting idea but I've gotta agree with the Naker train of thought... this is just such a drastic change that it would completely alter the game, and there's no reason to make such big changes to a game that already works. As the saying goes, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

Maybe as others have said, this could be an idea for a separate game on a separate website but not BB.

A separate game on a separate website. Sounds really cool, the college experience of trying to form your team so it can peak in the one right season is so different from the pro experience where you just keep the same stars forever.
