Hoping Will or Matt or Lukas might see this —

With the (excellent-sounding) new draft updates, is there any chance that you've made the draft-specific fields (namely: school, commit school, school year, and draft year) editable in the draft pool import/export CSV? That hasn't been the case in the past, and it prevents the OOTP community from creating and sharing accurate draft classes.

I like to create more expansive and detailed real-life classes to use in-game (going much deeper on prep prospects than the baseline game does), but those draft pools can’t currently be transferred from save to save, because draftees’ school info isn’t part of the CSV file. High school standouts become redshirt college seniors; guys move from Vanderbilt to Southwest Central Wyoming State; and so forth. For me, it detracts enormously from the immersion — and fixing the CSV omission would provide a great opportunity for dedicated players to improve upon the game’s built-in draft classes (which, respectfully, are often missing a lot of prominent prospects, including first-round talents).

This simple improvement would make it possible for any user or users to build robust, accurate draft classes that any other user could deploy. If there’s any chance of making this small change in ‘26, I would appreciate it immensely — perhaps others would as well.
