College Question

millhousebc · 02-20-2017, 10:19 PM

When a college team in my feeder league releases a player, over the age of 22, that I have capped on age restrictions, why is that player not a FA now? Have a couple of 23 yr old players that look like they won't play this year, as they are too old for my NCAA league, but other teams can't offer them contracts?

Are you viewing the FA's from the College League window?

That is, did you open your NCAA league to view it, then clicked on FA without switching back to your Major Leagues? If you did that, you'll only see players who are age-eligible to play in your College League.

I play without drafts, just have the feeder leagues release into the FA pool, and accidentally do this all the time.

Do the aged out players all appear as FA at once or is it as they hit the age limit throughout the OOTP year?

At once at the end of the NCAA year. I just manually put the back on their college team, see if they get drafted next year.

Side question, but how does everyone set up their college ranks.

Maybe I've just missed it but it would be so great to have an all-in-one download for the college feeder system.

I took Big Rod's NCAA league and made it into a template, and then added that template to my MLB league.
