My daughter gave me another idea when I was talking with her about Coaches McKillop and O'Hanlon. Bob McKillop was succeeded at Davidson by his son, Matt, who also played for his father in the mid-2000s.
"That's really cool," she observed. Then she got an idea. "Can you make players in your game?" she asked me. When I told her I could, she said "You should make me a brother."
"That's a good idea," I replied. So, I'm going to go into Tools mode to create a future recruit.
In our story, Graham Sims is now 43 years old. If I wait another year before I create an 17-year-old son for Graham, he would have become a father at the same age I did in real life. I'll make Graham's son good enough to play for Lafayette, but not so good that he "breaks" the simulation. Then I'll recruit him and see if I can sign him. Then, after he graduates, I'll decide if I want him to follow his dad into college coaching like Matt McKillop has done.
I think this will be a fun storyline to follow!
