Re: Could NBA 2K16 be Implementing College Hoops?

As much as I'd love and want to play for Texas, I like the idea of being a HS star, signing with a college and this "Vic" character getting you involved in a situation that leads to your expulsion, forcing to play overseas for a year. Maybe that will be an outcome influenced by your decisions.

That being said, I still want to lead Texas to a championship and go pro afterwards above anything else.

Taking a closer look at the Anthony Davis cover now, seems like Kentucky is indeed a no go for the game.

Spoiler


Photo of Anthony Davis cutting down the net after the Kentucky National Championship victory. Notice the "2012 NCAA Men's" wording just above the "National Champions" wording. Now notice the University of Kentucky logo just above that.

Spoiler


Now observe the same spots on the shirt. Missing a few things right? Would line up with the missing North Carolina stuff on the MJ cover and the lack of licensing on CLC too. Thanks for the high-res image Steve!!

EDIT: Just caught the missing NCAA Basketball wording on the ladder in the 2K cover as well. Pictures really are worth a thousand words.

I'm still going to hold out hope on Kentucky. CLC does not represent Kentucky, so that explains why they aren't on that initial list. Since there are 11-12 teams, I'd place my money on there being a few more to get to an even 16. I don't think 2K would go through the process of obtaining licenses, implementing an elite 8 in MyCareer, and leaving 3-4 teams out given the season. The fact that they already have more than 8 leads me to believe they'll go for 16, probably teams that aren't represented by CLC (Kentucky, Ohio State, Davidson, Notre Dame, Michigan State, Indiana just to name some.)

If 2K had yet to obtain the license from UK when they released the covers months ago, that would explain why the logo was removed from Anthony Davis' picture.

I hope they have the atmosphere of college ball in the game. PC version will hopefully open up more college opportunities shortly after release.

Can't believe I'm going to be able to play as UConn again...it's been a long eight years.

OS started talking about this 6-7 days ago, so maybe they're not the ones who need to get it together.

Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

It's not nowhere on the main page saying anything about 2k having 10+ college teams
