Yeah, it's the gameplay/narrative disconnect that I mention in the post above. It's the price that comes with a cinematic storyline.

One other thought:

The last school should be Washington. A lot of people love making short guards in MyCareer and everyone knows that the most successful short guards come from Washington.

Besides we need the real Huskies repped. Amiright?

How long have you been watching basketball? I don't intend any offence I'm just genuinely curious. All of these schools have had success in college basketball.

Well since Villanova is the only real small school out of the bunch, I would probably choose that school for my Defensive PG.
I usually create 3 careers. I am not big on any of the other schools, so I would probably just choose based on best pitches

Not the same guy you asked but I've been watching basketball for a few years but never college ball, only colleges I really know that have had success are Duke, Kansas (from the Coach Carter movie haha), and Kentucky. I recognize some of the other teams because of the march madness.

You could ask me who's on what team in the NBA and I could name a lot of players on most teams but if you ask me who's on what college team I would have no idea because I simply don't watch it (although I plan on watching it starting this year).

I don't know, I think that Vaseline Tech can make run to the sweet 16, they've got some pretty slippery dudes on the perimeter.

Also Cocoa Butter State has Aaron Neville at power forward.


What would be really nice is being able to use custom teams and arenas as schools in addition to the licensed ones, including the school you choose to go to.


I mean they have audio clips of school names in already for the draft, right? And there's the arena/uniform/team creator that actually lets you upload any image. Just open all that up to be used in MyCareer.


Boom. Authentic NCAA schools, tourneys, and maybe even players, and you can go to ANY high school or college that you or someone else has made.

So with no Duke (which is incredibly disappointing I mean really) I'd eliminate Louisville since their another ACC school, Connecticut cuz they beat Duke in 99/04, Kansas because their another blue blood of this century, UCLA because its not the 60's or 70's

I'd probably choose between Michigan or Georgetown with Texas being a distant 3rd option
