Over the past couple of seasons I have built my team to run n gun. I put up tons of 3's and lead my league with attempts and 3pt fg's..even my center and power forward will jack some up at times. Lately though I have read and noticed on D-4 teams are successful using primarily LI. I know I will need to sale off Miho or Adrian who are 12+ on fg's and OS, yet my PF's (which a couple play center) are at least a 9 on IS and 9 on ID. You, Teams that specifically use various offenses still rely on heavy outside shooting when playing LI? Or are there teams that are ranking high using PTB, RNG??? I used motion at times in the past and it seemed to work OK as well as Princeton, but I'm on the verge of moving up this season hopefully to D4 and want to know if I should be scrapping some outside shooters and find me a $45k big man?

I wouldn't scrap your shooters. Your income will get a pretty significant boost when you promote- buy a good inside player or two then. Your perimeter players should be good enough to compete at the next level.

Thanks....sounds good. I'll probably wait until the deadline and get me a 28-30 yr old center/big man with at a 10 on IS and ID and avg passing, strong rebounding and shot blocking and maybe sale off a couple of bigs I have now.
