Very few team has full homegrown status but who has have my respect. I got only 2 guys that are homegrown, another of them are in the NT. but I got full roster of players from my home country and I think that is pretty cool :) while I'm ranked 66 in the world right now but the highest I have reached is around 50. But I know its easier when you come from smaller country :)

I'm surprised no one has mentioned I'll Replace You With Machines. They are a decently successful D.lll team with ALL drafted players. I believe he had a perfect 22-0 season last season as well.

We´we got one fully homegrown team in Sweden as well (26577). After an expected slow start mid-season 18, he is now starting to get wins. Must say that all the homegrown coaches are true BB-heroes, in their own way.

I think it would be near impossible to make the highest division with 5 homegrown starters because you can only train 2 or 3 players to a decent level at any one time.

Here's one guy that made D2 with this strategy in mind. (25075)

Notice that he's never bought a single player on the transfer wire either. But it looks like it was a painfully slow process for him even to make it to the lower levels of D2.

Yeah i think it is practically impossible to reach a top league with only players you drafted. Buying other players from your own nation makes it way easier. In american leagues i dont think he would have even been able to get past D.III to play in the second division with his roster.
