Did someone go into the universe files and edit each college?

Of course, I am rooting for your prospects, but I just favor the flavor of some of the names more than others. Or my previous biases influence who I root for, like rooting for Donnie(y?) Jones in your universe. Thus, names like Bill Welch, Sam Pratt, Doug Lang, Marv Sandau, Dode Caudill, and Bill Grimm all have names that conjure images in my head. Sam Pratt as a smooth flowing, fast running SS. He's like a Scurrying Sam Pratt. His feet are like a "prattling" mouth, moving a mile a minute. Now you know a name I just added to my name file: Scurrying Sam Pratt.
Yes! Scurrying Sam Pratt is perfect for the CBO!

And yeah, TigerFan covered it but yeah our commish did a lot of work to give us some era-specific flavor and some unique schools. Really helps with the immersion
