And that isn't counting those from Orlando that may have gone to a smaller school but still identify with UCF.

This person you describe doesn't exist

Sure, plenty of schools like FullSail university that turn out technical or artsy folk that still attend UCF football games with their friends.

My best friend works for them and is heavily involved in Madden.  He runs the 'packs' stuff (I admittedly have no idea what it is called) and is in charge of marketing.  USF Alum and loves the Bulls.  I can tell you that the conversations they have do not reflect where players went to college.

In fact I will send him this just to hear his reaction.

Ask him how many people on the Madden team went to UCF? I'd like to see how close it is to 75%.

the ratings are very complex and in depth, however the person who was considered the ratings czar was a UCF grad. :stirpot:

My cousin Greg Naile worked on the Madden games prior to passing away in 2008. I've never been one for video games, but in one of the years where he worked on the game, he placed his face on that of an official (he'll be around forever I suppose). He went to the Ringling School of Art and Design. The best part about him working there was landing the job while delivering the pizza to one of the designers. My cousin lived pretty hard while around - the life of a surfer I suppose. Thanks for bringing up a good memory whomever started the thread.

Not sure what his rating should be but he has only 8 combined runs/passes in the NFL and 13 yards. I can't imagine anyone would rate him very high based on that. I don't know that Madden raters look into ratings of practice squad players and probably don't rate on potential.
