Where is the best place to find names for players?

dewey412 · 11-23-2007, 03:42 PM

I am working on a PS2 version of the rosters, and I am using Yahoo, ESPN, CBS Sportsline, and the teams athletic sites...Yet, so far i'm still coming up short on some names...

I really want to complete this, as it seems nobody is really trying to work on a PS2 roster, so any help would be great....

Thanks in advance....

i purchased a couple of the magazines - sporting news and athlon - they're very helpful as well.

If you want to buy a yearbook the Blue Ribbon Yearbook is the best, but it cost about $25. It has by far the most info on every DI team.

I used the team's actual site...

does this include rosters as well? i got a football magazine sometime back through the same company and it didn't have any rosters...too much reading to find all the details (which were great) but didn't allow one to put together rosters quickly enough. thanks for any info.!

I've been using team sites too, but some of the numbers don't add up...I'm making a list of all the ones I can't find....For example: C#50, SR, 6'11, 285 for Temple...That's just one of a few players i'm having trouble finding...Nothing matches up on any site for him, and he has an overall of 70, so he shouldn't be too hard too find, right?

No, you're right, it doesn't have it in roster format...at least last year's copy didn't.

C #50 for Temple is a guy that is off the team. That was Wayne Marshall. You can just release him.

Rivals is the best or every team has it's own web site.
