Well, in the past we didn't because I believe Disney owns the license? Isn't it Donald Duck? However, we can put it in now and is on the list for 2010. We are hoping to add a ton of new mascots next year (though I can't promise it won't be cut).

You need the Scarlet Knight mascot either one of them in NCAA 2010. You have a background picture of the one when you set your favorite team to Rutgers.

Yes, the university has to pay Disney royalties for the use of Donald Duck as the mascot.

Oh and they've installed a new HD screen at Autzen

There is a huge difference between creating a mascot and getting it to work with the skeleton and debugging all its animations than it is to drop some photos from http://www.collegiateimages.com/ into the UI.

Still though. If I remember correctly our mascot was a playable character in the 2008 Mascot Games or the year before.

Right.. and we only use school owned mascots (except when we added Vili the Warrior who turned around and sued us cause he's not the mascot, just some dude that shows up to games dressed like that!). But apparently we have the license now because he is in NCAA Basketball I think.

Yeah, he's on PS2. We added him for NCAA 2006 I believe.

BTW... with all the hate mascots get around here, I LOVE it when people post "Where's my mascot?"

Well all of them should be in the game unless you cannot get the licensing rights for them. If you couldn't get the rights to use the Scarlet Knight then that's fine, but to just not program him in is iffy.

Same goes for every team should have their true to life stadium by now, not just the BCS schools.

Re: Stadium Updates

Also people tend to only hate that Mascot Game, not the Mascots walking around the stadium because that adds a sense of real college football to the game. People could care less about playing a game with Sebastian the Ibis versus Albert the Gator.

When you advertise a new feature dubbed "Celebrate with the Mascot" and your mascot isn't in the game it's kind of a downer.
