well many of the top managers in a country are doing significant work in scouting for the NT. should they also be disqualified by your logic?

by the way. setting a scrimmage lineup in the B3 finals should be a strong argument against being the greatest manager of al time (GMOAT) ;)

I agree. rwystyrk Should be in the top 5 of all time just because of his accomplishments. So what if he might've took advantage of being the NT manager the bottom line is that he finds ways to win. Phil Jackson never coached a team without a superstar on it but his still considered one of the greatest coaches never because he won contantly. Nobody judges you on how you win. You just gotta find away to win the best way you can. Take advantage of everything you can.

I'd like someone to explain why managing the NT and winning D1 titles is not easier than just manage a top division team. I've already argued that people should be removed (not added) points in the discussion for best manager if they were managing the NT when they won D1 or B3 titles, as managing the NT does give a substantial advantages compared to the rest of the field.
Wait, what? I don't see the correlation. What are you suggesting, that NT managers just put their own guys on the team? And they purposely screw other D1 members out of merchandise money? Cause I can see how that would give a small benefit, but I also don't see how that manager lasts for more than 2 seasons. And I can't see how that argument affects any NT manager that won world's gold. Rwystyrk should be penalized for winning a D1 title because he also won a worlds gold as a NT manager?

If you don't understand the advantages a NT manager has compared to the other 15 D1 managers in his nation and even B3 competitors who are not NT managers then I won't go any further.
Yeah, if you could just outline some of these, that'd be great. I'm having trouble gaining an advantage on my D1 opponents, so I'd appreciate any help I can get.

NT managers have direct access to all types of elite builds and get a better understanding of how the ME works with each of those builds applied to different tactics.
It's definitely an advantage at club level.
Long term NT managers have the above, plus builds built to their requirements and experiments. Rwstwyk is actually the best example of this. I don't think he is one of the greatest club managers, but he's one of BBs great experimenters.

That's actually a great idea with the points system.
