Hello Dutch Farmer,
Well, I've been, a long time ago, in the same situation, but in Real Life, when I was "hired" by a teammate, for his basketball club, because "there was not enough adult in the team" :D
We lost ALL games by 40-80 pts, each week end. (it was in the last division of France basketball Federation !)
But, week after week, we worked , and we managed to win 2 or 3 games, and I very well remember the first win :)
I think, in BB, that you'll be VERY motivated by the 2-3 games you will play versus the other teams of your level, as I am when I played the ones that are very next to my level. Then, you'll be able to estimate your work every week, every season. Next season, your payroll will be 80k (maybe...) and the season after, 100k...
Homegrown is not a game where you can create big surprise, you have to manage your team season after season, and I would say, it's more 5 seasons by 5 seasons, when you end a cycle of training. Personnaly, for 4 seasons, I train my 2 very good players from draft (POT 9 & 10 !). That's the first time I have such great potentials, and I would like to have a team in order to staying in Div2. But, I also have to manage my "old" players, who turn 35, and will go down slightly, but undoubtfully.
