Validation Errors for get_games and get_player_season_stats (v5.6.11)

[StoinkAI]

I'm using the cfbd-python library (version 5.6.11) to fetch college football data for a project. I'm encountering validation errors when calling certain functions for multiple recent seasons. More info below, thank you!

Environment:

• cfbd-python version: 5.6.11
• Python version: 3.11.9
• Operating System: Windows 11 Pro

Problem Description:

1. get_games errors: When calling GamesApi().get_games(year=YYYY, season_type='regular') for years 2023, 2022, and 2019, I consistently get validation errors like:

   Validation/Type error during schedule fetching: 9 validation errors for Game
   seasonType  none is not an allowed value (type=type_error.none.not_allowed)
   startDate   none is not an allowed value (type=type_error.none.not_allowed)
   # (Include the other field names listed in your error output) 
   awayTeam    none is not an allowed value (type=type_error.none.not_allowed)
   

   This happens even when fetching data for the full year without specific team/conference filters.

2. get_player_season_stats errors: When calling StatsApi().get_player_season_stats(year=YYYY, season_type='regular', category='passing') for years 2023, 2022, and 2019, I consistently get a validation error like:

   Validation/Type error during player stat fetching: 1 validation error for PlayerStat
   season  none is not an allowed value (type=type_error.none.not_allowed)
   

   This happens even when fetching data without specific team/conference filters.

It seems the library's data models might not be handling potential null/None values returned by the API for these fields in recent years' data.

Steps to Reproduce (Example):

# Assuming API_CLIENT is configured correctly using cfbd version 5.6.11
try:
    games_api = cfbd.GamesApi(API_CLIENT)
    games_response = games_api.get_games(year=2022, season_type='regular') 
    # Error occurs here or during processing/conversion of games_response
    print("Fetched games successfully?") 
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error fetching games: {e}") 

try:
    stats_api = cfbd.StatsApi(API_CLIENT)
    stats_response = stats_api.get_player_season_stats(year=2022, category='passing')
    # Error occurs here or during processing/conversion of stats_response
    print("Fetched stats successfully?")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error fetching stats: {e}")
