BBCF-Penn State keeps taking my targets in Virginia.
I play as Virginia Tech and I have had several good seasons and have a prestige 10 points higher than Penn State but every year Penn State takes the top recruit in Virginia and 3 to 5 other top player. I use play to win as the pitch.
Top 10 Prospects In Virginia 2009-5 to Penn State, 3 to Virginia Tech, 2 other schools 2010-4 to Penn State, 2 to Virginia Tech, 4 other schools 2011-6 to Penn State, 3 to Virginia Tech, 1 other school 2012-4 to Penn State, 3 to Virginia Tech, 3 other schools |

Use your scouting report to narrow down the pitches for your recruits. If you just use that one all of the time, you're not going to have much success. |

BBCF uses regions as a more powerful indicator then they do states. You have just as much of a shot at recruiting someone from Virgina as you do in Maine.

send 2 pitches to each recruit. if that don't work, send 4 pitches. if they not coming, send 8 pitches. if they still go to penn state, maybe bbcf not the game for you.

I had a recruiting class ranked 105th after finishing 11-1 with VA Tech, I only targeted Virginia and lost on all of the top recruits. I was trying to get the 11 5-star recruits in Virginia that year with my 11 scholarships. Went for broke and got none of them.

I just finished playing a game with USC and went 10-2 and California had something like 25 of the 100 players in the country. My scholarships did not cover 8 of the players. I got only 2 of the players but the recruiting class ended up 18th in the country due to the fact that I had several fall back targets in California. Went for the ultimate recruiting class and got a bad one for USC's standards.

Usually there are 1 or 2 per year and one simulation I did Virginia had only 1 4 star player and only 3 3 star players. I try to stay in state because it is cheaper to recruit. Why pay 2000 more for a 4 star RB out of state when you can save money by staying in state unless I need a specific position (usually K and P which are rare) |

I've never played as Virginia Tech before, but my guess is that they have enough money to go after both in-state and out-of-state guys. Are you spending all your money every week?

Yes I do spend it every week on recruiting and calling players. I make pitches to almost every player in Virginia and have them to fallback as the top players make decisions. Then if any players at positions I need I go out of state to make pitches and scholarships to them. First, Virginia then out of state.

DeToxRox coaches the Hokies in the FOFC-BBCF league and he usually has a pretty impressive recruiting class.

I looked at that recruting class at BBCF-FOFC and said if I were Penn State I would start a thread Virginia Tech keeps taking my targets in Pennsylvania. I may play another game with Virginia Tech and target Pennsylvania and New Jersey and call the team Pennsylvania Jersey Tech.
