I hope it isn't based on stats and based more upon the prestige of the school and the players potential. Stat based progression needs to stick to MMO's.

Just started a thread about that. I think awareness should represent game speed.

I like the idea of recruit ratings being scaled down but if you do this I hope you also scale down player ratings like Madden has done this year. I no longer want to see the third best safety on Florida who has done nothing in college rated in the high 80s.

Keep up the good work.

Also, I would like to mention that I am not a fan of the season showdown mode. This does not seem to appeal at all to the hardcore gamer and sounds more like a tradition fluff feature. Maybe there is more to it than I have heard so far but as of now I would rather have improvements to presentation and gameplay.

Just my 2 cents.

I'm in year 2012 of a dynasty right now. So I went to view all rosters and sorted by speed:

1. 99 (Darius Miles )
2. 98
3. 97
4. 97
5. 97
6. 97
7. 96
8. 96
9. 96
10. 96

OMT, no FCS teams in dynasty correct, just FCS East right?

This should definately help gamplay 5-10 years into a dynasty. Last year by the time you got to year 5 all your opponents had a rating of B+ at the most - all the A+, A and A- schools were long gone.

Will players increase in size as they progress? Players coming out of HS are often 20+ lighter than when they leave college.

Will user controlled teams be able to progress faster than CPU controlled teams? (assuming both are small 1 star programs and in the same state)

This looks great! Getting that 97+ speed guy is now like finding a diamond in the rough.
