Your right, I don't know all of how this complex code( its not a space craft) works, but I know that these are factors that go in to determining the outcomes of games. Team prestige is one he mentioned, and it is all over the place years in dynasty.

Not sure why I'd say that. You have a link?

Correct. Team rating doesn't effect recruiting.

I guess we do. That back up red shirt center was my most improved player going up 9 points and never saw the field. Now he is a 87 and could start, but he has got to beat out that 2 star stud (81) I just got. Maybe I can red shirt him...he should be a 90 next year.

Who I got, why go after 5 stars when I can get these,

3 Star 86
3 Star 85
3 - 3 Star 84
4 - 2 Star all in the 80's

Also, my freshman QB already rated 85 improved 5 - only play in 1 game mop up - so now he is 90 Jr...rated just as good as a Fla State QB (Sr) who played all season. And if he improves next year 5, gonna be rated up there with the best of them and hasn't played a full game in his career.

Thats how you can take a dog team and turn them around in a couple of years, so again, yes I guess we got different games.

You said that there were many variables that affect W/L in simmed games and team prestige star rating was one of them I recall, I am pretty sure thats what you said. Maybe I missunderstood something but I don't know? I know I just did not say that out of thin air. It was a disscussion in the big dynasty thread somewhere.

Its of little consequence now.

I guess I was talking about something else. I know progression is prestige based.
