Great stuff, the U never gets thrown into these debates but is a great school of academia. The academies are usually forgotten as well but I doubt there are tougher places to be a student athlete, especially the Fighting Falcons out of Colorado Springs.

LMAO, I was gonna say the same thing. If you can breathe, you get into that school. Don't be fooled by their acceptance rates, either. It's only low because half the nation wants to go there.

From what I have seen, I think the only reason they went with a random selection for pitches is because it was way too easy before, when you could just pick the same topics your school was good at and recruit a guy fairly easily. Now they actually make you address your weak points as well.

What troubles me is it seems like it was really easy to make up ground on the schools ahead of you. Only about 250 point separated the top schools form the lowest ones, and he probably made up about 100 or more points with just one recruiting call. I hope the recruiting difficulty was set lower for his demonstration.

The Big Ten should generally be better than the Big 12 and SEC, that's for sure.

I know people who have been accepted to ND but declined to USC. ND is generally a bit better of a school than USC, but it isn't by much.

LOL @ Baylor. Avg SAT score of roughly 1200. Even I did better than that. They accept fifty percent of their applicants...

New recruiting looks good... Good to see EA making strides.

I like the new idea of the points since now you can see that you are not moving up/down because another school matched/beat your points from last week. In real life, I think they know if another school is still in pursuit of another player. You arent gaining/losing b/c of 'mathmatics' since the points are based on your ability to use recruiting points/promises/offer. I like the change-who's coming with me? Who's coming with me? Well, this is embarrassing.

I think the new system levels the playing field in regards to recruiting. Gone are the days or 3+ hours on topics to get practically every recruit.
