How long roughly will it take to get a 3 star school to be really good?

So I always play offline dynasty mode and have played with a team I created through TeamBuilder which is a 6 star so recruiting is not very difficult for me. I'd like to start a dynasty with NC State which is a 3 star but I didn't know how long it might take for them to start pulling in 4 and 5 star recruits. I had a few 4 stars interested but no 5s at all. I am curious because I like to play about 5-10 seasons and then move on but I didn't know if it would be maybe like a 12 year turnaround that would be more work than I wanted to put into it. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

As SDSU (1*) I got 1 5* my 5th year and 2 my 6th year. As a 3 Star, it might take you 4 or so years to get 5* recruits, depending on how successful you are on field.

Thank you! I appreciate it. That's not bad at all. I wanted to get an idea of what to expect. I don't mind playing quite a few years but if it turns out to be 15 years I have a short attention span.

Thanks again!

Took me 8 years to win a NC with Texas Tech. Heisman difficulty (though very adjusted sliders) and AA recruiting. Though I think it will normally take longer than that - I got a 4* dual threat QB who was 99 OVR as a senior and that made it alot easier!

Depends on if it's an OD or a single player dynasty. Took me 4 seasons to get my 2* team to 6* prestige.

Ya, it took me 4 years to make it to a championship with Louisiana Tech and another 2 years after that just to make it to 6 star prestige. But I tried taking Tulane in my Online Dynasty and it's a lot slower because you have to wait on everyone and you cant play a season in under a week haha.

Took me 2 seasons to make it to a bowl with Tulane (1-star) after going 4-8 in year 1. I was invited to the SEC after Year 4 and won a national title to conclude Year 7 of the dynasty.
