If you changed players hometown would it change pipeline states?

Even in real life, Tubberville is focusing on Florida recruits too) So yeah, in that sense, I may change it pre-dynasty just for more realism. But I only play off-line so not like it affects anyone.

i wouldnt consider 4 players from florida a pipeline type situation.....4 out of 75 players

Not in real life, but in the game, yes. I am not saying it actually should be. But if you follow the guidelines of the game, which is if you have 4 players on your roster from the same state then that state becomes a pipeline, then TTU should have Florida.

I am not upset about it, since if I want to play by the rules of the game, then I can change it. Even though it's not like its hard to set up a pipeline in any state. Just grab four 1 star recruits during the off season and your done.

I started a dynasty with Troy so I wasn't able to recruit out of state very well and when I would look at my depth chart and at my recruiting board a large portion of players were from the same hometown. An unrealistic portion.

this happened in 11 too. Adamsville AL always has the most recruits every year, i've probably seen 20+
