Coach Prestige Affect Player Progression?

[NoFussGus]

In my OD, we have coaching carousel off. So all coaches are stuck at whatever prestige they started with. We are wondering if coach prestige affects player progression in the offseason with coaching carousel off?

So one user has a D+ Coach prestige while I have a B coach prestige. Is he forever at a disadvantage because my recruits will progress more?

Does coach prestige affect player progression with coaching carousel off?

Short term answer, YES, a pretty big one
Long term answer, maybe not

coach prestige will still rise and fall based on the season your teams have. The coaches just wont change teams and you wont have a contract to fulfill. Thats all. So you'll always have the same playbook and philosophy(unless you change them yourself). If his team were to out perform your team in a manner that you had a losing season and he had a winning season it would equal out in a few seasons and then he might gain the advantage if you kept losing every season.

That or after 6 seasons or so, you both will be an a or a+(you faster than him) because you both will have been winning most of your games each season.
