Recruiting - nearly all 5 start players are RB or WR?

just finished my first year - i am noticing that certain positions dominate the Sparq 100...

my top 10 has 4 WR, 3 HB, 3 ATH...

11-20 has 4 WR, 1 HB, 2 ATH, 1 MLB, 2 CB

21-30 has SIX MORE WR's...

is this strange?

have you seen this?

Actually no. The #1 Guard in the country was a 5 star, and he was like #8

Each class is different. I have had several where there were a lot of cb's lb's and dl as top recruits.

This is what iv'e mostly seen also. Although it doesn't seem to matter because all the other positions progress nicely, HB's and WR's just come in higher rate as Freshman

Yeah every class I've seen WR's especially have made up 70% of the 5 stars.

SPARQ rating is an athleticism rating. I have no idea if it's balanced properly or not, but don't confuse SPARQ Top 100 with a "Rivals/ESPN Top 100," they're not the same thing.

To drive the point home, here are some real-life SPARQ ratings:



Of course there's no WRs there (lol), but you get the idea.

We are going by just the 5 star players. Apparently the higher SPARQ rating they have the greater chance they have of being a 5 star and it shouldnt be like that all the time.

The rivals top 100 last year had 5 defensive players and 2 offensive lineman in their top 10! You will never see thet in this game.

There is no Top 100 list in the game, I don't know why you guys don't understand that. You have to manually go through and look for the five star lineman. The Sparq list is just listening recruits by the athleticism rating. It is not like the ESPN Top 100 as was stated previously. There is nothing wrong with the generated recruits.
