Recruit Problem

[Shibito]

A nice solution would be for EA to give us the choice of setting the prospects top 10 schools when we create them.

I mean hey, we're creating them, why can't we pick where they want to go, and maybe even what pitch's they're interested in?

I've never seen this pink diamond does it show up during the phone call?

if you are willing to go that far then just find a scrub who wants to go to your school, pitch/sign him and then edit him to what you want

when the new patch comes out you will be able to modify hight and weight too so why not save the trouble? creating a great prospect and then having to work to get him is part of the 'fun' of dynasty mode, if you are going to remove that challenge then just do it the easy way...

Then someone playing as Northwest South Dakota State University could create 20 5* interested in your school...

I believe it's in the recruit adviser DLC.

eh, not really... if no one is going after the guy you can usually work your way into his top ten.

And the pink diamond thing shows up when you are looking up for recruits to add to your board. You have to view their information to see it. I'm pretty sure there is either a x2, unlock, instant commit, or pink diamond every week. If you call the prospects that are currently on your board and none of the other ones come up, then there is probably a pink diamond recruit to be found.

Some people like making real life high school prospects, and while they may not be interested in our school in the dynasty, it would be nice to pick who they appear to be interested in, in real life. Then we could see where they end up going, or maybe even make a run at them ourselves.
