This is what I miss about the older versions of NCAA. Offseason recruiting used to be more fun than the season itself; it's where ALL the recruiting happened. Now, you're correct, offseason recruiting doesn't really mean too much, especially if you're a small school. You better have signed a lot of recruits or at least be in on them before offseason hits, because if you're not, you're pretty much screwed. I know this is realistic, but I do miss the offseason being the most important time in recruiting. The whole in-season recruiting is so anti-climatic because you're only signing one guy at a time and there's so much else going on with the games being played, etc., most of the time you don't really care all that much.

Oh man, I do remember those days...On the PS2 before there was even 'Online' Dynasties...I use to have my 3-4 friends come play their seasons at my house every single day just so that we were on the same dynasty and then every offseason, we would make a huge night of offseason and recruiting and stuff...It use to be so exciting to sign like 6-10 guys in a week of offseason recruiting haha
