Your thoughts on scholarship limit

I don't suppose splitting the game into 2 discs (like Battlefield 3), would help solve the problem? You could put Dynasty, OD and RTG on one disc, and Play Now and online modes on another.

you gotta remember the crowd that EA sports caters to. It's a "pop it in and run up the score" crowd. 2 discs would be like "wut bro? no way"

Not the only features but I think being able to make packages would solve a lot of problems.

I do not know if this was included in the SEC rule or not, but I know in the Big Ten if you did not use your scholarships from the year prior and freshman early enrolls, those would not count toward your current years 25. The other thing to keep in mind, and again I do not know the particulars of the SEC rule, is when the rule takes affect?

I think most of us, at least myself, would still cut 6-8 guys per year. Roster limit wouldn't affect the number of my recruits. I do agree that it would be a nice addition when related to depth on the lines.

I don't! I maybe cut 2 ppl, and that's a BIG maybe. Most of the time I don't have to cut anyone.

I over-recruit every year. Once I have the players I need and the players I want, then I go after the ones with Top 5 and Top 8 that are still hanging around just to keep other big programs from cherry picking them late. Also, if I have a need at a position that is weak during the season, I'll go after a JUCO player instead ,and then if I can replace him in the 5 weeks after the National Championship Game, I'll just cut him for a higher rated, younger player.
