End of Recruiting Issue

I agree, it would be a great little feature but they would need to up the roster to at least 85, and it would be nice if we could also have a say, 10 person practice squad, but that is probably a pipe dream.

Something happened to me the other day in off season recruiting that I wasn't happy about. I'm not sure if it is a glitch, but to me, it sure seemed like one. In week 1 of the off season, I put 2 4-star guys on my board who were new off season recruits. I am not in the top 10 and after week 1, I move up to number 2 or 3. I recruit them very hard and by week 5, I am sitting at #1 and 100's, maybe even 1000 points ahead of second place. And then signing day comes.......
He signs with somebody else and I'M NOT EVEN IN THE TOP 10!!!! This happened on BOTH guys I put on my board in the off season. And on top of that, about 5 teams jumped into the top 10 that last week too.

That's the point, though. We all want a realistic game. That is realistic.

In real life, if you cut freshman recruits like crazy, I can guarantee you that some recruits would not want to come to your school. The game is realistic by dropping your integrity if you cut kids before they get a chance to play.

If you're a player, and you are offered a scholarship by 2 schools you would like to play for, one coach has a reputation for cutting freshman before they get a chance to play, and the other does not. Which school would you choose?

So this is in the game? Cool. Does your integrity take a hit for cutting upper classmen?

I can't confirm that personally, because I haven't finished a year in my dynasty yet. (And even if I had, I tend not to cut a bunch of freshmen)

But that's the way it sounds.

I don't believe it is. It was started as an "It would be great if..." type of thing. Sorry about the confusion.

Oh yeah, just re-read the thread.

Here's to reading comprehension, lol
