Morning everyone... Quick question for you. Was in my offline dynasty for about 15 minutes last night to do a little recruiting and I notice my Academic Prestige went from an A+ to an A. I'm the OC for Stanford...

How do I get that back up to an A+? Am I recruiting players with Awareness that's too low or are my players partying it up too much between practices and games? (which is counter-intuitive if you follow the Cliff Claven school of thought about intelligence and drinking...)

Just struck me as odd considering it's Stanford.

Thanks in advance and Cheers!

Based off of the emoticon you posted, I imagine you are setting a poor example for the kids.

Honestly, I have no clue. This happens to me in some dynasties, and it is very annoying.

This happened to me with Maryland too. I think it has to do with underclass players leaving for the NFL early.

Hmm. I guess that would make sense. Well, I guess I'll just have to figure out how to keep them around all 4-5 years.

Thanks!

I'm not to sure about that, I've heard it's completely random from year to year and I've also heard that it could be from kids leaving early.

Academic Prestige is based on how many seniors you graduate. If they leave early it does not help it hurts. Now if they are seniors and are they are entering the NFL Draft then I believe it still helps and not hurts. It is based on how many seniors graduate and do not leave early or transfer from your school.

With USF in year 1 I was D+ and year 2 I was C-. I have no idea why. The school academic ratings in Florida are completely ****ed, but that is a different rant for a different thread lol

Academic Prestige is based on how important AP is to the players on your team. So if you recruit a bunch of guys who have "Low" or "Least" etc as their importance for AP, then your AP ranking will go down.
