Wouldnt you take on the pipelines of the team you put as your template NOT the team you replace since the pipelines come from where your recruits are from so just make sure your players are from harder states or maybe make sure you DON'T have any states that have enough players for the states to be a pipeline.

Re: Hardest State to Recruit Out of?

It's a combination of your roster template and the team you replace IIRC.

New Hampshire is no picnic to recruit either

If you're placing it in any state you want then Alaska and the Dakotas are obvious choices, but don't forget about Hawaii. They're either tied for the fewest recruits per year (4) or they possibly have 5. Like Alaska, your proximity pitches are gonna suck. As an added bonus (over Alaska) you have an established school already there (even though they suck, I'm assuming they'll still be a lot more prestigious than your TB school) to sign away your in state recruits.

Re: Hardest State to Recruit Out of?

I appreciate all the input you guys have given. The suggestion of Hawaii with extra competition is not something I had thought of. However, I decided to place the team in Alaska. The idea of being the only team in a state and being able to build a program off local recruits seemed appeasing to me. I liked the suggestion of placing the team in that small town in Alaska. I ultimately decided to do something a little more unrealistic and placed the school in a ghost town.

Placing a one star team in canada can lead to some recruiting problems as well, but for a state Alaska would more than likely be the worst.

Re: Hardest State to Recruit Out of?

I play with a teambuilder team in Alaska every year, and it's hard to imagine any other state creates fewer prospects than Alaska. You get on average about 5 per year, 3-4 of them will be 1-star players, and anyone good has no interest in playing for you.

However, if you take a roster from a west coast school, recruiting is not impossible. If you have a California pipeline, life is not that difficult. If you want to make it REALLY impossible, play in Alaska and have all your pipeline states be in the south by choosing the roster of a Sun Belt school. There will be very very minimal interest in your school by anyone.
