    Pink Diamonds not sticking...

    Has anyone else had any trouble getting the pink diamonds to stay interested? I search for them every week in recruiting. What I do is I go to Find Prospects. I search for 4 star caliber. View prospects. Then I press Triangle to view more details. Then I hold down the right stick to scroll through the 250 or so 4+Star recruits. I've found a few this way. I add them to my board and give them the full hour of recruiting for that week. After advancing the next week my team is no longer in their top ten.

    Currently using UL Lafayette in the third season of an online dynasty with myself and a friend(Southern Miss). I have UL as a to three star school, in the CUSA conference.

    I've only had 1 out of 4 stick in my online dynasty....so its not just you.

    I wonder if its an issue of correctly syncing the diamond with what is saved online.

      Pink Diamond is one of the Recruiting bonuses. Like the X2(double points), The Lock symbol (two free random interests unlocked).

      The pink diamond is a Recruit that wasn't interested in your school before. But if you add them to your recruit board when this icon appears they will automatically add your school to into their top ten schools of interest. (b/w 5 and 10).

          I've never had it stick in my OD or my offline. I stopped adding them to my board and wasting time on them.

            are u guys sure u have the bonuses option set to "yes" or whatever to get them to work in the dynasty you're in? if you dont have that option turned on, that could explain why they dont work. in my OD i run, i have bonuses turned off....well thats a thought that couldve been easily overlooked

                I had them work early on, but recently I have noticed that they did not stick. As soon as you add them to your recruiting board, you get added to their list, but after the week advances, you are not in their top 10 anymore. Weird.

                  That options turns on the recruiting advisor and the only thing that does is tell you about the bonuses (I believe as I've never bought that DLC). Even with them off, you still get the bonuses, you just need to search for them.

                  With that turned off in my OD and offline dynasty, I still get the X2 bonus, the unlocked pitch bonus, and the instant commit bonus. I can still see the pink diamond and it initially works as it'll add me to their top 10 when I add him to my list, but after that week I drop out of his top 10 again.

                    They are on in mine. Toughest stadium and all works, just not the diamond.
