Lets give it a shot and see how it goes. Come signing day you can only have the amount of recruits you're allowed and any that get assigned by the CPU you can do whatever you want with.

Updated the OP to outline what we're doing and what everyone's max recruiting numbers are.

I also only have 68 players signed to scholarship and not 70, so shouldn't I have 18 spots?

Yes you should have 18 spots. We should stick with 70 player rosters though going forward because it kinda defeats the purpose if we cut down bellow the max IMO.

That's fine, but if we have a large senior class outgoing and don't sign our max spots, we may be stuck under 70. I had to cut a ton of guys the cpu picked up at the end of last season unfortunately which is why I'm under.

Maybe if a user doesn't sign the appropriate number of recruits that corresponds to the graduating/draft/transfer then they need keep the CPU added recruits. We need to come up with something because a user could just cut down his roster to create bigger draft classes.

[jmoney112287]

That's true. I think we should have a minimum of maybe like 66 to carry over? That allows for some room for error, while preventing people from just cutting a ton.

I'm ok with a minimum # of players on a team. Even when we didn't have good teams, I think most people didn't cut their roster way under 70. The game forces you to have a minimum at each position, so noone will have 50 guys on their roster.
