    US Army All American Bowl

    ...should definitely be in the game to allow users to evaluate potential recruits.

    It would also be great if during the game, various cutscenes are shown featuring a player choosing which college he will be attending.

    I love that idea. It would add something to the bland Dynasty and let us find some diamonds in the rough or overatted recruits.
    My Teams:
    NCAA FB-Oregon Ducks
    NCAA BB-Gonzaga Bulldogs
    NBA-Portland Trail Blazers
    NFL-Carolina Panthers
    MLB-San Francisco Giants
    NHL-Los Angeles Kings
    Won't change this signature until Oregon wins a national championship (started 3/10/10)

      This would be a cool addition.

      Maybe that is why they got the Alamo Dome done early last year...

        I love the idea of High School All Star games.

          I love this idea and I hope the guys at EA are looking at this stuff so they can add it into the game.

            It really would be great if they put in big events like the USAAAB, the Under Armour Game, the Crab Bowl, the Shrine Bowl, etc...give "evaluations", have the recruiting rankings shift as a result of how players perform, etc. It would add a huge sense of realism to the recruiting aspect (which is one of the biggest parts of Dynasty mode).

              Great idea, more in-depth to the Dynasty Mode, which it needs badly.

                Very similar to a wish I had a few years ago. I thought the cutscenes with top players doing the hats-on-a-table gimmick, would be a pretty neat addition. I doubt anyone would want to sim through the game if they had recruits playing in it and maybe picking their ballcap to indicate they'd won the recruiting battle.

                Fully support this and any expansions on it to enhance recruiting.

                  This would make Dynasty Mode great.

                    As far as I can remember, high school all star games used to be on the college basketball platform. I think the College Hoops series had this feature

                    Anyway, I think adding the high school all star games like the above mentioned bowls would be an easy addition which would really help with recruiting. What if you could find some hidden gems just by playing the games? Finally, it would be awesome to see the players in the black and white All-American unis

                      I love the idea of having recruits put the ballcap on for the school they pick. Maybe make it less obvious for players that wait until National Signing Day to make a decision.

                      I take it a step further. Have the announcers mention and maybe even introduce visiting recruits during your colleges games. When you do in-home visits and call the recruits, cut to the players and coaches talking in street clothes. Bring in all HS all star games.

                      I would suggest the ability to send scouts to normal HS games, not just all star games. This way you can play as guys you want to recruit early in the year and get a feel for what they can do. It was like this on college hoops and I enjoyed it a lot.

                          Why don't they come out with a college head coach game?

                              Great Idea! i was hoping for this in NCAA 10, Lets hope they put it in NCAA 11.

                              This would go nicley with a more indepth recruiting system.
