Its hard for me to image a one star prestige school being able to get by without having quite a few 1 star players, unless you are recruiting on Freshman difficulty.

I think you need to look for specialists. All those guys will have a low Overall, but they could have some specific skills that allow them to be solid contributors.

In my Nebraska dynasty I had to go after a one star kicker because I lost out on all the higher ranked players, but I got lucky because he had a Kick power of C+. His power rating is in the 70's now, that is great for a one star player.
