    Re: Five Reasons to Be Excited for NCAA 13: #3 Revamped Athletes

    Did they water down the ATH pool in '12? I know in '11 I had success finding many guys that could fit in as OL/DL, WR/CB, HB/S/QB, FB/TE/LB etc.

    I ask this because part of my massive rating edits were giving Pursuit pts to offensive players, and this was a way I used to work around with recruits as my dynasty went on.

      Hell even in real life you get guys who were HS QB and wind up playing DB or LB on college. Does EA not read a single recruiting magazine or website?
      It sounds like you're talking about ATHs in past EA games and that you don't understand what they've done with ATHs in '13.

        what i would like them to do is make it to where they can fill in or move to other spots in season. lets say you have a outstanding jr. RB that gets hurt afther a few games that will be out a few weeks or for the season but you have a SO. ATH playing LB but dont start he has highest ratengs is at LB but when you recurted him his rb rateings where just a bit lower.since your top RB is out for a few games and the Ath is not a starter i can plug him in at RB till my top RB come back.in the past i seen that once you stck them in a spot there stuck at that spot and if you try to change them to something other they where good at the rateings would be way lower then when you frst had the chance too.

          Nah, it's been proven that a lot of ratings don't matter in NCAA, especially when it comes to lineman.

          Countless videos have shown 5'7 170 pound left tackles rated in the 40s for everything completely dominating 6'6 270 pound defensive ends with 90 ratings.

              Good to hear. I actually stopped even recruiting them cuz they just weren't worth it.

                I've never seen a FB/LB or TE/LB ATH ever. I've never seen a QB/LB or QB/ DB ATH. people are saying that i'm wrong on this post a link to some gameplay (in NCAA 12 retail or 13 demos/hands on). in real life players often fit roles somewhat based on size. How many times have we heard that 6'1 175 HS option QB i going to be a db in college. It happens all the time. I've even seen bigger HS QBs get moved to TE or LB. Granted that one is not as frequent but it happens enough for the devs to put it in the game.
