Creating and Recruiting My Dynasty Team's Real Commits

[Warren Piecee]

I have embarked upon what may turn out to be a fool's errand. I plan to create and recruit in my dynasty all 19 of Virginia Tech's actual verbal committs for the 2013 class. I know that if the player creates one recruit the game has him committ with little or no trouble. I do not know how this will work with 19 prospects. I would appreciate any and all feedback.

Has anyone tried this before me? If it can't be done and someone tells me so it would save me a lot of work.

I have, but i kind of cheated. I put all the players at the position of kicker, and then during the preseason i would change them to the correct position.

Or you can just sign random recruits and when the season ends, edit them into the players you want to have signed.

That's what I did for Ohio State.

Is progression impacted when one does this?

The one problem with this is that one can't edit home states of recruits.

1. Change recruiting to Freshman
2. Create every player with correct state and position with an overall rating of 70
3. Recruit each player and edit ratings the following season to reflect each recruits attributes.

If the OVR and star rating is different from an actual player will his progression also be different?

I put the recruiting difficulty on the most easy setting. I created my top four prospects. The CPU gave my best recruit to another team. The other three I landed. For the rest I recruited players who had the same playing style and star rating. I tried as best I could to match OVR, height, weight and home state. I did have to do some editing after the recruiting season ended. I simulated the 2012 season. I am now playing the 2013 season and am back to standard recruiting. I am trying to recruit another realistic class and so am using the strategies discussed on the other recruiting thread I started.
