    EA Needs To Do A Better Job At Naming Recruits

    What's with these white recruits with black names like Tyree or Tyrone and black recruits with the whitest names you can name...Just saying. Make it more realistic...

      Doesn't bother me, I kinda like the high variability of the recruits names

          This reminds me of the scene in "True Romance"
          where Gary Oldman's character comments on Christian Slater's
          character's name being "Clarence".

              Not me. It doesn't look realistic. If I can edit the skin tone or so I wouldn't mind..

                My favorite is when a recruit has the same first and last name lol

                        It does provide interesting talking points though when you get white kids named Charles Muhammad. Hell of a QB for Arkansas State in my game though. I also like people like DE George Bush, etc...

                            I'm sure that they just throw a randomizer in there to assign first and last names to recruits. So you get those funky results.

                            Doesn't bother me. It's always funny to me when I get a white WR named Jerome.

                              I heard of a white guy named Jerome once.
