Not each week. But 3-4 times a season seems like it'd be sensible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I do full write-ups of every prospect at the end of the season. I usually like to do the recap then because I can see the full recruiting class. Also, I don't really know where guys might end up playing until I know all of the recruits I've landed. What details would you like to see during the season?

Mostly like what their scouted overall is, if they're gems/busts, where you rank on their list, and if you're rising/falling/staying put on their school rankings.

He’s only a 69 ovr but he’s 6’7” 327 lbs. also my two starting Guards are both Freshman, so he won’t see the field for years. Also you have to remember I'm only a 3 star program. I can't go toe to toe on most of the high end recruits. I have to take what I can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the deck stacked against me, I was obviously rusty after not playing the game for months, it was a really tough opponent, and I was on the road. Not all of it was my fault though. My defense missed a ton of tackles, and their RB & QB ran through a bunch of arm tackles. My WRs also dropped an incredible 9 passes in this game. Nine! Six were by WR M Hawkins alone. HB E Miller was having success but I had to abandon the run because I got behind early. It was a fairly slow defensive game for awhile until the 4th quarter went crazy. WR B O'Connor hit some big plays deep, and WR Little converted a few key first downs, but my offense struggled for most of the game. They sacked me 6 times, I had no time to throw the ball. Add that in with the drops, my 1 INT I threw and I got in a hole I couldn't recover from. I was getting pummeled until CB J Smith took a KR to the house. That sparked my team, and CB P Dunlap came up with a huge INT on the next possession. I got it within 10 points at that time. CB R Brewer also landed an INT later in the 2nd half. My defense as a whole was very disappointing though. They were just more talented than me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya I'm not looking for a huge recruiting class this year. I only have 11 graduating Seniors, so there won't be very many roster spots available. I don't think its realistic to over recruit a ton and cut like 10 former recruits, so I'm going for high quality class class this year. I doubt anyone goes pro early on my roster, but the computer for some reason stuck that crappy WR Cooper on my roster last year who I plan on cutting, so I have 12 roster spots available. I've already signed 4 guys so I have 8 more scholarships available. I might over recruit by 2-3, but not more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKnight82 Posted August 30, 2018 Author Share Posted August 30, 2018 So I've been reading online, and apparently although the game servers are back up, the website where you can recruit online is dead and gone. This really sucks as I did all of my recruiting on the site, it was much easier to manage than in the game itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
