Instead of making recruiting more detailed I wish that EA would enable you to make the offseason more detailed with other features.

I like to play with the small schools and build them up. It would be cool to be able to add to do stuff like add to the stadiums amd improve weight rooms.

I'd like for them to add the business side of the football to it as well where you build a booster base (and keep them happy) and make $$$.

Maybe in 2012

Same here, I built East Carolina into a powerhouse. The only thing that sucks is that recruiting is so damn time consuming.

But you're expecting too much from EA. Presentation overhauls, slight gameplay tweaks, and different camera angles are what their primary concerns are.

x2 on the recruiting taking too long. It takes just as long to recruit as it does to play a game.
It would be nice if you could hire your coordinators on offense and defense. they could have ratings for certain abilities like coaching certain positions and recruiting. Then you could just send them out to recruit the plyers you add to your board. In the off season, based on how good your offense or defense was and how good of a recruiting class you bring in it would increase/decrease their ratings. Once they would get really high ratings other schools could hire them for head coaching jobs.

I would definitely like some of that to be incorporated, but I don't know how easy some of it would be.

If it's a school with a stadium in place (not a generic one), I don't see how they could really make a lot of changes to it because of the detail that goes into each one. Although I guess you could scrap it and build a new, bigger one at some point. You could also have the option to start with a generic stadium at the beginning that is customizable.

I really like the aspect of putting money/time/attention into certain areas. Build up your education status, get a bonus when going after smarter students or better awareness progression. Same for other areas like TV, athletic facilities and so on.

I really think it's long overdue to have O and D Coordinators in the game with some impact on the field and progression. Although Madden has it and I've never really seen difference between good and bad coaches except a few minor ratings bumps. A recruiting coordinator could have a major impact though.

I would also like to see more of a team chemistry aspect to the games. Two fifth year seniors (QB and WR) should have more success with audibles and completions to each other than a couple of freshmen. I think it's hard to make these things noticeable without being too impactful on the average game.

i know since the game is endorsed by the NCAA you'll never get the ability to let your "friends of the program" loose but i thought we were talking realism so that should play a role i think along with jesus shuttleworth-like recruiting scenarios.

they let you hire your coaching staff on NFL head coach, and i think they should do that with the madden and ncaa versions (well in madden you get OC, DC, ST, trainers).

It would also be cool if you could export some of the head coaches on NCAA to Madden just like the draft class.
