NCAA 14 Recruiting

Hard to do...
I feel accomplished if I sign 15+ kids. When are the best times to make a visit? Do I want to be first or last? A lot of times they commit off their visits and if they don't, whoever last is about to get a 2k point jump.
Any tips on how to sign people?
A lot of times I find those 3* DIR (Diamond In the Rough) guys.
My 2 deep on my lane is averaging 6'5 308 pounds. I go out of my way to recruit the big uglies every year
With the new physics engine, I usually skip any wr 5-10 and down, and all my cb's are atleast 6'1" ( I will skip on the best CB prospect if he's 5'10")
Same with my D'line - no 6'1" 250 in the middle.
Anybody got recruiting tips? I get stretched thin at times ( I have auto subs set to put a new player in when somebody gets to 85 energy, so at the end of the game, I'm still 100% since I rotate so much). I only got 14 out of my last recruiting class and with a new OC this year, I don't get that stamina boost so my guys are wearing out

Wow. That's not overboard or anything.

Because I recruit specifically and how the game was designed?
why would I recruit a 5'11" 260 pound center, when physics comes into play and size and strength matter?
My interior line is like 6'3" 300
strong side I put 6'6" 280's and my weak I got the 6'3 - 6'6 240 - 270 guys
linebackers are all 6'2" and up, helps with the jump ball. My defense has been playing lights out. Just too many 5'10" WR's. I got 3 seniors wide outs that are 6'3-6'5" and run 4.4's.
The computer can't cover them, it's easy semi - easy wins, depending on how my reads are when I play QB

The overboard part is how much time you put into this.

The recruiting is my favorite part of the game, and you just completely blew my mind.

I do what OP does. Takes all of five minutes, maybe. You could argue for ten minutes.

Yeah I find and scout my guys, in less than a half of football.
idk what that guy was complaining about, it's a simple process. I just want to control who I put on the field, is there any crime in that?

Recruiting is simple like it has been every year. I don't even have the game and I can tell you how to do it. Save game. Scout guys. Reload dynasty. Offer a guy you want who is max interest in you. If he commits save dynasty. If he does not commit restart dynasty and offer him again. You can get 90% of the people you want with the reload dynasty option.

Physics and size done matter, you're giving ea to much credit. I've stiff armed DT's stationary With manziel.
You're overthinking it. I got rid off all 25 of my scholarships last year without really trying.

So you could beat anybody on this board, and you're having to ask for recruiting advice?

Can I get handled by you as well?:nohomo: I've always wanted to play against some of the top talent to see how I stack up? I got my record to .500 this year
Posted on 10/21/13 at 2:04 pm to Codythetiger
How about you handle my e-nuts in your mouth? If you can't figure out recruiting in 2 seasons than you might want to play madden so you can just throw money at players
