re: It seems character does matter

But you also have to figure, the % bust chance for a 5 star recruit is much lower than a 3 star recruit. Stars aren't everything but they are a good gauge of the caliber player you're getting. I forgot where I seen the numbers but they compared the amount of players that went to the NFL by star and it was exactly in that order. 5 stars going to the NFL most, followed by 4 stars, 3 stars etc. So yea, stars aren't always accurate but they are a decent representation of the caliber player you're getting...
