NCAA 13 game recruiting

Just got the game. Haven't had time to play it yet.

How is the recruiting.

I like the game for the Dynasty mode and mainly for recruiting. I simulate most of the games just so I can recruit and build the program.

Look forward to the day (will probably never happen) when they let you work as AD or some form and have stadium upgrades, etc.

So how is the recruiting features this year?

In NCAA 12 I was signing between 7 to 12 5 stars a year. Well not after the first season because Clemson wasnt ranked as high but after winning 2 national titles in a row the next couple of seasons every recruit had you in their list of schools.

It was kinda interesting to see how you could just decimate another schools program just from recruiting. I mean by signing 10 5 stars a year I was taking away recruits from Florida and Florida State and Georgia and they just became average 8-5 teams.

I guess that mirrors reality. We've taken some recruits from those schools the past few years and we beat them on the field now days.


I hope not all ATHLETES on the game are either just CB or WR like they have been in the past.

basically the same except you have scouting hours per week along with call hours. when you scout players you're recruiting it will tell you if a 5 star guy is a "bust" or if a lower star athlete could be a "gem."

I could never get a lot of recruits on the '11 game...

I don't know if I was just recruiting too many guys and couldn't give enough time to the ones I actually had a chance at or what. Either way, I very rarely have been able to get more than 10 guys to commit during the season, and then I have to rely on whoever gets put into the database after the season.

Man I dont know what you were doing wrong then. Maybe you were playing on Heisman level and recruiting on heisman level.

The first year on last years game I did not get many 5 stars because Clemson wasn't ranked that high to begin with. But after I won National titles it became easier.

I would fill the board with 35 guys and just try and devote a little time to each.

i still dont know what works better, focusing on like 10 guys are filling up the entire board.

Well dad gum, you are a better man than I. I enjoy winning to much on that game. I know if I was only signing about 10 recruits a season I would be throwing my controller all over the place. Heck it even got to a point where I was able to pretty much have an entire roster of 5 stars at each position and either the #1 or #2 player at each position.

Thumbs up to you for attempting to recruit at that level.
