im still torn about this like I've said multiple times. I like someof the ideas on how recruiting changes.
But really it's not anything I'd want changed, it's like putting a band-aid on a scratch on your knee while you bleed out from the abdomen. You can keep the current recruiting and see a better fix atm:
1. Cut recruiting cash by 50% at D1. I also would like the idea of potentially 100% carryover if all scholarships are filled.
2. Change the prestige formula and weight it more current, allowing low level teams to rise up farther and not let bad big 6 teams stay at their jobs with occasional NT appearances.
3. Firings/Hirings, should not be able ot keep big 6 jobs without consistent NT success, PI bids should drop big 6 schools not help them keep their jobs.
4. Recruit generation, this is the biggest fix imo. Get rid of the 95/95 ath/def starting 5's at power schools. Rarely any school should hit 90/90 ath def for their starting five.
Those are the 4 biggest, fix those and everything else could stay the same and you would see a much better game. It's more lifelike at the higher D1 schools and the lower D1 schools actually have a point besides being a stepping stone.
No one should realyl want or think Cal Irvine should compete for a NC,but it shouldn't require a Super conference to build up low end teams to be able to compete.
1. Agree, not the carryover since it will help out A+ rep teams again, Low-end D1 team need all the money they can spare to battle, but at the same time, won't be able to carryover a lot since you have to hit from everywhere to land good prospects.
2. Agreed.
3. Agreed.
4. Agreed.
5. Make starting gig Worth a lot, cost a lot to offer. Make minutes be Worth something too, cost a lot too. When a guy likes your school, he likes it and it means that you have the edge to grab him or get rid of it. Reduce cost for travelling and recruiting afar from campus.
I'd say mid-major coaches should also be fired if they can't get to the PIT consistently. I want mid-major to play a bigger role in the new formula. And to me.
