in Knight!

I have never seen #'s so high! There are over 400 in NY and like 60 in NM! It seems like almost every state has an abnormally high #.

more coaches based on giveaway codes?

Does the number of coaches in a world have any affect on the number of recruits?

Recruit generation is supposed to have something to do with open scholarships. Maybe all the Sims in Knight had their superclass cycle just end. Or maybe Knight had a bunch of freeHD owners last season that ghost shipped into a bunch of walkons whose scholarships carried over to this season.

5,315 recruits ... I think it's usually in the 2500 to 3500 range. The number of recruits generated is supposed to be based on the estimated number of roster spots to be filled from graduating players regardless of whether or not it's human or sim coached. Maybe there were a lot of seniors in Knight this last go around, or maybe HD is trying to limit the ability of D2 and D3 schools to search for the out of state gems. FSS is a lot more expensive now.

and of course I need zero.

NY costs 2750 range just to scout lol.

Also, this just makes me think I have a shot. Which I probably don't, but my team will be tough.

wow I didnt even scout all the states i normally do but have around double the total prospects, give me a few minutes I'll go through and see if I can see how many openings we have

My guess is there are about 4000 openings among all 3 divisions this go around, so the number of generated recruits isn't out of line.

D1 2549/3888 spots filled, 65.56% and 1339 open

D2 1934/3312 spots filled, 58.39% and 1378 open

D3 2390/4608 spots filled, 51.87% and 2218 open

overall 6873/11808 58.21% 4935 open

on a side note I am interested to see how D1 turns out the next 4 seasons with sooo many teams going to be loaded 90/90 ath/def its crazy Im seeing unranked guys who in a normal year would be a top 25 recruit or guys ranked in the 30-50 range and their potential makes them look like a top 10 positional recruit normally, this will for sure cause some craziness the next few seasons

theonlyis What do you mean, there is much more talent in D1 in Knight?

theres so many high level players generated imo. especially down the rankings just because of all the spots open and the number of recruits generated.

wont the next 4 seasons...or at least the last one be wiped out with the change to "New system" and-or postponed for the 2 month lay off during the change?
