i disagree completely, as a d3 school i had more battles with d2 schools than d3 schools. you have to step carefully, but if you do, you can still win the large majority of your battles. at the high point, i took a guy off an a- d2 school coached by a good coach, who i would be cautious to battle even at my d2 program. most of the battles are for the top tier of guys i sign, too. so i think you give up pretty much by automatically throwing out any player being considered by a d2 school
If he is a D2 priority recruit, it is just a bad money decision. You not only have to fight their division level, thier recruitment money, but also most likely their sim distance advantage. A later round sim recruit is cheaper, but still has the same disadvantages.
Can you? Yes but, I've rarely found a dropdown that had a higher division sim on them that was worth that much more money compared to another dropdown that wasn't.
