Scouting + Recruiting + Conference cash + prestige Topic

1) Scouting seem to be a problem. Hawaii, how do they choose where to scout? Puerto Rico, same. If they go international, they know a lot of teams will do the same, so they have no edge. If there is no talent in Hawaii or Puerto Rico, the team is basically dead. And as we already said, three levels scouting is enough. No need for 4... And we need some sort of rule so that F players don't go to D1 camps. It's like getting someone in your backyard and inviting him to your camp... They do scout high schools...

2) Recruiting seems to be a bit like it was before. The considering page is a lot more realistic and fun. You can see how it is unfolding. The attention points truly will fix some poaching problems for sure. And it will prevent high prestige teams from getting all the top recruits. They will either have to battle or choose which player they prefer. I don't know the impact of promising a starting spot, but it could be big also, especially for kids who want to start right away. It is an improvement for sure. But, I think the signings should start one day earlier. The wait on recruiting is too long IMO.

3) Conference cash : Seble needs a way to give some more cash to conference that do well. We all would like to get the same system as we did before. Since recruiting changed, attention points being really important, big classes having less impact, I don't think conference cash as the same impact as it did before, but it is still something people want to see. We need reasons to be in a full conference.

4) I don't know how prestige will work in this recruiting time... I can't wait to discover. Is this a multiplier or some sort of bonus team get. Again, prestige importance does drop because you have to make choices and by doing so, you can't get all the top players... But how will it work, who knows? One thing I find important though is that prestige, division levels need to have boundaries... I would not want to see a D- team get a five stars prospect in D1. I would not want a D3 team to get a 560 D1 player all ready to destroy the league and so on. We need cap everywhere to prevent illogical stuff.

For Hawaii, this dilemma is not new-- it's part of the game/problem/challenge to coaching there (I'm at Chaminade in Naismith). There are usually 20-30 recruits there total each season, and 2-4 maybe worth going for at d2, 0-2 at d1 I'd guess. But since that can be across all positions, there is no way to know who you'd want any given season would match up with decent available players.

On the plus side, when there's a local monster, he's all yours!

swapping Hawaii and Utah would make a lot of sense. Utah is actually in the Pac and Hawaii just drags down the Pac as well. wold make things interesting with Utah and Colorado closeby. However you then get rid of the best non power school in Utah which I guess isn't a big deal if parity is something "fixed" in this update.

they should just get rid of level 1 scouting. split up the current level 4 into the new level 3 and 4 where 3 gives you numerical values and potential but not high+/- and level 4 gives you high+/- and low+/- then level 3 is perfectly sufficient and level 4 makes it more or a preference if you want to go in depth.

I believe prestige was increased effects a little bit, not sure how much as it was already a pretty good multiplier already. Has there been any comments by seble on D2/D3 prestige affecting anything yet.

Not sure how you thinking recruiting is similar to it is now, i mean you get CV and HV but that is about it?
