Since a large body of Coaches did not beta, could the two managers open up another Suggestion thread to allow those folks to throw a few ideas they may have to improve recruiting?

I was in beta and threw out several ideas, and I want to throw one out to you again(for strong consideration). Do not know if you would look at it here, but as part of a Suggestion thread, it will be seen!

Since I have had nobody agree with me, I will use the post itself to propose one change. I was wanting a recruiting change so that in the last cycle you may convert recruiting cash for scouting cash.
I had to take three walk-ons (Penn State in Wooden D1 BCS Conference and mind you I acknowledge I screwed up the first part of my own recruiting) because at the start of the final recruiting 5pm Cycle last night, I had a total recruiting pool of seven players, of which three were undecided and none of them were scouting to level 2. And the three undecided guys were giving me no choice of offering a scholarship to them. At level one, I will take my chances with a 'Walk-on" that I have an open spot for next year over a better player I cannot scout , and have to "cut " as my own recruit. That ain't going to happen. If you are NOT going to allow for the cash conversion, AT LEAST automatically make anyone remaining in your pool go to level two. I would risk with a little knowledge rather then risk with no knowledge.

I support the suggestion thread.

I'm still in the camp of eliminating level 1 all together but I know that isn't going to happen. But its partly for reasons you say, level 1 info is worthless. You can at least take a shot on a guy at level 2.

Eliminate level 1. No infos.

Totally support this thread as it is needed!

Minor cosmetic/functionality change -- in my opinion the player distribution column on the game plan screen should feature the same +/- click buttons as the practice plan categories feature. If the whole premise to putting them on the practice plan page was to make the site more mobile-friendly, I fail to see the logic that wouldn't make that same concept apply to this row.

Would like to see some discussion from admin regarding sable's decision to take $5000 off the D3 (and D2? All? I can't recall...) scouting budgets. Maybe I'm not using the most efficient model, but my D3 list of players scouted to Level 4 is looking pretty anorexic and making me feel handcuffed. Haven't felt that way at D2, so I think the tipping point is somewhere between the two. We were told during the beta process that this "would be reviewed/revisited." It really wasn't.

And speaking of D2/D3, is there any way I can tell my assistant to look at players NOT in the Top 100 when he goes out to review people already discovered (aside from paying extra to tediously click boxes and hand select exactly which players to scout up?)

Love it. Level 1 is useless.

Suggestion on scouting search: Can we also tell him ONLY look for undecideds.

Please and thank you!
