I did a few forum searches for this topic and looked back several pages and didn't see this topic discussed although I am sure it has been. Apologize for the duplicate post if I missed it because I'm confident it's out there.

I took over a program where the SIM had signed two recruits during the first phase. I was thinking I would just cut the players the next season and replace with something better. However, I just realized the system shows that the players(scrubs) were signed by me - even though I wasn't even at the school for the first recruiting cycle. So I assume I won't get the recruiting points if/when I cut them.
Is this a known nuisance?

It's a known nuisance, but you should still report it. Who knows if they'll ever get around to fixing this bug, but the more squeaky wheels, the sooner it might happen.

Some people have reported getting the resources for those cut, but I did not - granted, that was back in the first season or two of 3.0.

I had this happen to me a few seasons ago when I moved to a new team. I sent in a ticket and the response I got was that since the players show as being recruited by me, they are treated that way as far as being cut. So you would likely take a rep hit and not get additional resources if you cut those guys. They acknowledged that it was a known issue to be corrected.

i decided not to cut them, because in my case I was looking to move up to another team soon and didn't want the reputation hit to hold me back.

well, according to the support ticket response:
"You should be able to rescind scholarships and receive any recruiting assets tied to the open scholarships."

or they were just blowing me off.

we will find out in a week or so.

"should" is a true word.

The reported experience was that although that should happen, it did not always

WUS has never said that the glitch was fixed, but maybe it has been. Near zero glitch correction or other post launch followup on 3.0

yeah, no recruiting resources for the player cut. as expected.
