Are you only doing evals? Or do you call the player, coach also?

Player eval = Scouting trip right?

after the first phone call to the coach to get the backup message phone calls and letters are a waste of money (i.e. no valuable effect)

if you are still using the old eval method there will be schools able to pull him down quicker using the new method.

Ive found it has a very wide range... ive done it with under 10 and ive also had to use over 20. It almost definitely has something to do with how close the player is already to dropping (a recruit would be easier to pull down if he was 2 cycles away from dropping as opposed to 10 cycles)

He's still giving me the backup message and hasn't dropped or pulled yet. Also, signings started with the last cycle, starting to get worried he wont drop at all.
