Is the recruiting money you get for both recruiting cycles?

Yes.

However, if you are at Division 1 and you have a player leave early, you will get more money for the second session. Also, if you cut a player that was recruited by a SIM or the previous coach, before the second session, you will also get the extra money. However if you cut a player you recruited you do not get that money.

chap, is this true for players that SIM recruited in the situation where you would have had 4 walkons, but the SIM gave a crappy player a scholarship so you only had 3?

Yes, I believe so, but I am not 100% sure. I would ask CS just to be sure, but my thinking is that as long as you did not recruit the player you get the extra money.

I dont feel like starting a new thread and the Topic is on point But

IMO a big weakness with 3.0 is that there is not enough money commensurate with what it takes to recruit competitively. Im not expecting to have enough money to fill out an entire 12-man roster with all top tier recruits....but I find it hard to sign more than 10 give you're likely going to need to go all the way with HVs.

Just give out more recruiting $ per opening. Or perhaps award more money per EE opening too. But it takes a little under $5k to sign targets within your territory....and the game is not affording your school that per opening.

Also, another reason to up the $ would be to encourage schools to recruit outside their geographic footprint; which I thought was an emphasis in 3.0? I'd love to target some recruits that match up with me preference-wise....but no chance i can pony up the cash to full-on battle without expecting to have 3+ unused scholarships filled by walkons.
