Penalty for cutting a recruited scholarship player Topic

i am in my second season heading into the 2nd phase of recruiting. A freshman I signed is maxing out lower than anticipated. I may have an opportunity to replace him with a much better option. How much of a hit would I take if I cut if I cut my recruited deadweight? I've never dropped a player I recruited for any other team or world. I wasn't sure if it was a modest or significant hit.

Very modest. If you aren’t planning to change jobs next season, you won’t notice it.

agree with shoe - but the penalty for cutting TWO is said to be more than 2X the penalty for one....dont get carried away

Good deal. The redshirt started with low ratings with 4 green and 1 blue in key categories. Although he gained 50 points, he is down to 1 blue and black elsewhere. I've played over 25 seasons across 2 worlds and never cut my own recruit but he looks like deadweight especially if I have the opportunity to upgrade.

If you cut a guy immediately after his freshman redshirt season, you might not see any penalty at all. That's what happened for me a couple seasons ago.
