should i give a guy 2 home visit or a campus visit

I suspect a CV will be more valuable than 2 HV in terms of effort credit, and less valuable than 3.

in various threads from time to time, folks have estimated that the value of a CV is somewhere between 2 and 3 HV

some of this has allegedly been based on look at relative costs

some based on looking at effects

I dont really know, but I usually think of it as apx 2.5 but dont know for sure.

AND of course a guy can take only 5 CV's so it is possible in a battle where multiple schools go all in that not all might be able to do a CV.....possible....not likely

In previous forum threads I've seen the value of a CV estimated as low as 1.5 HVs, but I don't buy that. I think it's closer to 3.

I believe its between 2 and 3. I would always do a CV before 2 HVs.

unless it changed, its HV under 200 miles and CV otherwise (in terms of what is better). if the question is simply 2 HV or 1 CV, its always 1 CV, as the value of CV and HV don't change by distance, only the cost does (i forget the exact number, but the ratio of value on CV to HV is something like 2.6-2.7:1)

There wasn't anything in the BETA testing forums that suggested that the the ratio of value of CV to HV had changed.

reading chap's guide, it looks like the costs changed though. so ignore everything i said except the ratio of value, sorry (1 CV = ~2.6-2.7 HV)

Good to see you back on here gillispie1

I just made a comment about him in another thread. I did a doubletake when I saw the ID.

He's dying to come back.

thanks chap! for whatever reason, about a month ago while enjoying the wildcats do their thing, it kind of struck me how similar their team was compared to the teams i would try to build. not really sure why, but ever since then, this game has come to mind a number of times.

i tried to check the forums once or twice over the past whatever years its been, but i didn't know any of my accounts or passwords and don't have a clue what random emails i used to make some of them. then when i finally got in, i couldn't even post, and i was like, screw it. but that silly post about the point guard got to me, i wanted so badly to be like, it depends! so, i came back a few hours later and paid for a stupid season so i could post my stupid answer :)

do i recall right that if i were to pick up a team, i couldn't actually recruit for an entire season?

Technically, when you pick up a team, you're picking it up on the back end of that team's season and you recruit starting on RS#2, but the season you're paying for is the following season.

For instance,

1. Pick up your team.
2. Recruit for Period 2.
3 New season begins.
4. Period 1 recruiting starts around game 15 or 16.
