I changed jobs in Wooden to a team with 5 openings. The previous coach signed 1 in the first cycle but I still had 4 open schollys. Before I took it over, there was a 5 star recruit who was at "very high" in considering the school but when I took over, the recruit was at "very low". Checking the history there is a new coach penalty which seems to wipe out all previous effort. And since he was max recruited with 20 HV and a CV, I could not offer any more.
It's a real disadvantage to change schools. Yes you get the extra recruiting money and you can basically scout every recruit to level 4, but that matters little when 2/3rds of the recruits are gone and all the good recruits are already at "very high" and have had way more attention points allocated to them. On top of that, guys will sign at any time. So some of the attention points and home visits that I've given out are wasted. For instance it took me two turns to allocate attention points to a guy to open recruiting actions. So then I granted 10 home visits but then he signs with the other team on the following cycle and I just lost all of my effort.
My fault for taking a team with this many openings, but this will certainly discourage movement to new teams. Perhaps in D3 or D2 this is not an issue, but it most definitely is at D1.
Wow, I think you need to send a ticket about that.
Wiping out a significant portion of previous credit was designed so that getting a full recruiting budget wasn't too much of an advantage. But wiping out your credit while still listing you as up against the 20 HV/1 CV limit is ridiculous. That has to be an oversight. Just has to be.
As for your second point about needing 1-2 cycles to open up recruiting actions, I totally agree and have been beating that drum for a while now
I just double checked. It's called "New Coach Reduction". Wiped out 573 attention points, 20 home visits and 1 campus visit. I am positive he was at "very high" before I took the job. But I am mistaken on the "very low" part. He was at just "low" with me. Regardless, he signed elsewhere and I had no chance.
I think it is a BUG that you can not reoffer the HV and even the CV (though someone else could do a CV before you and get the 5th one).
I would make sure Customer Service knows that.
I have no issue with all previous effort going away.. But I would like to see them reset the number of visits (so you can redo them). I also think they should leave all recruiting actions Unlocked for recruits who were recruited by the other coach.
Again.. No problem zeroing out the effort initially, but you should immediately br able to put 20 HV back on that guy and reoffer a CV. That is my take.
Are you sure the reason you could not HV was the previous visits or was it just that you needed to unlock HVs?
