When you know you are going to have early entries, but fall way behind in recruiting a player...it's just, completely unrealistic and not intuitive.
I will be back once they've fixed the recruiting(primarily the EE issue, but some others too).
I 100% agree that the old engine favored high prestige teams/conferences WAY too much, but now it's the opposite and it's a nightmare.
D+ Air Force or some D-II team shouldn't be able to go into Texas and get a kid in Austin, even if they pour all their money into it if Texas puts in some decent effort. Sure, B+ Baylor/Texas Tech should be able to, but the pendulum swung to ridiculous and was compounded by the completely foolish EE system.
You'll notice most of the people who "like" or defend 3.0 are people who don't have FF's or NC's on their resumes.
I'm still winning/recruiting fine, but I think the game is just dumb/broken now, but hopefully they will fix it and I'll be back.
