Maybe this is just me being a bit sour but has anyone else noticed that when recruiting against the SIM schools, it's been darn near impossible to win against them the past few seasons? I will openly admit that several seasons ago, it was like shooting fish in a barrel to recruit against a SIM school. It was almost too easy to win. I felt like about 4 or 5 seasons ago, it was a pretty level field. You'd win some and lose some.
However, the past few seasons...it's been impossible for me to win against a SIM school. I can tell you in the last 3 seasons, I have lost recruiting battles to SIM schools with an almost 0% success rate. Last season I engaged in 5 battles with SIM Schools and did not win a single one. Season before that I engaged in 12 with SIM Schools...won 1. This season, I've engaged in 10 with SIM Schools...and have already lost 5. I have no problem with it being more competitive, human coaches ran over them for many seasons but I kind of think the advantage is more than overwhelmingly in favor of the SIM schools.
Is it just me being sour for not being successful against them or has anyone else noticed this?
