Installing a 5* limit??

Now that we are powerhouse programs, do you think we should install a limit for 5* recruits.

The last two years some of our teams have come close to getting 5 or more 5* players.

This year for instance, we have 3 teams with 4 5* and one team with 6 5* and a possible 7th.

what do you all think?

These super-classes are starting to get more and more common.

I think a 5 5* limit is a good standard. But that is just my opinion

personally i dont think we should, i mean there is no limit in real life to how many 5 stars a school can sign.. and more than likely we will all battle each other for a majority of the 5 stars anyway... thts just me though, and most of yall have been around a lot longer than me.. so yall should have more say than i do

I don't think we should personally. I'm the user with 6 5*s but I won't be a 6* prestige school ANY time soon, I just am a good recruiter. The rule won't bug me because often 5* players are busts. IRL does NCAA sanction teams for the amt of high calibre players get?

nobody has ANY more say than you Jeff.

was that sarcastic? lol

Not even a little bit. Your participation and activity make you just as important as the next user.

i was just throwing it out there.

But thats the thing Macc, not attacking or anything..but your are a 5* program, and bringing in 6 5*, when there are 6* programs, such as me lol, that is lucky to get 2-3.

You say your a good recruter, but what can you really do on this game when it comes to recruiting. Last year you had low numbers, and mentioned that you had tons of time to spend on the high ranked guys, this year you have 16 schollies.

You have 13 commits or so, and 6 are 5 *? that is an insane percentage. I just don't get it, unless you are just targeting the 5 *'s and using 3 hours on them lol, and then slow play the 4 * recruits that will fill your needs.

I don't mind sharing my strategy at all. But you kind of hit the nail on the head. The guys I really want, I pump at very least two hours into. That's usually all the game allows you to I talk to them until they hang up on me. Some garner more interest than others, like that SS Sterling Reynolds and CB Troy Curry obviously really wanted to go to Ole Miss because their interest bar jumped full after the first week. I schedule visits AS SOON AS I POSSIBLY CAN so that I have the best chance to sign them early and show them what my school can offer. The recruiting limit makes things much easier to sign better recruits because now I only keep the ammount that I can sign on my list. Some want to go elsewhere and I don't have time to spend on them early so they are removed from my list. While I continue to look through the database every week to see which players have improved and what kinds of players I want and need so I can find the very best players for my program.

I think if we install this rule we'll have to throw out the recruiting limit because the recruiting limit we currently have is the reason teams like mine will consistently have 5*s because why would I have 35 guys on my list when I can only sign 17? Instead of keeping those extra guys that I think will fly under the radar on my list, I make notes on the side to remind myself as I remove others who users and CPU teams are heavy on.

alright fair enough.

I do some of the prioritizing with recruiting minutes to the guys I really want, but I might have to rethink it a little when it comes to filling my board initially.

their is already a recruit limit on 5* players that u enforced macc. it was 5. read the old post that i bumped up.

Hmm dang, I forgot about that. What should the punishment be?

And I doubt I have time for the Big Dogs OD. I don't have any teambuilder slots on my current PSN account.

you don't have to use teambuilder?...if you just post 5 recruits they can be added to 9's current roster if that makes it easier...
