    I would add to that: These pitches are now just based on more realistic measures. Your school's ratings should make sense now.

    Kind of have this on in the background. Client comes in, hit mute, pretend interest in said client, and read smooth's posts! Thanks

    There's integrity now with your promises. If you break too many promises, you'll have a harder time trying to keep guys from going pro, your promises may not or won't carry as much weight with future recruits when you try to make them promises. I love this change. No more mindlessly spamming promises and only the negative is that they might transfer after a couple years.

    And transfers have been increased, so there will be more transfers this year than in past years.

    Yep, everything they are showing, these grades now should make a lot of sense to us in recruiting and why we have certain ratings and grades. I love these changes they are making to recruiting.

    Oh yeah, and be careful when recruiting someone from across the country. Players can now potentially transfer out if they are feeling homesick.

    Also, to help calculate your pro grade, you can now see what players chose to go pro, and see exactly if and where (what round) they were drafted in the NFL draft.

    Conference prestige is dynamic, will be based on the top 6 teams in the conference. So when people start doing custom conferences and change stuff around, conference ratings will change.

    Academic based on team on the field performance?

    Doesn't make sense if I understand that correctly.

    So Vanderbilt (A+) will be a B in academics after losing football games?

    Agreed. Now if I decide to do a "wacky world" dynasty with a load of conference changes or a geographical dynasty with teams in a conference based on their location and conferences designated to certain regions of the country, they'll finally reflect the team changes in their grades.

    Nice, now you truly have a chance to break into the top 10 of a recruit. He'll start with a couple teams in his top ten for the preseason, if some teams don't recruit them but others do, they'll regenerate their top 10 and bump in the teams that are actually recruiting them and drop down the teams not showing any interest in them.

    That is the way I understood it. First thing I have heard that annoys me. Why not tie it to gpa or something?

    I would guess this would be a really slow changing rating.

    Yep, scouting will reveal their individual ratings and overall (the numbers will become more accurate/exact as you scout them more (so obviously 64% scouted, their numbers will be more accurate than say 20% scouted). Something you can probably do if you want, or if you like/prefer not knowing, skip the scouting all together.

    You get 20 hours to scout in the preseason, 3 hours each week during the regular season to scout players.

    It sounded something sort of like that.

    Athletes are now skilled at up to potentially 3 positions, so they're more useful when recruiting them.

    It's confirmed. If someone is scouted as 6 points OVR or lower then their projected rating, they are officially listed in the game as a bust. And there are sleepers/gems who may increase in OVR by a large amount (+11 in the video) who is way better than projected.

    Triple threat athletes. In the example given, an athlete is 82, but if you move him to QB, he'd by 81, RB he'd be 79, WR he'd be 82. Some players could be RB, WR, DB, etc.
