additionally, since it seems that the cpu teams only target the recruits who are ready to play and not the work in progress recruits (regardless of star rating), its actually causing a smaller talent pool for the cpu to choose from, which makes it harder and harder for the cpu to compete with us.
I agree.
I see 4 or 5 star players with the ratings of a 3 star player. I rather see them come in as a 3 star player, then grow into the star players. You will see the Mark Ingrams, Tyrann Matheiu's, and RG3 of the NCAA world. If Those 3 were graded by NCAA 12 scouts, they would have been 4 or 5 star players coming out. You will see smaller schools with one of these players(that are 3 stars with the potential of the 4 or 5 star player) eventually become schools like Baylor or Stanford.
I would like to see the recruits have personality. I would want to see them have preferred Playstyles. When I see a QB with average THP and high THA, I see a spread QB. When I see a 5'10 or smaller Rb with great Speed, I see a Run-1st Spread RB. I would like to see players go to teams they fit more.
