    LMAO well there goes the strategy of recruiting 4+ 90+ OVR rated QBs and keeping them from the competition.

    Now we will have to be a little more careful about who we really go after to make sure they fit our schemes.

    So, I'm confused. Do we no longer unlock pitches and sway pitches?

    Correct.

    The top three of the recruit's pitches combined with your rating will determine the bonus you get each week.

    Sort of building off that. Will each recruit have 3 "Deal Breakers" i.e. it takes the 3 pitches they like the most for each recruit and sets a grade for that pitch? Also, is there any way to tell how we stack up on non "Deal Breaker" pitches.

    Say I'm at and academics isn't a "Deal Breaker" but its still a "High" or "Above Average" consideration for the recruit. Will we know that before deciding to target a recruit?

    Looks like a small preview of the top 25 rankings in the Bama coach pic:

    8. S. Carolina
    9. Clemson
    10. Florida
    11. Louisville
    12. LSU
    13. Oklahoma

    Pretty much replicates the final rankings, except K-State and Florida State are gone.

    And so the scouting added last year is now gone as well??? That's too bad if true because I didn't mind the scouting process.

    No scouting is still in there.

    When you're looking at a recruit on the board, you'll see if you fail a Deal Breaker or not.

    (As of March) there was a Coach Skill that enabled you to "bust" through the Deal Breaker. Need to see if that is still one.

    So does the prospect's skill + category importance determine the minimum grade a team needs to talk to him?

    In other words, I'f I'm Oregon and I have a and QB I'm interested in, will the Dealbreaker minimum grade be higher for the 5-star prospect? (Let's assume both QBs have Playing Time as HIGH or VERY HIGH.)

    I'd like to think that a 2/3-star QB would be much more willing to consider going to a top school and sitting than a top prospect.

    I am not sure on that. Let me see if I can check into that.

    Playing time is based on the depth chart. Assuming the 3 isn't a gem and the 5 isn't a bust, the 5 is more likely to play based on ratings thus his playing time grade won't be as low as the 3 star. Since the 3 has lower ratings, his chance of playing is lower and will probably look somewhere for playing time.

    Got clarification from one of the devs...

    Deal Breakers are random and only a percentage of all the prospects will have one associated with them. They will only appear and relate to a prospect's top interest. The grade is absolute across the board, with C+ being the breaking point.

    So if playing time is the top interest of both a *** and ***** QB, chances are that only one will have a Deal Breaker and most likely it will be the 5 star QB.

    Does the top game management skill have something to do with 4th downs?

    I think it's like a 4th Quarter boost but not 100% certain.

    Ok, thanks. I was hoping it would be that way. Looks like recruiting with lower prestige schools is gonna be harder.

    I'd guess we'll see a lot of gameplay at E3. Wouldn't be surprised if the demo came out mid-June (June 11 or 18th) so we could be looking at exactly 2-3 weeks.
